My Desk is My Special Spot
My Safe Space
In my classroom, I have my very own desk. This desk is my safe spot.
When my teacher says it is work time, I walk safely to my desk and sit down.

How to Sit Safely
Safe Body
To keep my body safe and ready to learn, I follow three rules:
- My bottom stays on the chair.
- My feet stay flat on the classroom floor.
- My hands stay on my desktop surface.

First Work, Then Break
First / Then
I work first, then I play.
First, I stay in my seat and complete my desk task. Then, my timer rings and I can color or draw a picture of a dinosaur!

Asking for a Break
Raise Hand
If my body feels tired or I need a break, I can raise my hand calmly.
I can show my Break Card or use a calm voice to say, "Break, please." This makes my teacher happy!
