My Project

My students are amazing! They are hardworking, determined, and ready to learn each day. They are the dentists, pilots and senators of the future.

The materials in this project are meant to provide my students with tools to regulate their feelings and actions and build a stronger classroom community.

I want to ensure that we have tools available in our classroom for them to use when we are inside for indoor recess or need to take a break. The board games, fidgets, and play-doh are great tools for them to have available when they are needed. The headphones will be used during independent work time (like a listening station during language arts), so that students can fully focus on what they are doing.

My students are amazing and they need the right tools to do their work. These materials will help my students regulate when needed and help us all build a stronger and calmer classroom community.
