Calming Corner

Help me give my students the missing piece of their welcoming calming corner! They need a chair and posters.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Trujillo's classroom raised $524

This project is fully funded

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

The items in this project will help complete a calming corner in the classroom. Calming corners provide a space for students to self-regulate when experiencing stress, anxiety, and various other emotions.

The missing and central piece of our calming corner is missing: the accent chairs!

While my district approved many of the materials needed for my calming corner, they did not approve the chairs. This is where my students need your help. The missing accent chairs will bring the whole space together and make it the warm space they deserve!
