This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
This project is to expand on the already successful Calm Corner implemented at our school. What started as a corner of a hut dedicated to students that were experiencing high levels of anxiety, depression, or anger has turned into a safe place for students to talk about problems at home, with teachers, other students, or issues in general. The Calm corner has become an area that has helped students learn to cope, express themselves positively, and avoid problems within the building. We now have turned one calm corner into three and we are offering more coping methods in a safe space. I am looking to expand on the materials we already have and replace materials that have been damaged. I feel that massage guns will help students relax, considering we already encourage yoga in the calm corner. The workbooks listed will give students resources that they can do on their own while in the calm corner or not. The workbooks also ensure that all teachers can have an outline of activities to help the students. The fidgets will be used to replenish the supply of coping gadgets that have been great with our students. All other gadgets will be used to increase the sense of calmness in a therapeutic environment.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
