My Project

Kindergarten is a busy place with lots of students and lots of emotions. I want to give my students a quiet place in our classroom. A place to calm down and reflect. With your help, I will make a cozy corner with calm-down essentials to meet my students needs. It will include cozy seating, sensory toys, books about feelings, and facial posters.

I want to create a safe and calm enviroment free form stress and anxiety.

This cozy corner in my classroom will benefit all of my students.

My kindergarten kids need calm place where they can learn to self-regulate and manage their emotions throughout the day. Please help provide my students with a cozy calm corner where they can breathe freely, relax, and take a quiet break. They will then be able to return back to learning and growing with their classmates.
