Many students returned to in person school, dealing with a lot of social and academic anxiety. Many of the items ordered is to help them work through their anxiety and be successful in their school setting; but also, to help them learn skills that will help them develop personally and emotionally. The items ordered will help them work through their issues in the calming room I want to put into place for them and also to use in my office when counseling. I find that my curriculum program, lacks materials for student groups that will be identified (anxiety, grief, anger management needs), such as binders, activities ordered. Meeting ice breakers will help their social anxiety with others in the group. The anxiety fidgets will help sooth immediate students in need, while using the calming room or use in my office.
