My Students
Our students are all learning how to appropriately socialize and interact with their peers and adults. These boys are eager to participate in interactive, hands-on opportunities throughout the classroom and school community.
This year, we want to learn more strategies to effectively express our feelings through the use of yoga.
We will learn to calm down and become more patient with ourselves and our classmates. Yoga has been proven to reduce anxiety, negative emotions, stress, and obsessive behaviors. Practicing yoga together will bring us closer as a class and we hope to share what we learn with the whole school!
My Project
The boys from my class want to learn yoga! With your support, they will each get their own yoga mat to learn and practice within our classroom. Having their own individual yoga mats will give them more ownership of the skills they learn. This will allow them to practice effective calming and breathing strategies so they can better focus on academic instruction. Learning yoga as a class will help our class practice socializing with one another with a common goal. Eventually, they will share their new skills with other members of the school community.
We will learn yoga to promote a calm, safe, and happy school community.
