My Students

All of my students have their very own unique personalities. They are eager to learn and work hard to be successful. Our class is a family and we celebrate success together, as well as support each other when we struggle.

In our classroom, everyone has a voice.

Each student contributes their thoughts and personal experiences into lessons, and because of this, we have a strong classroom community.

My Project

We spend hours inside of the classroom. The lighting in our room are all fluorescent lights, and we have very little natural light coming into the room. Please help me dim the harsh lights with covers.

I want to create a warm and peaceful learning environment with fluorescent light covers.

These covers will help with student moods, behavior, and performance.

Filtering the bright lights in our classroom will create a cozy space to aid with calming and focus. Our classroom is our home away from home, and I want to create the best space for my students to do their best learning!
