Creating the Perfect Book Nook!

Help me give my students the perfect seating and calming area for their new classroom library!

My Project

My first project submitted was to help get my students appropriate reading materials at their levels. Now I'd like to fully complete the project by providing them with flexible, comfortable seating in a calming and relaxing corner of my classroom. As an interventionist, I must help teach my students that reading is something they can do successfully. This project provides them with an area that is so much more than a standard classroom - it gives them an area to fully escape into a novel and fall in love with the art of reading.

Grades 6-8
