My Project

I want to create an environment that is welcoming, comforting and encourages my students to grow socially, emotionally, and academically upon their return.

This has inspired me to re-create our classroom library.

Our current bookshelves are falling apart and chipping after many years of use. The bent shelves make it difficult to store our book bins. These new shelves will allow me to create a space that is calming and allows students to focus on exploring the texts they are reading. It'll allow me to organize our books neatly so that students are able to easily find books that interest them to read.

Thank you for helping me create a space that is a home away from home for my students. They deserve this and so much more after all they've bravely overcome this year!
