Help me give my students some materials they can use to "cool down".
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ross's classroom raised $228
This project is fully funded
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
Students are always needing new ways to help them regulate their bodies and manage big emotions. When a child is escalated, resetting their nervous system or the vagus nerve, can have very calming effects. You can do this by giving them something minty or very cold along with chewing.
Ice meets two criteria for resetting a student's nervous system and is an easy classroom resource.
This project contains an ice machine that produces small, soft ice that is perfect for chewing. The pieces are small enough that the choking hazard is reduced and soft enough that teeth will not be damaged. There are also cold packs in the project in case a student would rather just hold something cold instead of eat it.
More than half 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
