What about lighting? How does it relate to you in English? Does it at all?

  1. The lighting in this classroom is great, i love it i like it when the lights are down low, one of the reason is the at it helps me think better when i am writing and also because it keeps the classroom peaceful and it saves energy, specially when is a foggy, rainy day and the curtain blinds are pulled up and see the rain dropping and it makes it so much better to write.

    “Breathing Technique”
    I think the breathing technique helps me because it helps me think and it helps
    Me relax and the first day of school when we first did the breathing technique
    I thought it was interesting because last year it was really quiet and boring. Yet
    even though i could think really good everybody started talking and it was really
    hard to think and write. But this year i can think very well with the breathing
    technique, it improves my writing and i'm getting better grades.

  5. The lighting in miss. Naugher's classroom makes me sleepy. It's not bad it just makes me real tired, I start reading & i doze off. But on the other hand i would like to keep the lighting like this, it's still peaceful.

    The dimmed lighting is very different from my other classes. I like the dimmed lighting its relaxing and helps you settle down from your other classes. The lighting is very peaceful and is very cool.

  10. The lights are okay with me. If you turn on
    the overhead lights that would make me
    sleepy and makes me not want to do my work.
    The lamps are very different I like them. They
    calm me down, and they are cool.

  11. The environment in miss. Naugher's classroom is great. The way the colors are is pretty, and also the quotes are good to read. I feel more comfortable writing in here than any other classroom. The reason for that is because I feel so relaxed ! I love her environment.

  12. When the lights are off i have trouble seeing. I can't concentrate because i start to fall asleep. The lights really effect me especially when I leave because my eyes adjust to the dimness and start to hurt after. Lamps and windows aren't helping. With the overhead lights I can concentrate my eyes are better not blurring and keeping center focus. The lamps aren't bright enough to actually do work in ad the lack of light can mess up other peoples work because their eyes are straining to see better. Its no more easy to see in this room than outside in almost total darkness. My eyes strain,I am anemic and my eyes blur and the lighting just makes i it harder to see. It also makes me sleepy.

  13. The lighting in this room actually is very different from all the other class rooms. I like that we do not use the over head lights, they give me a headache. I feel like the dimmer lights that Mrs. Naugher uses helps me to be in calmer more peaceful mood. The lighting makes it easier for me to concentrate and do my work. I think we should keep the lights this way.

  14. The lighting in this class room is very energizing i concentrate better than any class i feel better i can see better the lights above are the worst thing in the world they make you sleepy and drowse i wish every class room was like this one.

  15. The lighting in Ms. Naugher's class is awesome! I love how its not as bright as the other classes. It's not to bright and not to dark. It actually helps me concentrate better when there's not a lot of light shining in my face.

  16. I like the lighting in here. It makes me comfortable. When i get done with my work I can read and be comfortable instead of having to shield my eyes. I think the lighting should stay the way it is.

  17. Breathing Technique

    I think tat this technique isn't useful because I don't feel anything different afterwards. It seems like nonsense to me because it just takes up valuable time. It isn't needed at all because it does nothing. I just don't see the point. I only used it twice and nothing changes for me.

  18. i like the lighting in this class pretty good. I think that it makes me think more. But sometimes the dim lights make me sleepy. But i like the lights at my house to be dim though, because it is relaxing but i think it just depends on what kind of mood i am in.

  19. I like the lighting in this room. It looks cool. I hate the bright lights they are weird. The lights in here don't shine off the desk and into my eyes. I have never liked the bright lights in classrooms they are ugly.

  20. Since the beginning of the school year I liked the lighting in this class. I prefer it being cool and more darkness because it makes me feel more comfortable. Also it just feels better and its different because in every other class its always full of light. It helps me concentrate because the sun isn't shining in the room and i don't get distracted. Also it looks better with everything thats in this classroom.

  21. There are a lot of classrooms in this school and by far I think this is the best one because in most classrooms the lights are on and in this classroom the lights are off. I like the lights being off it helps me relax and it helps me focus when we write, plus the breathing technique. I look forward to this class every day. I think she should keep the lights off.

