Research and my teacher practice show that students need to take screen breaks. My 4th grade class is doing amazing computer work; however, since four to seven hours of their school instruction is currently online, they need structured breaks to regulate their minds and bodies. Research on student engagement has found yoga helps with this. Our classroom practice of yoga and mindfulness has also helped; however, students are often seated for long periods of time, if not directed.
Yoga mats will be the perfect reward for their hard work and also encourage continued movement, regulating physical and emotional health. If funded, we will use the mats to practice classroom mindfulness, to stretch, and even to rest if we get tired in the classroom environment. They will ensure that everyone, whether at home or school has a space to rest, breathe and center.
