My Project

I'm requesting supplies to help make a calm classroom and support students mental health and mindset! I would like some additional tools to help kids practice breathing exercises, get their wiggles out, calm their anxiety, and have a more positive mindset!

The chairs will help students wiggle and relax in class so they can focus on their learning.

The cards will be used for the whole class to get in a more focused mindset for learning! The wiggle bands for the chairs will help students who need that movement. The breathing owl and dog will help students who need that alone time to calm down and focus on their mental heath and calm bodies. The positive mindset chips will help my students keep a more positive mindset.

Help make my classroom calmer, positive, and a be ready for better learning within the classroom! My students are amazing but they also need that extra support to keep them focused in the classroom!
