My Project

Many of my students are stressed and experience anxiety especially during this time of the year. They will be taking the state test soon and have been preparing for it. Students struggle with test anxiety and it has been a challenge for many of them to overcome it.

We have a calming corner for students to go when they need a break.

I hope to provide them with fidget toys like stress balls to help manage their anxiety and stay focused. Additionally, the tablet holders can be a valuable tool in a calming corner by providing students with access to relaxation apps. This will allow students to relax without holding the iPad. The computer case will protect the computer when students are using it in the calming corner.
