Hi laura1a2jimenez,

It sounds like your project has at least two aspects: measuring luminescence and glow-in-the-dark objects. Perhaps you could think about how glow-in-the-dark objects help us. What types of uses have you seen for glow-in-the-dark things? Many children's toys are glow-in-the-dark. But, glow-in-the-dark lights ("glow sticks") can also provide light in emergency situations, such as power outages. That is one example. Where else have you found glow-in-the-dark things helpful?
All the best,
Terik
