Wellness in the Lab: Helping Students Stay Calm and Engaged

Help me give my students a science classroom that holds a variety of fidget, sensory, and stress relief tools to help them stay calm, focused, and engaged in learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Lamps's classroom raised $166

My Project

In my high school science classroom, students are expected to think critically, collaborate, and engage in hands-on investigations—but for many, managing stress, anxiety, or attention challenges can make learning difficult. That’s why I’m asking for support to bring a variety of fidget, sensory, and stress relief tools into our learning space.

When students feel calm and regulated, they can truly focus and thrive.

These tools—ranging from quiet fidgets and sensory strips to stress balls and calming visuals—will provide students with healthy ways to manage their energy and emotions during class. They’ll help students reset, refocus, and stay engaged in challenging science content without disrupting the learning environment.

This project supports not just academic success, but student wellness and inclusion. By creating a classroom that recognizes and responds to diverse needs, we’re empowering every learner to succeed in science—and beyond. Your support will help us build a more mindful and supportive space, one student at a time.
