Mindfulness Training

Today Ms. Dion and I went to a Mindfulness/Restorative Practices workshop.  It was fabulous.  Mindfulness may be a new buzzword in education, but it really is an important aspect of daily classroom life.  Students are busier than ever and have very high expectations to meet.  The more we strategies they have, the easier it will be for them to self-regulate themselves.
Here are some websites that can give you more information:
