Help me give my students sensory tools like a fake aquarium and a jellyfish lamp to calm them when they are feeling overwhelmed.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Amy's classroom raised $378

Celebrating 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
Many students come into my classroom to take space or regroup. They just need a quiet corner. The tools will be used in the quiet corner of our classroom. The Zen garden will give students something to calm their nerves. The fidgits will give them something to do with their hands. The posters are great to remind students of the different options available to them when feeling overwhelmed.
Creating a calm corner in our classroom will give my students a safe place to refocus and possibly learn healthy or new ways to deal with their day-to-day lives.
The headphone hooks, slips, and calculator slip help organize our classroom in a neat way. Lastly, the cell phone case gives the students a safe, distraction-free place to hold their phones.
More than three‑quarters 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
