My Project
Our classroom Zen Den is one of the most vital parts our learning space. The Zen Den is a dedicated space in our classroom for students who need a quiet moment to refocus, reenergize, or take a break as needed. Over the years, my students have utilized the Zen Den for a variety of reasons and due to this, there has been some wear and tear on a few of our important items. The items included in this project are essential to the Zen Den and need to be replaced.
From saucer chairs to cleaning supplies to new fidgets tools, with these additional supplies our Zen Den will be fully restocked and ready to go!
Thankfully, our Zen Den continues to grow every year and is still accessible for many more students to come!
