What's the brain science behind calming jars?

Transitions (like coming back to class after lunch) are often challenging for students. Try making it a daily practice to use a calming jar after lunch.
When the students come in, turn on a regulating song and shake the calming jar, setting it down in the front of the classroom for them to watch.
All you need to make your own jar is:
➡️ Glitter glue
➡️ Hot water
➡️ Sequins
➡️ A mason jar with a lid
