Support Ms. Sanchez's classroom with a gift that fosters learning.
I want to provide a safe place where students are able to take time to self-regulate. With the pillows and beanbag chairs to create a comfortable area in our classroom, I will have a more engaging Zen Corner and start creating a stronger classroom community. My students will feel more comfortable showing their feeling and building rapport.
A few key things for an effective Zen Corner include a calming space, no cell phones, and plenty of tools to allow for self-regulation. The pen and whiteboard are something my students requested in order to do a “brain dump” to help get those negative thoughts out of their heads. Sometimes we get inside our own head and stop ourselves from moving forward. With brain dumps, they can write all those negative thoughts out.
