A Calm Down Corner can give students permission to pause, breathe, and calm down in the classroom. In this Calm Down Corner Kit resource, we provide engaging and calming social emotional learning activities to help your students prepare to learn and focus throughout the school day. You will find everything you need to implement a calm down corner.
The way you organize your calm down corner is up to you! You can choose one activity to place in the corner or select a few items. You can have one bin that you rotate activities, or you can have multiple bins with different activities at once. You can also have multiple bins of the same materials. As an option, place reflection sheets in the calm down area. If using reflection sheets, provide multiple copies for students to have easy access to them.
We have included an “I feel…, I can…” poster with feeling and calm down activity circle choices. Students can select a feeling and then pick a calm down activity and place it on the poster using magnets or Velcro.
