Creating a calming corner will help students practice identifying their feelings and emotions to better manage stress, self regulate, and control their impulses. It provides a safe place for students to use and improve their self regulation skills on a daily basis. We want students to not only thrive academically but, also meet their social and emotional needs. We teach the "whole child". Making our students feel safe and important is our number one priority. This will allow students to develop skills that they can use for a lifetime. Focusing on social and emotional learning can not only improve behavior, anxiety, and stress but, it can very well improve academics.
