My Project

It's nearing the end of the school year, and our supplies are running low in our new therapeutic space called the Tiger Zen Den. Please help me replenish and renew the soothing atmosphere and supplies in the Zen Den to help my students relax when stressed or feel safe when dealing with a mental health crisis. Students enjoy fidgets, coloring books, drawing, and calming decor when they are experiencing difficult emotions during their school day. Please help me make this space special for them when visiting the Tiger Zen Den.

Mrs. Burke
Grades 9-12
