Light Up My Learning

Help me give my students light that will help to promote an engaging learning environment. These lamps and color shades will encourage creativity and also help to put the students in a peaceful state of mind to learn.

My Project

I want my room to be a cozy place where my students want to be. The harsh florescent lights are hard to battle but I think these light shades/covers will not only tamper the light but change it into a calming room that both sooths and encourages our learning through environments and habitats with both sea and land light covers.

I want to light up my classroom learning by encouraging calming colors and pictures to help the students get creative as well as teach them responsibility by being in charge of the lights and settings.

This will help to promote classroom jobs, responsibility, support our science curriculum by bringing habitats into the classroom as well as helping to create a soothing classroom setting with various forms of lighting.

This will help to promote academic growth in all areas or so is my hope/dream.
