My Project
Incorporating innovative lighting solution, such as natural light, adjustable LED fixtures, and color-changing bulb, in classrooms can create a more inviting and stimulating atmosphere. These versatile lighting options enhance focus, boost creativity, and promote well-being, allowing students to thrive academically. Studies show that proper lighting can reduce eye strain, improve mood, and increase retention, making it an essential component of modern educational design.
The square floor pillows will allow students more choices for sitting on the floor being able to move around the room.
The back loungers will add more flexible seating options for my calm corner. This adaptability fosters comfort, encourages movement, and promotes collaboration among peers, ultimately enhancing engagement and motivation.
Research shows that flexible seating can lead to improved focus, creativity, and academic performance, as students feel more in control of their learning environment. It is important to embrace flexible seating to cultivate a more inclusive, interactive, and inspiring classroom where every student can thrive!
It is also that time of year where classroom essentials run out. The student and I use Expo markers every day in math. We are also in need of markers as they dry out or get used through that the year.
