THEY CAN APPLY ON LINE.
THE CURRENT EMPLOYEES WILL GET
FIRST DIBS ON WHICH HOLIDAY
HOURS THEY WOULD LIKE TO WORK.
ONE OF THE CHALLENGES SCHOOL
TEACHERS FACE IS TO PAY
ATTENTION.
THEY ARE TURNING TO NEW
METHODS TO MANAGE CLASSROOM
DISTRACTIONS.
THIS IS A SOCIAL AND
EMOTIONAL LEARNING.
NATIONWIDE TREND.
IT IS ACROSS THE TR.
-- TWIN CITIES.
THEY WANT TO WORK MINDFUL
MEDITATION INTO THE SCHOOL DAY.
GO TO THE BACK OF THE
NOTEBOOK.
MATH TEACHER SETH BROWN IS
FACED WITH A CHALLENGE WHEN THE
STUDENTS TAKE THEIR SEATS.
IT IS DIFFERENT FROM WHERE
YOU IT DO YOUR CLASSWORK AND
HOMEWORK.
THEIR MINDS ARE ELSEWHERE.
I HAVE TO TEACH THEM MATH
WITH ALL THEIR HORMONES AND
SOCIAL THINGS.
THEY BROKE UP WITH THE I WOULD
FRIENDS OF TWO HOURS.
THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS THAT
GO ON.
AS YOU FINISH UP.
AT THE BEGINNING AND END OF THE
PREALGEBRA CLASS.
THEY GO INTO TIMEOUT.
SIT UP NICE AND TALL AND
FIND A NICE COMFORTABLE SPOT
AND SIT MOTIONLESS AND QUIET.
THEY CLOSE THEIR EYES AND
REMAIN SILENT AND STILL.
.
THIS IS A MINDFULNESS
EXERCISE.
IT IS WORTH IT TO TAKE FIVE
TOE 10 MINUTES OF A CLASS.
BECAUSE IF I CAN GET 20 MINUTES
OF FOCUSED LEARNING TIME THEY
WILL LEARN IT BETTER.
THEY WILL BE HAPPIER AND MORE
CALM AND LESS STRESSED.
THEY ARE NOT THINKING ABOUT THE
THINGS.
HE EXPERTMENTED LAST YEAR.
STUDENTS WERE LESS STRESSED.
MORE FOCUSED AND MORE PATIENT
WITH ONE ANOTHER.
THEY CAN USE THE MINDFULNESS
ON THEIR OWN TO START BREATHING
AND NOT DISRUPT AND MAYBE NOT
BURST OUT.
AND PECULIAR ON THEM.
AS THEY GROW OLDER.
THEY MAY FIND IT CONTINUES TO
BE VALUABLE.
