Social Skills
New This Year
Mindfulness!
We will be spending some time with mindfulness topics to help us in understanding our brain and how it helps us with self regulation. Each lesson offers strategies for helping students focus their attention, improve self regulation, build resilience to stress, and develop a positive mid-set in both school and life.
We started by learning about our brain. Click on the video to hear what we learned.
