Keeping the Classroom Calm and Clean

Help me give my students a space to feel comfortable, clean and calm.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Fields's classroom raised $360

My Project

This project is intended to create a sense of calmness within the classroom as soon as my students walk in to start their day. This year I incorporated a lot of green decor and lights which helps students concentrate and feel like they are in a safe space. The light covers help with the artificial glow of the lights and the tree is something that they can decorate for each season which I have done on my wall and is in my picture. They really enjoy taking part in the room and seeing their own work displayed.

Students need a clean, comfortable place in order to learn effectively.

Please help me celebrate them in a natural space designed to inspire growth!
