Classroom Calm Down Corner

Help me give my students a nice calm down corner with breathing boards, fidget tubes, a comfortable carpet and more.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Foli's classroom raised $604

This project is fully funded

My Project

This calm down corner will help my students learn to recognize their emotions and provide them with the tools to de-escalate as needed. There will be tools such as breathing boards for calming breathing techniques, fidget tubes, squeeze balls and more to help the students with their strong emotions.

This will help all students in my class be able to focus on their learning.

The calm down corner will allow students a spot in the classroom to go when they feel their bodies need a break. We can have a safe classroom for all students to feel and deal with their emotions.
