Calming Corner Project

Help me give my students a calming corner. This is a place where they can calm down and work independently. I teach teens and they really need this space. Thank you!

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

I need comfortable seating, a laptop holder, and a positive poster set to help my students have a calming space. I teach teens (some with special needs) and this calming corner would be of great benefit to them. Moreover, my students are the future and I always try my best to help them achieve their goals. I teach science to approximately 115 students. My students need a small break to themselves sometimes and I truly believe that a calming corner would be a great benefit to have in my classroom. Thank you, in advance!

Mrs. Reynoso PS 083 Donald Hertz Annex Grades 6-8
