The Description

With these funds I will... create a welcoming, inspiring space for my students to explore literature. We will be doing several novel studies in our classroom this year. These funds will be used to buy quality high-interest books for students, as well as bean bag chairs and a rug for students to read more comfortably on. When students are excited about and comfortable in their enviroment they tend to function far more productively. I believe that for students to be life-long learners and leaders they must develop an enjoyment of reading early on. I can't wait to set up this safe space for my students to dive into literature.

Back Up Plan

If we don't reach our entire goal we will... have to buy fewer books. I would love to have full class sets of two high interest novels, but if we don't reach our entire goal we will just buy one set of novels.
