For many, the passage into Autumn means a shift from Summer to the academic year. That passage is marked by changes of season. Long days and short nights turn to shorter days and longer nights. Summer days may have been filled with recreation, camp, family, and travel. Now schools days are filled with academics, homework, extracurricular activities, and busy schedules.

With all the changes, some students and families experience anxiety, stress, and difficulty balancing all they need to do. 

Our Autumn Yoga Sequence can help yoga practitioners of all ages to feel a deeper sense of balance within. 

With yoga and mindfulness, kids can become more calm, focused in school, and empowered to start every day with confidence and compassion.

Explore the benefits of Yoga and Mindfulness

• More self-awareness
• Improved focus
• Attunement to nature
• Experience in mindfulness with real-world context 
• Fun
• Promotes physical and mental wellbeing
• Improved balance

WHAT'S INCLUDED....

1. Back to School Bulletin Board Bundle

Includes 3 All About Me activities featuring fashion sneakers and crocs and is the perfect way to get to know your students! Crocs, Converse and Nike Air Jordans are popular among teens, and any teacher that presents an activity using them will receive immediate engagement and be crowned the "cool teacher." **A DIGITAL VERSION OF THE CROCS ACTIVITY IS NOW INCLUDED IN THE DOWNLOAD!** Students can now fill in the text boxes and cut and paste the Jibbitz using Google Slides (or PowerPoint if downloaded).

Perfect for Back to School season to get your new batch of kiddos better acquainted with each other! Use this activity year after year, as students get to know each other through their interests rather than completing a boring worksheet!

Makes for a unique hallway bulletin board display as well, just in time for Open House or Parent Night! A printable PDF banner that reads " Walking into the New School Year Like..." is included, which makes for a quick and easy setup because there's no individual letters to have to tediously cut out!

These resources require NO PREP - simply print, complete the short writing prompts, color, cut out and hang!

This resource includes:

• Completed Color Croc, Jordans, and Converse Samples for Demonstration
• 3 Printable All About Me Templates
• Digital Google Slides version of the Crocs All About Me

2. Would You Rather

A fun whole class activity with questions that align with student interests and are the perfect mix of silly, funny, trending, gaming & social media-related topics. No prep is needed! Whether you call it "Would You Rather" or "This or That," the prompts make a great conversation starter that kids love, and they will be begging you for more!

⭐I like to use these slides for a quick brain break. I use about 10 slides at a time!

• 100 Would You Rather Slides (Now in Google Slides!)

Note: If your district does not allow you to add to your Google Drive, or you would prefer a PDF version of this activity, simply send me a message here with your email address through the Q&A and I will email it to you after you have purchased the resource.

Ideas for using these questions:

• In centers
• During transitions
• For brain breaks
• Extra time filler
• At the end of the day
• During morning meeting
• To facilitate respectful discussion or debate
• To build critical thinking skills
• To practice communicating ideas
• To defend thoughts and opinions
• For a fun activity!!!

3. Four Corners

Use this fun whole class activity to get your students up and out of their seats and making connections! You will find a few typical all about me questions, but the majority of the slides are geared toward the interests of teenagers, leaning into social media, musical artists, food, fashion and more! You definitely won't see overused questions like "what's your favorite color?" or "How many siblings do you have?" You'll see instant engagement as students realize this isn't another boring classroom game.

Simply print the included labels for each corner of your classroom and project one of the questions. Read it aloud, then students should move to the corner that corresponds with their answer choices. You'll quickly see that students will start opening up as they relax and feel confident to defend their choices.
