School Story in Action 2023-2024 

 

November 24, 2023 

 This week we would like to feature a daily routine called a “soft start.” Each morning in Division 7, students begin by preparing their mind, body, and environment for the school day. This could be finding a calm activity to do on their own or finding a safe space to check in with others. Part of their soft start is mindfulness time.  During mindfulness time, they get their bodies and minds calm and ready for the day. The time is used engaging in a topic they are currently interested in or setting their intention and tone for the day.  

 This links to our School Story focus in the following way: 

Learning is holistic, reflexive, reflective, experiential, and relational (focused on connectedness, on reciprocal relationships, and a sense of place). 

(First Peoples Principles of Learning)
