Mindfulness Instruction for Children

Hi everyone!

I recently joined a group of MA education students who are teaching mindfulness to 5th graders in a Tel Aviv school. The professor of this course is also writing a research about it. The attempt is to help kids with learning disabilities and emotional difficulties by teaching them mindfulness techniques.
The MA students have learned different techniques of meditation in the Fall semester and also theories and researches about mindfulness in education, health, and other related areas. In the Spring semester they are engaging in practice, so they teach 5th graders through 8 meetings. The class is divided to groups of 2-4 kids, with one or two instructors. I am one of the instructors.

I can write and update here how is this project going.
We also met with the parents once and explained to them what we are doing.

Please write questions or comments!
