While Calming Corners are often designed for younger students, this resource is thoughtfully crafted for middle and high school students, providing age-appropriate activities and mature, appealing graphics. Each component is tailored to support older students in managing emotions, building coping skills, and practicing mindfulness in a way that resonates with their needs and interests.

I am so excited to introduce the Breathe & Calm: Breathing Techniques for Middle and High School Students —an essential resource for any high school Calm Corner. This collection features 10 calming breathing exercises and offers students a dedicated space and the opportunity to take a few minutes to practice various techniques, allowing them to find the one most suitable for managing their emotions, regaining focus, and calming down during stressful or overwhelming moments. Perfect for fostering a supportive classroom environment, this resource empowers students to develop healthy, effective coping strategies.

What's Included:

❤️ Breathing Techniques Task Cards in color and black-and-white formats, ideal for quick, individual use, as part of a classroom station, in Calm Corners, or for small group exercises.

❤️ Instructional Posters in two variations, both containing the same information but presented differently to support diverse visual needs:

• Paragraph Form: Calm, easy-to-follow descriptions of each technique.

• Step-by-Step Form: Clear, actionable steps for guided breathing, ideal for students who benefit from seeing instructions broken down step by step.

• Each poster variation is available in color and black-and-white to suit various classroom decor styles.

❤️ Reflection Worksheets in two variations, available in both print and digital versions:

• ❤ Three-Question Variation: Students reflect with three targeted questions after each breathing exercise.

• ❤ Teacher-Generated Question Option: A space for a custom question, encouraging personalized reflection.

• ❤ Sample responses are provided for the three-question worksheet to offer insight into meaningful reflection practices.

• ❤ Worksheet Formats: Available in both print and digital formats, this resource can be easily incorporated into physical and virtual Calm Corners, wellness check-ins, or individual mindfulness exercises. Text boxes have already been created!

❤️ Decorative Circle Accents (10 circles in three variations): Featuring each breathing technique title, provided in three design options to create a cohesive and inviting Calm Corner or bulletin board display.

❤️ Binder Covers (18 options): Choose from a selection of "Breathe & Calm" covers with mature, high school-friendly graphics. These covers can be used to display in binders, or even posted on walls or bulletin boards to showcase Calm Corners or breathing technique stations, adding a cohesive and appealing look to the space.

Practice important social skills like active listening, turn-taking, and engaging in reciprocal conversations.

By using a visual representation to track the flow of conversation, students are able to physically see if their conversations are a good balance of both questions and comments.

This way YOU don't have to interrupt to prompt them, thus making their conversation unnatural and reduces prompt dependency!

Included are:

6 different color conversation trees

2 different black & white conversation trees

2 spinners with conversation starters

1 spinner template to write your own starters

8 sheets of fruit/leaf icons for the trees

How to Play!
Students are given a set of icons, such as fruit or leaves. Students determine which icon will represent a question and which will represent a comment. (E.g. Apples = questions, Pears= comments).

Each time a student makes a comment or asks a question, they place that icon on the tree. As the conversation progresses, the tree should be fairly balanced between both apples and pears.
