Goal

Providing flexible seating for Reading will increase student achievement. Students will show learning gains in Reading and 65% will be proficient to help our school be an "A" School. 

 

Category

Class Furniture - Carpets, choral risers, transitional seating/desks, etc. 

 

What will be done with my students

Students will be given flexible seating, such as bean bags, so they will have opportunities to sit in a comfortable place and read an AR book. Increasing opportunities for students to read independently will also increase academic performance on the FAST Test in May 2027. 

 

Benefits to my Students

Most of my students do not have a "comfy" place at home to sit and read a book. I hope to create a learning environment in my classroom that encourages students to grab a "good" book and just read. I hope to develop a love for reading in each student that carries on with them for the rest of their lives and helps improve their academic performance on the FAST in May 2027 to 65% proficiency. 

 

Budget Narrative

I have requested 7 bean bags for flexible seating during independent reading time. These items will give students a place to read and develop a love for reading, which will increase student's academic performance in all areas.
