By Zoey Bros One of the main things you’ll see when entering the Instagram teacher world is very colorful and stimulating photos of beautiful classroom decor inspiration. If you asked many of my followers they would probably tell you that they would sum up my Instagram feed look as bright and “rainbow everything”. There are many pages that also have classrooms that follow this same theme. While this trend is very impressive and has inspired me in many ways. I got to thinking about how to make my classroom more learner-friendly this past year. Recently, I have seen a lot of teacher grammers speak to scientific studies that showed many students struggled with a combination of stimulating colors and bright fluorescent lights. One study I read stated that said the combination of bright neon colors and many large fluorescent light fixtures could lead to difficulties focusing and migraines. It also stated that many educators may not notice the symptoms of light sensitivity, but to be wary if noticing students complaining of dizziness, fatigue, irritability, discomfort, and anxiety. Another small study I read reported similar results stating that fluorescent lighting increased the frequency of stereotypical repetitive behaviors in children with Autism. Having the special education cluster in my general education class I knew I had to start researching ways to offer a more calm learning environment for all my scholars. When reflecting on how to do so, I started to look into alternative ways to offer light in my classroom. Before reading the studies about light sensitivity, I proactively turned off my classroom’s ceiling fluorescent lights (all 12 of them) during the second half of the day. I was able to do so because my classroom has these beautiful big windows. After doing so, I noticed an almost drastic change in the energies of my students in my classroom. Many of my seven and eight-year-old students have experienced trauma and are sensitive to sensory, rather that be auditory or visually. While I found this proactive approach worked for many of them. I did find that I was straining my eyes trying to read from my desk area, which is furthest from the windows. Worrying about my students developing eyes, I began looking into other ways to provide light without overloading sensory. I got these tranquil blue light covers and put them up right away on Monday, even though it was the last week of school. I noticed an almost immediate improvement in my students’ ability to concentrate and found myself without a headache by the end of the day while keeping all 12 lights on. One of my students who is on the Autism Spectrum stated that “These blue covers have helped me stay in the green zone. They remind me of a playground tunnel. I can see the light through them, but it is muffled. I like it that way.” It was this comment that provided me confidence in my most recent attempt to build accommodations for light sensitivity. I’d love to explore other possibilities to accommodate my students’ light sensory needs. Please join the conversation by commenting below what you have tried in your classroom. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Zoey Bros is a second grade teacher from Minnesota.
