Open Mind & Happy Heart: Mindfulness.

This school year we are taking part in the project called "Open Mind & Happy Heart". Since it is an International project we will get to know other children from different countries. Most of them are Italian. We are glad to work together, and we hope that we will make friends with them. Our meeting place where we can share ideas, exchange practice examples, and plan other activities is on the twinspace. We found our parter schools on the eTwinning website. It is a community for schools in Europe that offers a secure platform for teachers and students to communicate and collaborate on projects. This school year we will be dealing with mindfulness, which has become very popular around the world. Mindfulness means simply focusing on the present, not on the past or future. It is a "stop button" that allows you to take a deep breath, and thus make right decisions. 

Today grade 3A have designed posters that will promote mindfulness as a daily practice. The children have been learning about the benefits of mindfulness, among many of them are self-control, objectivity, affect tolerance, improved concentration, emotional intelligence, mental clarity and the ability to relate to others and onself with kindness, acceptance and compassion. Once again third graders have proved that they are creative. When they finished their posters, they decided to make games about mindfulness. And many, fresh ideas have been put into action. Here are the results of their work. I think there is a reason to be proud of :-)
