My Project

I am a first year teacher with fourth grade students and I would love to create a cozy reading corner for my fourth grade students.

I would love the bucket chair for my larger fourth graders to fit comfortably and also the carpet would be a great place just to sit for a great book!

The soft floor seat would add another flexible seating option and go nicely with the bean bags that I already have for the space.

My students are just becoming interested in reading for enjoyment so I would like a space that they can be comfortable in the classroom.
