Every afternoon after lunch we practice mindfulness in the classroom. Last week we continued working on belly breathing and being aware of our 5 senses.

Throughout the month of October we have been incorporating mindfulness in the classroom. We started off by reading, "Good Morning Sunshine," by Trina Markusson. Then, we created mindfulness jars and chose our mindfulness critters to help with belly breathing. On October 17th, we were lucky enough to have Trina Markusson visit the school where she provided us new strategies on how mindfulness can be used throughout the school day and at home. We will continue integrating mindfulness throughout the day and we will be learning new mindfulness strategies throughout the year.
