My Project
Imagine walking into a classroom that feels more like a cozy, creative studio than a traditional school space — warm lighting, calming colors, and inviting decorations that spark imagination. That’s the kind of environment I want to create for my students.
My goal is to transform our classroom into an ambient learning space where students feel safe, focused, and inspired to learn.
Many of my students face challenges outside the classroom, and a calm, thoughtfully designed environment can make a world of difference in how they engage with their education.
To achieve this, I’m requesting a lamp with adjustable brightness, green plants, and decorative items.
My students are bright, curious, and eager to learn — but many come from underserved communities and carry emotional and academic burdens. A well-designed space can help them regulate emotions, focus better, and feel more connected to the learning process.
Research shows that the classroom environment has a direct impact on student learning. Ambient lighting and visually appealing spaces help reduce stress and stimulate creativity. This project will help create a more inclusive and supportive space where every student can thrive.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
