My Project

Hello and thank you for considering helping me and my students.

I would like to create a space for my students to sit comfortably and read.

As a reading teacher, it can be hard to get my students to just read. I am hoping that if I can create a space my students would want to be, that it will encourage them to pick up a book and get lost in a whole new world.

The fundamentals of reading are necessary in every aspect of life. Students who read will traditionally do better in school. I find it so important to try and encourage that in my students.

The other items I am hoping for are books and general supplies necessary in a classroom.

Again, thank you for taking the time to see what I am trying to do.
