We all have times when we feel upset, anxious, frustrated, or dysregulated. It's part of life. When these strong emotions occur at school, student learning is often disrupted both for the student feeling them and the students around them. At our Elementary school, we want to provide a Wellness Room where students feeling strong emotions can go to choose activities that help them regulate their emotions.
The items listed in this project are activities that students can choose to help them regulate their emotions while in the Wellness Room.
For example, a student may choose to create an origami swan in a teepee tent. Or, they may choose to bounce on an exercise ball while squeezing silly putty. Another student may opt to play with blocks or relax on a furry rug with noise-canceling headphones. After 10 to 15 minutes in a calming activity, students can return to their classroom calm, and ready to learn.
The following will provide students with a calming place in the Wellness Room to help them regulate their emotions:
Yoga Ball
Teepee Tent
Floor Playmat
Hammock Swing Chair
Furry Carpets
Swing Seat
Mediation Cushion
The following will provide students with a calming activity in the Wellness Room to help them regulate their emotions:
Thinking Putty
Origami Paper
Speed Cube
Coloring Books
Scratch Art
Legos
Wooden Vehicle Carrier with Vehicles
Marble Run STEM Toy
Crayola Globbles
Zen and Kinetic Sand
Ball Spheres
Back and Neck Massager
Magenetic Blocks
Inkless Drawing Board
Cube Puzzles
Weighted Blanket
Dominoes
Stacking Rocks
Sensory Toys
Sensory Balls
Castle Blocks
Popper Fidgets
The following will allow students to listen to music in the Wellness Room to help them regulate their emotions:
