With the dividers, the children can feel as though they are still present in the classroom, while also having a "space" all their own at the time. The cushions would make the space more comfortable and inviting, and the soft dough will allow them the opportunity to use their hands to create and calm their minds. The activity may allow for clearer thinking, or it may simply give them a mental escape that is long enough to simply regain composure and be ready to re-enter the classroom with a more peaceful and productive mindset.
When my students are feeling stressed or overwhelmed, it would help if they were able to remove themselves from a situation without feeling isolated completely, allowing them to think about what has them upset or feeling uneasy and calm their bodies and minds.
