My Project
Many students have anxiety, so I want to create a "Social emotional learning center" where students can be more comfortable while working and mastering math skills in my classroom. This area will provide students a means to break off from the rest of the class due to having Comfy Floor Seats and Floor desks in a designated spot. Some students need an area to escape to so that they are less distracted by the whole class. The headphone organizer and charger holder will help keep the area organized.
I would also love to add Fidget Toys that don't make noise and a couple Weighted Animals to my classroom.
These items allow students who struggle with sitting still in a classroom to pay more attention. It will give them a way to fidget while they listen. Students often need something to keep their hands busy; otherwise, they may distract the entire class. The Weighted Animals will bring comfort to students who struggle with anxiety.
The "Social Emotional Learning Center" will be a great addition to my classroom so that my students will have less anxiety and feel more comfortable in the classroom. These days Options within the Classroom are so important!
