My Project

The goal for this project is to transform an empty space in our school into a house room where students and classes can celebrate and learn together. This project will help provide them with an environment that nurtures their individuality, encourages collaboration, and motivates them to achieve their personal and academic goals. The decorations and seating I’m requesting will create a welcoming and stimulating classroom atmosphere where students feel valued, safe, and comfortable. Research shows that classroom environment affects student motivation and engagement. The decorations will promote a positive, inspiring learning environment, featuring the color themes for the different houses our school has.
