Glow Room

Help me give my students an engaging space to change themes monthly and cover a variety of topics.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Florin's classroom raised $1,167

This project is fully funded

My Project

Imagine walking into a glow in the dark classroom and being tasked with solving various problems in math, or reading by flashlight.

Students will decode secret messages from invisible ink, use jenga to pull colored pieces and solve math problems that correspond with the colors, or writing a secret essay with invisible ink.

Students will be more engaged in learning.

The goal for this project is to get students excited for learning and give kids new experiences they wouldn't typically get in their classroom. This project will also be able to be used my a variety of teachers to impact more students.
