My Project

My students are the best students. However, sometimes they struggle with being able to control their emotions. They also struggle with being able to maintain focus and calming down so that they can make good behavior choices. Your donation of these products will allow my students to use the materials to create healthy alternative measures that will assist them in creating a zen space for their learning. It will also allow them to find what works for them and then create a bracelet to take with them to their other classrooms. It is our hope that this will allow the students the ability to maintain their emotions, anxiety, anger, or focus so that their education is not interrupted by taking breaks outside the classroom.
