We hope to equip each of our 26 classrooms with a mindfulness corner or "Bear Den" where students can self-regulate and use this area to bring down their heightened emotions. Mental and emotional wellness are vital to a successful school. Currently, each classroom has a quiet corner with a desk but we would like the corners to be more sensory friendly, therefore we are hoping to fund beanbag chairs for every classroom. This will help meet the varied sensory needs of our students.
When students have alternate seating, it helps promote a calm and mindful environment. With calm surroundings our students can excel in the learning environment. This emotion regulation ties to social emotional learning and is supported by each classroom having a calming "Bear Den." This "Bear Den" will only be as great as we imagine it if we are able to support our children and fund our project.