  22. I actually like the way the lights are in this classroom. It makes me feel more relaxed. I don't like a lot of bright lights when I'm doing work because it makes me feel like I'm being watched and it also make it harder to concentrate. I think we should keep the lighting the way it is. !! ;D

  23. the lighting in this class room is great making this room feel like my room but like my room completely dark for some reason and it makes me relax better than the other classes it just so quiet and it makes me learn more.

    I love the lighting in this room. i don't like the over head lights. I like the blinds up so light can come in. Its not to dark in here it's just perfect. The lamps don't really help but they make it kinda more comfortable in here cause it feels like your at home. I don't like bright lights on. Its hard for me to think when there's a lot of bright lights.

  26. I really like how the over head lights are always off. it makes it more calm and peaceful in the room. The bright fluorescent lights give me a headache. with the lamps in the corner and the windows alway open, there is just enough light to see everything and it not be to bright.

  27. I personally like the lights dimmed on pretty, bright sunny days, but where there's likes there's always dislikes. I don't like the lights off when it's a rainy, dark, and gloomy day. When I come in here on rainy days, it seems like my energy level just drops compared to other rooms. I would like to have the lights on when it's dark and rainy outside, to bring up the energy in the room! When it's pretty, sunny, and happy outside, I like the lights to be off inside. The florescent bulbs give me a headache. This is my opinion about lighting

  28. I love the lighting in the room!! It's like all the light is natural! Al the lights are from where she opened the windows, and a few lamps here and there. No fluorescent lights!!! And i just feel really at ease when the lights are dimmed, and it helps me focus and concentrate more.

  29. I really like the way it is always dark in this class room. It makes you more relaxed while you are in here. I really like it because it doesn't feel like a classroom when the lights are turned down low. All of my other classes are really bright and now that I have been in here I think that it is annoying when the lights are really bright. It is a lot easier to write and to concentrate when the lights are turned down low.

  30. The lighting in the room makes it hard to see. I think we need more lights on. It would be nice to have colored lights so it won't be as bright. It would make it calm in here. But you need it to brighter in here.

  31. i like the lighting in here. it makes darker woth m¥ glasses. i can read better in this lighting too. and it gives me a break from all the fluresents in the school. it's relaxing for me. if i could change one thing it would be to shut the two windows right behind your desk. it would help me a lot because i see better in the dark than in the bright light.

  32. I love the dark, it makes me feel more at home since I always have the lights off. I can see perfectly fine in the dark. My eyes never have problems changing from light to dark or the other way around. I think the lighting helps me do better since I like it.

  33. I really like the lights dimmed in class. It is very calming and I am the type of person who likes storms and dim lighting with lamps turned on.I feel like I can be more focused and laid back. I don't feel like I'm having to do much classwork as much as the other classes. The only time we have had the lights turned on during class was when we played trashsketball, and I liked it then. The bright lights and white walls in all the other classes seem very dull and boring. The dim lighting also makes the room seem quieter.

  34. I love coming into english and not having to stare up at the bright lights! I love the way the soft lights intensify the bright colors in the room. They make me feel less mentally drained and more relaxed. The lights help me feel less stressed and ready to work! They make the room feel like less of a classroom and more of a learning room.

  35. The lighting is great! It is so peaceful. In other classes the fluorescent lights just drain my energy and makes me feel like I have a lot of things to do. I can see perfectly with the lights like they are. I don't think you should change the lights at all.

  36. I like the writing in Ms. Naugher's room. It is not blinding like the other classes, yet it has enough light to carry out class objectives, and gives a soft feeling to the room. I like it,

  37. I think its kinda bothersome because you can't see in some parts of the classroom. I think it still fills like school it doesn't help me concentrate more. In fact it kinda gives me a headache going from a bright classroom to a dark one to a bright one again. It also puts me down because of how dark it is and when I think of happy I think of this bright sunny place not a dimly lit room

    ReplyDelete
  38. The lighting in this class makes me relaxed. I like how we have the windows open and use natural light rather than just using the over head lights. I like how there are lights on a tree in the room. And the lamps all over the room. This class has a warmer feeling to it than the other rooms. I hate the lights in other class rooms. It keeps me more focused than when I'm in other classes. In most classes the blinds are shut and there isn't any lights coming in through the windows. I like how we always have them open. The lights are relaxing and help me do my work better than what I usually do.

