My Project
Having a safe space in my classroom will allow my students to feel loved and accepted by their teacher and classmates. Creating a comfortable corner with seating, sensory toys, and books for my ADD, OCD, autistic, and special needs students away from the active area of the classroom will allow them to de-stress.
My diverse classroom of 30 students needs a safe space where they can go by themselves, spend time alone, and return with an improved mood, ready to participate and learn.
Having inviting Cozy seating chairs will relax my students, and the fidgets & sensory toys will help them explore their senses and manage overstimulation. Reading books on mood and feeling will optimize learning and help them make connections with their emotions.
