According to the video, how does a calm and peaceful environment affect children's learning?

It builds brain architecture and enables them to learn more effectively.

What is one way schools can help students feel safe and secure, according to Michelle?

By creating a welcoming place where kids want to come every day.

It provides a sense of calm and predictability, allowing the brain to focus on learning instead of constantly adjusting to new stimuli.

Preparing breakfast, teachers greeting students at the door, and including natural elements like plants and essential oils.

Ensuring kids' bodies feel good is an important step to making sure their brains are in a good place for learning.

I can describe how the physical environment of my high school supports or hinders learning.
