Better Lighting for Kindergarten Bathroom No More Scary Fan

Help me give my students better lighting in their bathroom. We currently have a bathroom light that turns on a very loud and scary fan that my students really dislike.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My kindergarten students use the bathroom that is located in our classroom all day long. This bathroom however has a very loud and scary fan that turns on when the light is turned on. My students are five and are very afraid of this bathroom especially my students with special needs. Since this is such a topic in our class, some students have even made up stories about this fan. So instead of using the bathroom in our classroom many of them request to go to the bathroom across the yard, which takes up a lot of our classroom time.

These lights will solve this scary fan problem and allow for maximum learning time to take place.

My goal is to make this loud fan problem go away and therefore have my students learn with better ease, knowing they are safe.
