My Project

In kindergarten sometimes our feelings get so big we need a quiet space to go calm down. Unfortunately, my classroom does not have a quiet corner to retreat to and calm down. The Calm Down Cube will provide students with a private space they can go to practice some calm down strategies away from everyone.

My goal is that students can calm down quickly and return to the learning space in the classroom.

Students will be taught how to use the Calm Down Cube. The Calm Down Cube will provide students with a private quiet space to use some calm down strategies that we learn in class. Once students are calm they can return to learning.
