School- based yoga and mindfulness practices are necessary across all ages and grade levels. Especially after a year that has been particularly challenging for many students, children are in need of a physical outlet. The items in my cart consistent of a bean bag and zen tent, which will be put in our Calm Down Corner. Students will be provided this space in order to reflect on their own feelings and problem solve. The rolling cart will be used to store fidget toys. The fidget toys will be used as a tool for special education students, in order to increase focus and mindfulness. The gift card to Teachers Pay Teachers will be used to print out student journals, in which each student will be provided. The coloring books are also going to be used for students to ease student anxiety, and as a way to refocus and be mindful. This will help students express themselves in a creative and purposeful way. The meditation bench will also be placed in the Calm Down Corner. The sensory lights will be used while students are doing yoga, or at the end and beginning of each day, in order to help transition in and out. The string lights will be used in order to help create a calming and peaceful ambiance in the Calm Down Corner. Upon receiving my certification in teaching Yoga & Mindfulness, I am extremely eager to incorporate what I have learned into the classroom. Practicing yoga has many benefits that will help students progress- improved memory, improved attention span, improved fine/gross motor skills, are only a few. With an emphasis on teaching in a Title I school, it is my priority to ensure my students' mental and physical health are being acknowledged, and that their needs are met.
