Sit Chill & Read

Help me give my students an invitation to read for pleasure. Seating options in the classroom are integral to engagement with our in-class library and independent reading time. Bean bags will encourage students to sit with a book.

My Students

Every day, the students I work with teach me something about the world and myself. I am constantly reminded of how fortunate I am to participate in the formation of young people that are already expressly dedicated to public service. Since they are students at a magnet high school, they have jumped through a few hoops to get a seat in my class, and they participate with intensity which distinguishes them from students I have worked with in other school communities.

In short, my students rock and I want to do everything I can to support them as they find their voice, take a standpoint, and advocate as an agent of social change.

High school is challenging and adolescence is full of obstacles, so I am compelled to facilitate their self-actualization through academic rigor and individual validation.

My Project

These Chill Sack Bean Bag Chairs will provide optional seating for students during class. Comfortable seating will be located by the in-class library bookcases and by-design will encourage students that reading for pleasure is a thing.

Curling up with a good book is available to everyone during independent reading time in English class.

Students will look forward to their turn to sit in the fun, playful, and welcoming cushions. The soft micro-suede and bright colors will be happy-making elements that contribute to making our classroom a destination where students want to be.
