Sensory bottles are often referred to as calm jars. When a sensory bottle has items such as glitter in it that move slowly, children are often mesmerized by watching their slow descent and this calms their breathing and helps them regulate themselves and their emotions.
Although my students are kindergarteners, they often have BIG feelings that they don't know how to handle yet.
Allowing each student to make a calm jar that will be readily available for them to use, as they see the need, will assist students in regulating their own emotions.
My goal for this project is that the social emotional needs of all students are addressed, and a viable way for them to have autonomy over their emotions is in place grade wide.
