Journaling Music
These are instrumental soundtracks offered to help sensory intense students focus through the use of headphones or earbuds.
They are arranged to last 12 to 16 minutes, about the time we spend on reflection and journaling sessions at the beginning and end of the day.

- Headphones or earbuds are required--previous classroom experience has shown "keeping it turned down low" is not enough to avoid creating discord if several students play different tracks, or (even worse) play the same track with a few seconds' lag.
- Even with headphones or earbuds, please do not play music from the archive at a level that would be distracting to your classmates.
- Please take care that the browsing and selection of music do not distract you from the work at hand. Take no more than a minute to settle in before you begin to think and write. Enjoy!
