Dry Erase Clipboard

What is it?    1- Dry Erase Clipboard, 1- Dry Erase marker, 1- Dry erase Eraser, 1 – Double-sided Thought Card 

Why is it important?   The dry erase clipboard board allows students to practice self-awareness and goal-setting. You can use the “Thought Card” in the Calming Corner that gives students 3 reflective questions they can respond to while in the space. The thought card also has 5 reminders of calming strategies they can choose from, and what those strategies may assist them in doing. Some thought-provoking questions can be “Write or draw about one thing that brings you joy” or “How are you currently feeling .” Providing these thought-provoking questions, students choose how they express themselves and their current emotions through drawing or writing, which is a self-regulation strategy.

(Optional add-on) Flexible Seating Cushion

What is it?    A 15-inch vinyl memory foam cushion with an easy-to-use handle. The vinyl allows the cushion to be wiped down for easy sanitation, and the handle allows for easy transportation. 

Why is it important?   The portable cushion allows the Calming Corner space to be mobile if necessary for your class structure. It also promotes flexibility and comfort, which is essential when relaxing and de-escalating—flexible seating increases oxygen flow to the brain, and blood flow.
