Hopefully you were able to come to Milne Grove and meet with your child’s teacher for a conference. Did you see colorful posters? We ended the first trimester of Morning Mindfulness with providing time for the students to work in groups to produce a poster about an agreed upon mindfulness strategy. There were posters that covered being mindful of our thoughts, feelings, and bodies. Most of the student groups chose to highlight a way to be mindful of your body such as Calm Down Cocoa Breathing or Yoga. There were students who chose to draw about being mindful of their thoughts with the Visualization strategy. And some students wanted to make a poster about being mindful of feelings when they Listen to Music. All of our mindfulness strategies help us improve our attention and self-regulation. It is okay to have some favorite strategies and some that you don’t like much.
Are you curious about what we do in Morning Mindfulness? Do you want to know more about it? Is there anything stopping you from practicing mindfulness yourself or from using it with your children? Mrs. Draper and I will be happy to answer your questions!
