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
I would like to create a calming corner in my classroom to provide students with an opportunity to self regulate and deal with their big feelings. This calming corner will serve as a safe place for students to learn how to express their emotions.
A calming corner is an opportunity to promote self-awareness, emotional well-being, and independence in students.
This allows them to deal with challenges they may face in the classroom environment.
The calming corner will help students learn how to breathe, relax and refocus. It is a chance for students to express themselves. Sensory items will help students to calm down and refocus. Breathing techniques and books dealing with emotions will help them during difficult moments, at the same time allowing them to remain in the class and know that they are part of the classroom community.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
