My Project

I currently teach in a self-contained bridge classroom. In our class, we have students in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade. Each of the students in this class is unique and diverse. We need help to create a calming corner that supports their needs.

The items that we are hoping to be donated are for our calming corner.

We are working on regulating our emotions and these soft seats and floor seats can help students in my class to learn to self-regulate as they sit in our calming corner. Please help us reach our goal of learning about ourselves and our emotions!
