Early Learners Yellow enjoyed a cup of hot cocoa with marshmallows today to go with the letter “Cc” and to celebrate to season of Autumn.  The students even designed their own cup of cocoa. We watched a video about how cocoa is made and read the book, “Hot Cocoa Calm“.

With Mindfulness Moments for Kids, the students are learning easy ways to manage their bodies, their breathing, and their emotions. These mindfulness exercises are helpful in the car, at soccer practice, or waiting in line. I see students implement these strategies on a daily basis. Self-regulation is a lifelong skill.
