The resources I chose for my project will help my students when their anxiety becomes too much for them to handle. The sensory sand will give them a calming feeling, and they can begin to relax as they rake the sand. The blankets and the bean bag chairs will make the space seem cozy, and they will take away from any negative stigma about using the calming corner. The koosh balls can be tossed up and down in a calming manner. The calming bottles will provide a visual for them to look at while in the space. My students will be able to spend more time learning because these resources will help reduce their anxiety. The choices in the calming center will promote self-calming instead of fleeing the classroom to escape an over stimulating situation.
