This week we welcomed a new feature to the outside of the room--The Calm Cove! While we strive to make our room, inside and out, calm, cozy, and inviting, we had the idea to create a space where students could go and be alone when they were feeling overwhelmed. This could be after a conflict, when struggling on an assignment, or any other situation where students need to take some time to clear their mind and reset. There are various "tools" in the space that can aid students in calming the mind: essential oil blends, plants, GROK cards/Feelings cards, a book of yoga postures/stretches, mandala coloring sheets, and various books regarding big emotions. The photos above capture students exploring and enjoying the new space together.
