My Project
Please help me add a calming corner to our classroom to help students recognize emotions, feelings and begin to self regulate within the classroom. We have been learning all about feelings & emotions and how to handle both in a number of situations.
By providing a calm, quiet space for students, with stuffed animals and floor seats, we can help them learn to calm down, take a deep breath and use a number of different tools for self regulation.
Our goal is to help students learn how to reflect on their feelings and emotions and then return to the classroom activities with a calm body ready to learn. These skills will help students in a number of situations throughout their school years and beyond.
More than half of 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
