Essential Question: How can I learn to speak up for myself?

 

“Children who practice yoga may not only be better able to regulate their emotions, manage stress and calm themselves, studies now show that they may also choose better foods to eat and engage in more physical activity than children who do not.” ~ Binzen, Mira “Yoga for Children–Now Proven Effective!”



I'll leave you with this joke:
Where do fish go to do yoga?
The river bend

The project came out wonderfully! Take a look at some pictures!

The students had a great time reading the story. Most of them had never heard it so it was a real treat!

DASH in action!

                            DASH stands for Disability Awareness Starts Here!
The purpose of DASH is to create an awareness and sensitivity among children, teachers, and parents to the needs of people who are disabled. Discussions and activities explored each other's uniqueness, strengths and weaknesses, the value of differences and the importance of friends and friendships.
Throughout the program the emphasis was on abilities rather than disabilities and discussions about what a person who is disabled can do.
Take a look at us in action and ask us to share our learning.
