Mrs. Clever's Calming Corner
Funded Sep 25, 2024My students are thrilled with the new calming corner resources in our classroom. Each day, as the deliveries arrived, they were asking questions and intrigued with the new items.
We are currently utilizing these products as a center in our discovery rotations to ensure proper learning of how to correctly use the new resources. It is a wonderful sight to see that kids are gravitating towards certain materials to provide comfort. The weighted animal buddies are a crowd favorite and often the students will read to or color with the animal buddies. The breathing pal is often chosen to regulate calming breaths and relaxation.
As the year progresses, the calming corner will be accessible to the students throughout each school day for a "reset" if emotions are running high and need to be calmed.”

Help Us "Discover" BIG Things with Our Little Hands!
Funded Sep 7, 2022It was PURE exhilaration when the materials were dropped off in my classroom! My students were cheering and jumping up and down with excitement! Their faces were priceless knowing that they would be able to participate in using these wonderful additions each day in our classroom.
My class is able to utilize the discovery materials each day for approximately 25 minutes in the afternoon. We have a five day rotation, so each child rotates through each of the centers, one center a day. My groups are flexible, so I can have different children interacting with one another all the time.
We will continue using our purchases for the remainder of the school year. I am looking forward to watching my students discover "BIG" things with their little hands!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Clever
