My Students
My students are so creative, funny, and full of personality. They come into school every morning excited about learning and anxious to see what they get to do. They try their best and are eager to show what they know. So many of them will even complete extra work on their own at home just for fun! It really makes me proud that my students are taking charge of their own learning at such a young age. We have so much fun together and they make me smile every day!
My Project
My students love to learn in a calm environment and read in a cozy spot. Lighting can help create a calming environment and a cozy spot where my students can focus on the task at hand. A lot of my students are also more focused on their learning when they have something in their hands that they can focus their energy into. The Light Cube, Fidgets and liquid timer, included in this project will help add to the calming environment I know my students learn best in, and they will also help my students focus their energy into an object that does not distract them while they are trying to reach their highest potential.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
