My Project

I try to cultivate a comfortable classroom environment. I believe that even small decorative additions to the classroom can stimulate and inspire. Being in an environment that is warm, welcoming, and has evidence of care sends a message to students that they deserve to work in cool spaces. Therefore, I will use the materials in this project to add to the aesthetics of the classroom. These items include the lava lamp, movie poster frames, and floor lamps.

The remaining materials in this project are simply classroom essentials.

Pencils and paper towels are always in high demand in any classroom.

Ms. Ranchel
Grades 9-12
