Quality Education Engaged Learners Success for All

How do you feel about your success?! Taking the time to do circles was important to develop healthy relationships among the students. The students say "WE are a family". They care for each other therefore, they respect and want the best for the class which reflects on our learning in class. They often asked to have a circle session even if it was not scheduled. Every morning when we do mindful activities, modeling is important. I've had “student name” close his eyes, breath deeply and share that he felt the sand on his toes. We even shared that it was difficult to meditate at times and that we might need to redo it and breath deeper through the day. This mindfulness is in schools around the world. When students reflect on their day and take the time to think, it permits their mind to process everything and start fresh. For me, it's been a real success to include circles and mindfulness activities. Voilà, I was too excited not to share my views.
