Teachers tell me they can't integrate yoga and mindfulness for two reasons: They don't know how and they don't have time. I hear that 100%.
This product is made to help you SAVE time, but first, you have to invest your time. If you spend ten minutes a day, 3 times a week in September and October, by November you only spend 5 minutes, and by January kids are doing this all by themselves. You can learn it together and then you ALL get the skills! Imagine that! Imagine the time you will save not micro-managing behavior.
A colleague and first-grade teacher name Nicole did just as I described above and her class was lightyears more manageable by mid-year than the other groups. People would comment about how quietly they walked in the hallway and how quickly they transitioned from activity to activity. She invested the time and was paid back in dividends. I developed this product to help others share in Nicole's success.
Together, we can use yoga and mindfulness to learn about and take care of our bodies.
Social-emotional learning and self-awareness can be learned using this product. Think of the responsible decisions children can begin to make when we help them connect the dots inward and outward.
Commit to this lesson unit to help your students become more aware of their bodies as you guide them to make mindful connections between how body parts may feel and how can we care for ourselves. Explore ten (10) key body parts and how we can use body awareness to learn about our bodies and emotions while gaining valuable exercise. Each body part has accompanying yoga poses, mindful activities, and facilitated discussion prompts.
This lesson unit includes:
Teacher’s Manual and accompanying Student Workbook that kids will love!
Teach students to care for themselves using our Teacher’s Manualand companion Student Workbook. Use the Yoga Pose Index to discover how to do each pose, written for children.
All of the content featured in the Student Workbook is expanded for teachers and parents in the Teacher’s Manual, so you can use them together. Use the accompanying presentation on a smartboard for visual aid. The Student Workbook features a body awareness journal that kids can fill out while learning yoga poses and mindfulness activities.
In the Teacher’s Manual, you will find:
In the Student Workbook, you will find:
The Presentation works amazingly well on a SmartBoard or any device, so you can follow the talking points as you naturally veer into an interesting discussion with your students.
These lessons plans can be used as a yoga class series, or easily incorporated into the school classroom or at home.
This download includes four (4) PDFs which you can view on your phone, tablet, computer or print out onto paper.

By West Coast Indigenous Teacher
Dive into outdoor education with this outdoor learning bundle. Indigenous Sacred Medicines, nature journal activity, I Spy seasonal sit spot activity, nature scavenger hunt, discover the cedar tree, and learn about the Indigenous history of lacrosse. 10+ outdoor education learning activities within this bundle!
Resources included in this bundle are:
1) Outdoor Education Nature Journal
Connect to nature, observe the land you live and learn on. This nature journal includes 4 writing prompts and 2 fun activities to do outside.
2) Indigenous Sacred Medicines
Students will understand the cultural significance of tobacco, sage, cedar and sweetgrass - the four Indigenous Sacred Medicines. Students will learn how Indigenous people use these plants in ceremony and in daily life. Students will learn about the life cycle of these plants and they will create a Sacred Medicines booklet.
3) Cedar Tree Inquiry
Learn about cedar, the tree of life for Indigenous people. 1 of 4 Sacred Indigenous Medicines. Traditional uses of cedar, the origin of cedar, the cultural importance. Students will get the chance to make traditional cedar tea and students will work hard to create a tree ring project which represents their life so far. These turn out beautifully.
4) Indigenous Nature Search and Find (Scavenger Hunt Activity)
A fun, no prep outdoor education activity for students! Learn how Indigenous people value nature and the Earth. Like a scavenger hunt, students will search for (but will not touch or disturb) 7 nature items. This activity is made for people in British Columbia; as some items are specific to this province. Items are: cedar, fir, ferns, a feather, moss, spider web and a bug & student choice. I love doing this activity during spring time!
5) Indigenous History of Lacrosse
Do your students LOVE the sport of lacrosse? Mine too. This resource teaches you the Indigenous history of lacrosse. Two activities included: lacrosse reflection questions, and drawing activity.
6) I Spy Activity
Explore the seasons with our 'I Spy' activity book for kids! Each page is packed with fun challenges for students to study leaves, trees, and colours outdoors. With one page for each season, it's the perfect way to learn and play in nature!
