My Project
The end of the school year is fast approaching. Students are still learning but need moments of calming activities to regroup and take a brain break moment.
Wiki sticks, bubbles in different forms, and coloring will allow the brain to relax and calm the mind and spirit before facing a new and exciting challenge each day.
Having the supplies and permanent station location for my young learners to visit when the class activities become a frustration, will allow my students to learn how to redirect stress even at their young age.
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
