My Project

During Circle Time, our class created the decorations they would like to make our classroom the ultimate dream. Of course, our students described clouds, LED lights, flowers, and more as the prettiest room ever. This project would make their literal dreams come true and help our students learn about colors, flowers, clouds (the water cycle), and counting.

Research shows that utilizing LED lighting properly can boost focus, assist in concentration and relaxation, and improve students' overall mood and behavior.

Our students will love the way the LED lights with connectors line the walls of our classroom. The LED cloud lights will be hung near their student work and help provide a calming atmosphere. Another piece of research I found shows that, unlike fluorescent lighting, LEDs are mercury-free and 100% recyclable—making them the most environmentally safe lighting option.

The flags, rhinestones, soft chenille letter patches, pressed flowers, and clipboards will be used to transform our classroom's artistic dreams into reality! Rhinestones can add sparkle and visual interest to classroom projects and displays. They can embellish student artwork, posters, or bulletin boards, making them more engaging and attractive. Rhinestones can also be incorporated into activities such as counting and sorting for younger students to make learning math concepts more hands-on and fun. Our clipboards will provide a portable writing surface that allows students to work comfortably on various tasks inside and outside the classroom.

Overall, these items offer opportunities for hands-on learning, creativity, and personalization in the classroom, enriching the educational experience for our students.
