Calming Area

Help me give my students a calming, sensory friendly space that reflects them with a photo printer that will allow us to take photos of the kids displaying different emotions and display around the calming corner.

My Project

Research has shown that students with access to calming corners greatly improves not just academic outcomes, but social-emotional development as well. These items will help our students with disabilities as well as our students in the general education department.

All students deserve a space in their classroom that is a sensory-safe place for them to regulate their emotions and relax.

These items will help us provide that for them! The photo printer specifically will be used to print pictures of our students displaying different emotions so they can see themselves reflected in the area. The jumbo timer, body socks, fluffy rug and other sensory items will provide a calm-down corner that allows them to rest and reset.
