Help me give my students a wooden privacy cube as a safe place where they can regulate their emotions, and listen to their bodies if they need to be by themselves for a moment.

My Project
Many of my students need adult support to help regulate their emotions, especially three and four year olds with special needs. Hands-on materials are great for learning, even with social-emotional skills! In preschool, we work hard on recognizing and expressing our feelings throughout the day.
The materials I am requesting will help my students practice their play skills.
The quiet time privacy cube and mat will give my preschoolers a safe space to relieve stress, calm down, and reset their bodies before returning to learning.
Other materials like the easy view aquarium, forest, farm and farm barn, and accompanying animals will allow my students to work together for a dramatic play activity and to act out things they've learned about animals and their habitats by exploring farms animals, forest animals and ocean animals, and dinosaurs. I want to give my students a fish tank so I can enhance our science instruction with living creatures they can observe daily.
My students will learn the differences between living and non-living things as we compare fish and other living and nonliving things throughout our Creative Curriculum studies.
