Calm Centre

Our classroom includes a Calming Corner. This area can be used by students when they need to take a break from others during free time or once they have finished their work. As stated by Maich, Davies, and Rhijn (2018), all students have moments of anxiety and stress and having a break space within the everyday classroom environment can help support and resolve these issues (p. 1). This calming corner will contain comfortable furniture such as bean bags chairs, a carpet, and a canopy above to help soften the light. There will also be sensory items such as stress balls, noise cancelling headphones, and calm down sensory bottles. These items can help support the students in managing their stress and anxiety, allowing them to come back to the classroom with a greater ability to focus and advance their learning.
