A Cozy Calm Corner to Support Emotional Wellness

Help me give my students a safe, soothing environment that helps them reset and stay engaged.

Mrs. Barrett Farmville Middle School
Farmville, NC Grades 6-8

My Project

My students are hardworking, creative, and full of potential. They thrive when they have a calm, supportive space where they can manage big feelings, refocus, and regain confidence. This project will help me create a cozy calming corner designed to support emotional wellness, self-regulation, and independence.

Sensory tools, fidgets, social-emotional materials, and soothing décor will give students practical strategies to regulate their emotions and return to learning ready to engage.

Each item will contribute to a peaceful, welcoming environment where every child feels safe, supported, and empowered to grow throughout the school day.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
