A reading corner is a comfortable and inviting space in the classroom for students to sit and read. It is different from a library because it is a corner that belongs to the students and is a part of the classroom where books are easily accessible to them. Students have the complete freedom of choosing books for themselves and reading from a range of attractively displayed books. Therefore, I want my students to be able to get lost in a book, within an inviting and cozy classroom reading space. Please help support our having a special reading space for all - by allowing for calming beanbag seating and calming comfortable pillows.
