The use of the Big Joe Plush chairs will provide my students with soft place to sit and deescalate when they need a moment to calm down and regroup. Returning back to school during the ongoing battle with COVID 19 has been a rough transition for many students. I would like to make sure that I can create a warm, inviting, and serene space that promotes self regulation and a positive mindset. Students who are in crisis also benefit from using Lego blocks as well other hands on materials to help them deescalate.
