My Project

The decor I have chosen to use are succulents with pastel colors with mint green as the main color. That's my inspiration for the title of my project. The carpet tiles will be placed in my reading corner for a softer seating area.

Student's with dyslexia benefit more with a calming color palette because it is welcoming, soothing, less distracting, and helps my students to see the black print better.

Pastel colors also give a sense of tranquility and less chaotic. Students who have a hard time focusing will benefit.
