Calming/Sensory Corner

Help me give my students a calming corner complete with sensory tools to assist in fostering self-regulation techniques and creating a productive learning environment!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Jordyn's classroom raised $325

This project is fully funded

My Students

I teach Kindergarten for students with high-functioning autism and others who would benefit from a unique learning environment. For many of my students Kinder is their first time in a structured classroom and they are so excited to learn and make friends!

My Project

Sensory areas allow kids to recollect themselves, process their sensory input needs, and take a much-needed break. At a school serving students with high functioning autism, this calming/sensory corner will help my Kinder students by providing them with a spot to work on their self-regulation skills, and get in the right mindset for productive learning.

This calming/sensory area will be a safe place where students feel comfortable and can always go whenever they need a break.

I know my students will really benefit from integrating a softer, calmer, and less rigid area in the classroom. This addition will have them looking forward to coming to school each day!
