This peaceful area in our classroom will allow students to relax, calm their bodies and engage in quiet activities.
When students have a safe place to reflect and learn, they are better able to work together and participate in larger group activities.
Everyone needs a safe environment to recharge when overstimulated by the daily sounds, events and potential challenges embedded in a typical school day. Younger students need help regulating their emotions.
Having a designated reading and calm area within the classroom with pillows, plush animals and a rug, will help formalize the normalcy of our special calm corner.
