My Project

Providing an activity table will help the elementary students in our school have access to a corner in which they can play with kinetic sand, magnetic blocks and other materials. At times, our students need a quiet and peaceful place to channel their energy. Playing with and using their hands, while interacting with their peers, is also a creative way for them to practice the skill of slowing down and regulating their emotions. Practicing these skills will help them to improve their self awareness and self management SEL competencies.
