We are practicing mindfulness!
We try to do this at least three times a week, as a way to find quiet, reflect and refocus. As a class we get comfortable and listen to a program from Mrs Cutler's 'Smiling Mind' app. Kakapo realised that in our busy lives it is hard to find quiet- we are often busy, rushing, learning, playing, talking, going to after school activities etc and the only times we are quiet is when we are in bed about to go sleep. We decided this is not good enough!
Mindfulness helps us to take a moment to relax and think. We use this time to think about what we are grateful for. Mindfulness is a nice way to lead into prayer before we go out to lunch or go home.
