Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 22

Wow!! The addition of a calming to my fifth grade classroom was so impactful. Not only did my students gain several new tools in their toolbelts for staying calm and reframing their emotions but they were able to support one another! Whether it was using clay to build a creature, the noise cancelling headphones to refocus on work, or Omi the calming elephant, the 22 students in fifth learned one thing... staying calm is important!

Original Grant Overview

Goal

The goal is to create a safe space for students to learn about their emotions and explore ways to manage those emotions.  

 

What will be done with my students

After experiencing COVID, my fifth graders are in dire need of a way to learn about their emotions and to explore safe ways to manage those emotions. Because my students missed some crucial, in person, time to explore their emotions they have struggled with developing the necessary skills to cope and grow through typical fifth grade struggles.  

 

Benefits to my students

These skills will provide my students with skills that will last a lifetime. Learning to identify negative emotions and having a tool kit to support them will help them in middle school, high school, and beyond.

These are the items that will be necessary for creating a corner that will provide my students with a calm area for managing their emotions.