  39. The lighting in the room has a very peaceful effect on me. In my other classrooms, the harsh light sometimes gives me a headache. Also, since the lights are low, it makes me feel like I'm at home. Although some days, the dim lighting makes me so comfortable, I start to get sleepy. Overall, I like the lighting and the feel that comes with it.

  40. I enjoy the lighting in English class. It's not too bright, but not too dark, either. My other classes make me feel bored or tired, but here, I seem to get my energy back. I think that all the classrooms should have their lighting like Ms. Naugher's class.

  41. I like having the lights off in the classroom. Its different than other classroom and it relaxes me. The lighting from outside makes the room feel less like a classroom and more like a place to relax. I especially like it on rainy and gloomy days. It has a quieter feel to the room.

  42. the lighting to me is just fine. it really doesnt even matter to me but i like the lights better this way than in the other classrooms. to me you should have a little more lighting because i get tired sometimes. the lights make me feel comfortable and you dont have a bright light shining down on you all the time like in other classes.

  43. I love the lighting.It doesn't hurt my eyes ir give me headaches.It makes me think better and see things easyer.I wish every classroom was like yours.It makes me feel like im at home and not at school.You need to keep your lighting just the way it is.

  44. the lighting in Mrs. Naugher's class helps. I like the lights being off because, i like the dark. Plus with the lights off it helps me concentrate. It helps me think a lot more. It doesn't make me sleepy or anything it makes me comfortable. I hate to much lighting but this is just enough!

    i love the way the room is lit... it's smoothing and its not to bright not to dark its just perfect and i really like the natural lighting....... i think thats all we need is the light from outside.. no lamps just light from outside

    ReplyDelete
  47. I like the way you have the lights in here. I have a lamp that sits in my room that sprouts out into other lights. Before I ever walked into this room, at home, I would always have my over-head light on. But now...I keep that lamp on almost 24-7. It keeps me relaxed and calm. Your room has inspired me.

  48. i like the room better with the lights off. it makes me feel relaxed. I can work a lot better when I feel like that. it also makes me feel like I at home instead of at school. I also like that you can see what is going on outside. Overall I like the room better with the lights off.

    I think the lighting is perfect. Because its not so bright, and it helps me concentrate more on my work. I'm more relaxed to. I think you should keep it like this. And it dosen't put pressure on me.

  50. The lighting in Ms. Naughers class is GREAT! It's not so bright and it helps to settle me down and relax. I work better with the overhead lights off anywaysss. I think Ms. Naughers class is the best to get on track and think a little harder than any class I have. It goes very well with the surroundings(:

  52. I like the lighting in this classroom. The lighting in other classrooms stresses me out. When I walk into this classroom I forget about all of my problems and become relaxed. The lights turned off with lamps on helps clear my head so I can focus on what Im about to write about. I think the lighting helps me a lot.

  53. I like the lights in here. I hate the florescent lights because they give me a headache and it makes me feel sleepy. Also it makes me feel like i am stressed out also.IT is the perfect amount of light in here. And I also like the widows being open all the time.

    "Lighting"
    I personally LOVE the lighting in Miss. Naugher`s class room. i love not having the overhead lights on. i do not like the at all, they make me want to go sleep and i feel colder with them on. I know that sounds kind of weird but, i really do. I feel very comfortable and relaxed with the outside light coming in through the open windows, and all of the lamps on with a wonderful smell coming from the candles that are lit. the best thing about not have the overhead lights on is that it is not as bright in the other classes. Also they are not gleaming down right on top of you. I feel a lot more open,spaced out,and relaxed with the lighting in this room!

