In this experiential session, we will examine themes of embodied awareness, emotional intelligence, self- regulation, and resiliency, as outlined in the new Physical Education and Wellness curriculum. We will participate in activities that draw on the teachings of mindful awareness to bolster well-being in ourselves and in our students. We will learn how bringing mindful, embodied awareness and nature connection together can support ourselves and our students to weather the inevitable difficulties that arise in life, in teaching, and in learning. Come for a wellness break for yourself, and by extension, learn how to share some of these simple principles and fun practices with your students. Although this session will be geared toward those who work with students from Kindergarten to Grade 4, all are welcome! We will spend a portion of the session outside at a nearby park – please come dressed appropriately.
