My Project

I am requesting pillows, blankets, Squishmellows and water bottles for our reading area.

My students love to have a choice of where to sit when reading.

I am requesting blankets, pillows, and Squishmallows to create a comfy reading area. In order to create an inviting reading area, I am requesting these items as they are what kids value.

The bottles are to give to a couple of kids who need water bottles. My students are allowed to have water at their desks. These bottles are reusable and will lessen the need to use cups.
