Calming Area

Funded Jan 11, 2023

Thank you so much for your generosity. My students are using the calming corner daily to relax or to take a five minute break. They are using the Legos to show how they feel. They are using sensory toys to calm them down. They are using padded seats to sit down on the floor. They are using the mindfulness posters to self regulate their emotions.

My students were excited when I told them about receiving monies to buy materials for the quiet corner. I told them it would take days to set it up. They would ask me every day if the quiet corner is ready.

My next step is to continue to build my quiet corner with other materials such as crayons and markers and paper. I want the students to take ownership of the quiet corner, and they are beginning to do so.”

With gratitude,

Mr. Carrillo
