VIDEO LIBRARY INTRODUCTION

SCHOOL YOGA & MINDFULNESS PRACTICE GUIDELINES

The teacher sits on the floor or in a chair positioned at the front of the class where they can see all the students.
Students sit on the reading rug in rows facing the teacher and the whiteboard (where the video lesson is projected).
Students sit in their usual learning spots.
Students can remain seated in their chairs without leaning back so that they hold themselves upright.
Chairs are slightly away from desks for safe movement.
Avoid using mats, blankets, and cushions which cause extra distractions.
Students should have nothing in their hands.
Students always keep their shoes on in the classroom to remain safe and avoid a fire hazard.
Implement the program during the school day to support classroom learning.
Avoid using the program as a brain break or directly after recess (best use is between subjects).
It is best to practice inside the classroom (our usual place of learning).
Normalize the SCHOOL Yoga & Mindfulness Program as a subject of study within the bell schedule.
