A Cozy Calming Cube to Wipe Away the Blues

Help me give my students a calming center. Often students arrive to school emotionally dysregulated and have difficulties separating with parents. The Quiet time privacy cube would create an inviting and calming space.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hurdle's classroom raised $911

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

We have the pleasure of teaching the youngest learners. Students are ages 2-4 and require much support in social emotional learning as they prepare for kindergarten. Morning separations can be a challenge and a calming area can support building resilience and emotional regulation so that they are both emotionally and cognitively prepared to learn.

When children are upset the calming cube will be a safe comfortable space for students to go with sensory soothing materials such as books, soft plushy items, privacy cubes, pillows, music etc.

. Our students appreciate the opportunity to apply.
