Original Grant Overview
Goal
The goal is to help all students at Herbert Cambridge Elementary School discover a lifetime love of reading by providing a cozy, safe place in the Media Center to enjoy their favorite books.
What will be done with my students
When students come to the Media Center, they will have time to look for books they want to read and check out. While they are looking and/or after they have checked out their book(s), they can go to the HCE Cozy Reading Nook, find a comfy place to sit, and curl up with their book to read.
Benefits to my students
"Today a reader, tomorrow a leader.” – Margaret Fuller
Providing an inviting space where the student can choose and read about what is interesting to them will build a foundation for the love of reading which will, in turn, improve fluency, expand vocabulary, and build reading stamina and confidence in themselves. Developing reading proficiency is essential for achieving success in school, not only in reading but in all content areas.
Budget Narrative
