Students will spend the first part of the afternoon reading for 20 minutes. From there, students will tackle their assignments from their anchor binders. Once homework is completed, students may play board games, work on puzzles or art projects, read, have free play on iPads, or go out on the playground, weather permitting.
Students will unwind, explore art, as a contemplative practice, and see how creativity and mindfulness can come together to promote relaxation and enjoyment. Students will also learn mindful breathing techniques that can be used in and out of the classroom. Draw, color, write, journal or paint freely/joyfully. Get ready to be relaxed and energized for the back end of your day! Instructor Hannah Topka
