These items really helped make the space come together.\r\n\r\nIn Head Start, we focus on using Conscious Discipline with our students. This is an adult approach first, which focuses on breathing and talking about emotions rather than time out or negative discipline. The safe space in the classroom gives the children a quiet place to go to calm down, look at family pictures, read social/ emotional stories, use fidgets and much more.\r\n\r\nIt's donors like you who help make classrooms a more loving environment.
