When it's time for independent reading, I noticed students did not enjoy just sitting at their desk to read. One student even expressed how she enjoyed reading, but wanted a comfy, cozy spot to read independently. But imagine how inviting it would be to have comfy pillows in a reading corner to sit on while enjoying a good book! The problem is that right now we don't have ANY cozy spots. I know that if I fix this seating problem with comfy pillows to help create a reading corner, my students will be flocking to it to read!
A classroom should be a welcoming place where children feel comfortable and enjoy learning. With only straight-back chairs at desks and the hard floor as seating, my students often dislike tasks that require a lot of sitting still, like independent reading practice. With your help, I can create a reading corner that will be our room's most inviting spot by providing a comfy seating option! Soon we'll need a waiting list for the independent reading center!
