My Project

I moved to a new classroom with hardwood floors and it needs a rug for the calming corner. Help my Visually Impaired Mod./Severe address the anxiety and challenges in a safe space. This dedicated area, will be decorated with a dark blue cozy rug, sensory toys, two bean bag chairs, 2 pillows, and a glowing moon lamp. Having a calm place allows my students to work on their emotions and get ready to learn. I have specifically chosen a neutral colored rug to support my students in their learning as studies show that neutral and calming tones benefit student will Visual Impairment focus and overall sense of comfort. Thank you, in advance for your help with making our school year a successful and joyful one!

The calming corner will support my Blind students Social Emotional Learning and give them a space when they need a moment of quiet.

This project would be a great support students needs that are diverse and unique. I would love to provide a place for these children that they deserve. Thank you for taking the time to consider my classroom. I appreciate your time. Thank you.
