Cultivating Mindfulness in the Classroom: The Classroom Strategies Series

In Cultivating
Mindfulness in the Classroom, author Jeanie M. Iberlin and contributor Mike
Ruyle advocate that F–12 teachers must use mindfulness practice in the
classroom so students know how to cope with their emotions as they learn and
grow. They illustrate that mindfulness is an effective, low-cost way for
educators to help students manage their stress, focus their brains for extended
periods of time and increase their emotional intelligence. Teachers can foster
better classroom cultures and higher student achievement when they make
students more mindful of their emotions.

Part of The Classroom
Strategies Series, this clear, highly practical guide follows the series
format, first summarising key research and then translating it into
recommendations for classroom practice.
