Creating a Peaceful Environment using Lighting

I strongly believe the classroom environment to be the third teacher. This year my focus has been on creating a peaceful and welcoming environment for us all to discover and learn in. Soft lighting, natural materials and quiet, private work areas are helping to create a calm and productive classroom.

This is the light hanging above our Art table. We love the soft light it gives off. I made it by tying some hanging Christmas lights to a cane hoop.
