The curriculum and books I am requesting will be used every month as I teach grades K-5 students how to use their tools in TOOLBOX by practicing mindfulness. I trained my staff on Mindfulness prior to COVID-19 and they are ready and willing to go. I just need these resources to really get the program going.
Here's why... Mindfulness teaches kids to stay calm during stress, it creates good habits for the future and when kids are faced with life challenges during these unprecedented times, they learn they can find peace by taking a few moments to stop, breathe and meditate. Not to mention, learning mindfulness increases their smile factor and promotes happiness lowing social anxiety and stress.
Mindfulness also promotes patience. Who doesn't want a more patient child? In many cases it can be life changing by improving functions in their brain like cognitive control, working memory, cognitive flexibility and better grades. It can also help my ADHD kiddos to be more attentive and learn impulse control.
Please help us transform our school from the inside out by providing the curriculum and books we need to become a Mindful School.
Thank you for your kindness and thoughtful consideration.
