Monday:
Ideas for the classroom:
Help the students by modeling as a whole class on Monday, then ask them to do it on their own on Tues. - Fri. If the students can't come up with 3, ask them to come up with at least 1.
Possible teacher prompt:
Welcome to Mindfulness Monday! Have you been wondering WHY we are doing these Mindfulness Monday tips?
Have you ever felt angry, irritated, anxious, frustrated, and overwhelmed? Our brain can't really think when we feel that way. We deal with these feelings in a variety of ways. We might respond by avoiding; we might put our head down in class, skip, stay home that day. Sometimes we get so angry that we punch things, yell, run down the hall. Other times, we aren't sure what to do so we end up stuck with those feelings.
The Mindfulness Monday tips help us to calm down so that we don't have to feel upset, angry, frustrated, and all of those other uncomfortable feelings the whole day.
Here is another strategy you can try the next time you feel overwhelmed, angry, upset, etc
Take a deep breath in and out and name 3 things you can see.
Take another deep breath in and out and name 3 things you can smell.
Take another deep breath in and out and name 3 things you can hear.
Take another deep breath in and out and name 3 things you can touch.
Breathe in and out 3 times.
