More than $20 Pre-K Classroom Community Lesson (by date, oldest first)

Imagine an academic year where students and educators alike grow, learn more about themselves and others, integrating mindful activities seamlessly throughout the school day. 

Imagine a classroom that is regulated, calm and present. 
Everything you need in one product. 
When practiced regularly, witness improved behavior outcomes, social skills, and overall social-emotional development of students.
We know you don’t want to have to learn another initiative.
We know you want something that works.
We know you don’t have a lot of time to spare.
Believe me, working in schools the past 17 years has taught me that educators need proven techniques that they can use simply.
We have your back and we understand the pressures of time, testing, busyness, distraction, and stress!
If you can do a little each day for yourself and your class, you will see the shift happen.

What does the shift look like?
It's returning to focus with less drama and emotional outbursts.
It’s putting a pause between impulse and action...in other words, self-control.
It’s freeing up your time from behavior management to connect with students.
It's easier transitions.
It’s learning along with your students, growing together.
It's your students feeling your love and presence.
