Help me give my students a "Calming Corner" in our classroom with a dedicated space where students can find peace, manage their emotions, and refocus their energy through sensory pillows and a sitting area away from their desks.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kelty's classroom raised $818
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
Research shows that providing a calming space can significantly enhance emotional regulation and reduce disruptive behaviors. In fact, studies indicate that students with access to calming corners can experience a 20-30% reduction in behavioral incidents. This not only fosters a more harmonious classroom but also supports academic success and social-emotional growth.
Your generous donations will help me create a nurturing environment equipped with comfortable seating, sensory tools, and calming activities.
Together, we can provide our students with the support they need to manage stress and anxiety, ultimately fostering a more productive and positive classroom atmosphere.
More than three‑quarters 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
