My Project

Please help my students explore light and how shadows work. Floor lamps are great when the over headlights are just too bright and loud.

Flashlights are great for reading books in the dark to encourage silent reading time and a life for books.

I have a rowdy group, using a light up breathing tool is a great to breathe and relax.

Since the room get dark at nap, nightlights are great. We do loose power and when we do the room is so dark. Having emergency lights will be great to help ease any anxiety.
