TITLE:
2021 - Mindfulness Practices for Your Classroom
DESCRIPTION:
Now more than ever, students and teachers need mindfulness. Mindfulness practices are proven to not only increase academic performance and decrease disruptive behavior, but also to help students manage stress and anxiety through self-regulation skills; addressing the critical need for whole-child learning. All of these benefits create a classroom that is more equitable, peaceful, and safer for all children.
In this two-day course, you will learn the tools that are needed to implement mindfulness practices--including mindful breathing, mindful awareness, and mindful movement--into your classroom. Teachers from all grade levels and subject matter will gain the confidence and skills needed to share mindfulness practices with their students. Teachers will also learn to prioritize self-care as a way to manage the stress of teaching and life, allowing us to show up fully for our students.
