My Project

I want my students to enter our classroom and feel relaxed and ready to learn. Many of my students have complicated home lives but are kind, loving, and eager to learn.

I am hoping to make steps to make my classroom both aesthetically pleasing and organized, so as to keep my students focused on their learning in a comforting environment.

The colors I chose are soft and soothing and should help my students learn. This project is one of many small steps I am taking to make my classroom the just-right environment for my students.
