Each month we have mandatory "Code Red" drills which require the children to quickly move to the designated "Hard Corner" area in the classroom. Whenever a "Code Red" is announced, whether a drill or active, the students must leave their educational learning and reach the "Hard Corner" area. The children respond to Code Reds with fear and emotional outbursts. Students must remain quiet during this time, which is very difficult when they are crying. Providing a comforting and peaceful "Hard Corner" area, with a beautiful rug and books, will help calm students down and bring peace. With your help, I want to create a peaceful "Hard Corner" area that will also become our "Happy Place" where stars continue to shine!
