My Project

The items selected will be used for calming the classroom many times during the day. My classroom consists of many types of disabilities including autism, anxiety disorders and many that need support in their social emotional well-being.

My students find the ceiling lights harsh and prefer to have low lights throughout the classroom.

These small lights will benefit each of my 5 groups and the two work tables. My goal for this project is to have a calmer setting for my students.

My students are very kind and compassionate. They love to talk with each other throughout the day but also love having calmness many times during the day. They are a sweet bunch!!
