My Students

Headaches, headaches, headaches. My students come to me all the time with headaches. I never stopped to think about how such a small lighting change could have the potential to create such a lasting effect on my students.

My students work long and hard to get their work completed with the highest accuracy possible.

With ample lighting they could see better, feel better, and show improved academics! My students will be able to graph the energy and electricity that they save each day!

My Project

I can not miss this opportunity to give my students a personal sense of accomplishment. My students will see that they can save energy, save electricity, and do their part to help save the environment. I plan to put CFL bulbs in each of the lamps. This will not only save energy and electricity, but it will also soften the mood in my room. The lighting will not be as harsh, and my students will have a better chance of going through their day headache free!

Your donation will help ensure that my students have the best learning environment possible.

It will also serve as a hands on way to show my students that by taking care of their environment that it will in turn take care of them.
