My Project

These fluorescent light colors will ensure my class environment is calming, while the color pencils ensure students can get creative with unit projects without cost inhibiting their expression. By installing fluorescent lights, there will be fewer headaches and no unnecessary overstimulation. A lot of my assessments are project-based, and students need to create and describe visuals. By having a class set of colored pencils, their creativity won’t be limited by what they cannot buy. These projects vary by unit and include items such as family trees, dream houses, classroom items, and so forth.
