I need something calming after recess/lunch before our ELA block. I’ve shown Sleepy Cat on YouTube since the second day and while I don’t want to give up on that entirely, I need another calming/grounding/settling thing for about 5 mins that I can just show since I need to also regroup myself quietly. Also: I’m new to 4th from HS and I appreciate any ideas. So much gratitude to this group!

Thank you. I will look that up.

DEAR time? (Drop Everything And Read) we did that when I was a 4th grader. It was my favorite time of day! We got to read any book of our choosing silently for 15 minutes.

Like that idea!

Maybe show 5 or 6 minutes of America’s Funniest Videos. It child friendly and it will keep them engaged while you regroup.

Ty. I will look it up

Maybe just meditation music? YouTube has hours long videos of meditation/earth sounds but you can find 15 min ones too so there’s probably ones for under 10. Just lights off, listening, head down on desks, and be zen 🧘‍♀️

That sounds like a great idea!

Have them read quietly or do some journal writing.

That is a great idea!

If you download an app like headspace ( or another meditation app but specifically for children) you can find some great short meditations. I know there is a meditation on YouTube called the cloud that's a visualization exercise. So if you could find a shorter more condensed version that could be fun!
