The fluorescent lighting in my classroom is quite cold and uninviting. I would like to purchase some filters that will create a warmer, more inviting environment. I often turn the lights off when they are working to prevent headaches from the harsh lights above, which then makes the room too dark for reading. The filters can dull the light, creating a lighter mood but with adequate lighting. I would also like to purchase some new flexible seating options for my class. A few of my students have an ADHD diagnosis and would benefit from a variety of seating options. These chairs would encourage movement in their seats, allowing them to wiggle and move around while working. They would be able to stay seated, while also getting the movement their bodies need.