    The lighting is great.I like the lighting in your room, sometimes I wish all the teachers had this kind of lighting.I think the lighting in here is peaceful, it also doesn't make you as tired, in my opinion.I would rather use lamps rather than overhead lights, even in my own bedroom at home.To me I feel like all the over head lights are to much lighting, it gives me a headache.I think you should keep the lighting like it is(:!

    I absolutely love the lighting in here! I had never realized in until now, but I do feel exhausted in my second period class. Coach Orr's lights are bright! I love it in here when the curtains are covering the windows. I don't know why, but I feel less stressed when it is dark. I think that the lamps are a cute and creative side of the room. :)

  57. I like the lighting. In every other class its really bright because of the over-head lights, and it hurts my eyes after a while. In your classroom though, with the lights off, the blinds open, and all the lamps, it's bright enough to see but not to bright to hurt my eyes. Also, with the blinds up, it feels more like I'm outside. When I'm outside I work better. At my house, I usually do my homework outside unless, the weather's acting up or it's real cold but, other than that, I'm always outside. I once fell asleep outside with Ladie, my Siberian Husky, in her dog house. Plus, the lighting in your room is peaceful because it feel like I'm not at school! I love the lighting in your room!!

  58. The lighting in miss naughers room is not to derk and not to bright.it is peaceful calming to the eyes. its good to know that one teacher cares about the best way kids kearn and support each other. sometimes the light can bother eyes because icant read really small writing such as a dictionary. i dont let it get to me because i try hard to read it anyways.though it is hard to read small things in here this is still my favorite class;)!

  59. In here lighting makes me feel weird. It is just a tad bit to dark for me to e in a classroom. When we do our work it is hard to concentrate. I also think that when wee write it should be a little light to see what we are writing. So that is what I have to say.

  60. I hate it at my house when the lights are off , but i love the lights off in here, this classroom is very warm and welcoming . I don't like walking into a classroom and BAM!! the lights are in your face and they hurt your eyes and you have to squint just to see something. I would love for the room to stay just like this cause it is very cool and different and because i feel comfortable in here. YES I LOVE IT!!!

  61. I don't like the lighting in here. It gives me a headache and makes me want to sleep. The lights coming in through the windows I like. But the dimmed lights are annoying. And with the dimmed lights i cant see the board that well. I prefer florescent lights because they keep me awake and help me see.

  62. On days when it's cloudy outside and the room is dark the lighting makes me sleepy. But, having all natural lighting makes me more relaxed. It also helps me concentrate on my work. Plus, it is just a change from every other class. So, I like having all natural lighting.

  63. The lighting in the room is great.It really helps me focus and concentrate. All of the natural light and lamps keep the room dim and not to bright. When the lights are really bright I get very bored. But when they aren't too bright it keeps me focused on my work.

    What do I think about the lighting? The lights in here are different from all the other classes. I think the dimmed lights are better to concentrate. Most teachers think dimming the lights will make students fall asleep but i actually think the lights on make me more tired. I think the lights should stay dim.

  65. I really like the lighting in the room. It makes me feel better. I'm always tired in other classes. It makes me work better I think. Last ear I hated english. This year it's fun. I think lighting plays a roe n that. It also I think helps me write and think of what I'm going to right about.

  68. the lighting in this class is just right. it's not to dim and not to bright its the best out of all my classes. If the lights are to bright it makes me want to go to sleep. But if the lights are to dim it hurts my head. And with this light I get sleepy but not enough to go to sleep. So I guess you could say I like it.

  69. The lighting in the class room is cool. It does not make me as sleepy in this class as any of the other classes. I dont really know why. The lights are cool cause it is only lamps and sun. I think that is cool and old fashion. These light are helpful I can some what see better a little.

    I love that we don't use the annoying floursent light bulbs in this classroom. I like having it dim ,but bright enough to see, because it makes me feel more relaxed, but a little tired. But I think that's just because it's seventh period. It's really comforting. But I'm glad we don't have the floursent light bulbs.

  75. I love the lighting in the room i also like how you missnaugher use natural sunlight it dosent make me tired and sleepy like the flouresent lights in all of my other classes do like choir,band,math,pe,science&socialstudies it makes me tired of doing work i always want to go to sleep.
