I think there’s strong evidence that mindfulness helps students in a number of ways. But I’d caution against mandating it. #caedchat

Mindfulness should be modeled, led and practiced in all classrooms so Ss live that way when they leave our care. #caedchat

LemarrTreadwell Dec 11 @ 11:08 PM EST

A1. I equate mindfulness as self-reflection. Ss who do not self-reflect struggle with knowledge and reasoning #caedchat
