Help me give my students a calm corner that is easy to clean, but, still comfy enough to provide our students with a place to go when they just need a little break. This includes a floor mat, bookcase, and more.
By donating towards a calm-down corner, you can help support the mental health and well-being of the most amazing students here at GES.
Did you know that calm corners can:
Teach Self-Regulation: A calm-down corner can help students develop self-regulation skills by teaching them how to identify and manage their emotions in a healthy way. By donating towards a calm-down corner, you can help support the social-emotional development of students.
Support Inclusion: A calm-down corner can be especially beneficial for students with special needs, such as those with ADHD or sensory processing disorder. By donating towards a calm-down corner, you can help support the inclusion of all students in the classroom.
Encourage Positive Behavior: By providing students with a designated space to manage their emotions, a calm-down corner can help encourage positive behavior and reduce negative behavior such as outbursts or disruptions in the classroom. By donating towards a calm-down corner, you can help promote a more positive and productive learning environment.
The items in my project will be used to create a calming place for students. The playmat and bean bag will serve as a comfy place for kids to sit on while being able to clean easily. The bookcase will hold all of the sensory items and calming books that kids can use when in the calm corner.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
