Testimonials:

I love using the wall for a sensory break!

“I like playing with it because it has so many different things!”

“Super cool- the students just can’t get enough of it!”

I love that it included the pieces for the activity (hexagonal thinking), so I can easily try it out in my classroom. I also loved that I could look through the information when I had the time. The treats were a lovely and kind bonus.

It was convenient, applicable to my classroom, and motivating because of the food! Love it.

It was easy to complete the form and the topic choices were not overwhelming. I was able to choose something relevant to my current needs. The treats were an added bonus.

I appreciated this approach for multiple reasons. The novelty and treats were unique and super engaging. The material I looked at was something I could use immediately.

The Clam Down Corner was not in a “corner” in my classroom, so we called it “mindful Moment.” Students were able to take a Mindful Moment when they felt they needed to reset. Teachers also had the opportunity to give a student a “Mindful Moment” toke as a signal to take a break. All students benefitted from these resources and it was a great addition to my classroom that I will continue to use each year!

My kids really liked the Calm Down Corner. It made them feel safe and gave them a chance to regroup when they felt stressed.

I really appreciate having a Calm Down Corner in our classroom because it empowers children and supports a calm and respectful classroom culture!  Children can go there to calm down if they are feeling stressed or upset, or even if they are hyper and have to settle themselves.  It is great to empower children to recognize this in themselves and find their voices to ask for time in this calming space.  Sometimes in our large class, a child may just need to step off for a few minutes to reset.  I love how the children respect each other enough to recognize that they may need this time or when others need it.  It is supportive of our PBIS objectives of Respectful, Responsible, Safe, and Kind!  I even use it after the AM Kinders leave to reset for my afternoon!
