Calm Lights and Comfy Spaces

Help me give my students lamps and a rug to create a comfortable learning space.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Brown's classroom raised $228

My Project

Please help me give my students some lamps for calm lighting and a rug for our reading area.

Many students are significantly bothered by overhead fluorescent lighting.

I want to light my classroom with lamps and natural lighting instead of turning on those fluorescent lights. With these calm LED bulb lamps, my students will be able to focus on reading and learning with fewer headaches or distractions from the buzzing of the lights.

Additionally, please help me get a new rug for our reading area. My students love to grab a book and a settle into our reading area to read it, but we need a new rug. With a new rug and calmer lighting, I know my students will be able to get comfortable and learn!

One thing I love about my students is how they can get so comfortable in our classroom. When they are comfortable, they ask more questions, and that leads to learning! Thanks for helping me help them!
