Help me give my students a comfortable and calming learning environment in our classroom!

My Project

I am trying to create a positive and calming learning environment in my room. These items will all help with that. The fountain will provide some calming background noise, the vacuum will clean up small messes, and the whiteboards can be used to get each student involved in learning. The mindfulness cards will help students calm down when feeling stressed and the ant farm will add an interesting piece to our classroom to get students more engaged in science. It is my first year at this school and my classroom could use a little TLC!
