My students will greatly benefit from tools/resources that will assist with managing behaviors associated with their social/emotional trauma. This assistance will help promote a calming influence at school as well as at home. Particularly, bean bag chairs, multi-color light projectors with music capabilities, fidget toys, lava lamps and diffusers are items that may help students enter a calm or serene scene when experiencing emotional difficulties at school. Audiobooks and associated virtual resources on subject matters (science, agricultural, social studies) can offer redirection and help with emotional load management at home. When students practice managing emotions, it opens the door for focusing on and choosing a specific interest. This will occupy the time normally used on emotional struggles that would have resulted in negative actions.
