My Project

A donation of bulletin board materials, LED string lights, and fluorescent light covers would make a meaningful difference in my classroom environment. Bulletin board materials help create an organized, engaging space where I can display student work, reinforce lessons, and promote a sense of pride and community. LED string lights add a warm, calming ambiance that helps students feel more comfortable and focused, especially during independent work or quiet reading time. Fluorescent light covers help soften the harsh overhead lighting, reducing eye strain and creating a more inviting, soothing atmosphere. Together, these items would help transform the classroom into a welcoming space that supports learning, creativity, and well-being.
