    \n
  1. Describe the activity you selected and your experience teaching the activity. How did your student(s) respond? What went well? Would you adapt this activity in any way to feel more natural to teach or meet the needs of your student?<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Describe one or more scenarios when this activity could support student engagement and classroom management?<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Respond to at least one of your colleagues with a reflection on or connection to their post. (Your response should be meaningful, with a goal to push each other\u2019s thinking rather than offering a superficial exchange. <\/span>Please see rubric<\/strong>)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n

    The activity that I selected to practice was \u201cAnchor Breath.\u201d I practiced this activity with a colleague of mine. First, I explained that the concept of the Anchor Breath is to help bring their attention to the present moment and promote relaxation. After this, we found a quiet and comfortable space where she could sit down. After conducting the experiment, my colleague stated that she enjoyed it, and it helped to calm her down from the stress of regents week. After practicing this with my colleague, I can definitely see myself implementing \u201cAnchor Breath\u201d exactly how it is. I personally don\u2019t see the need to change this activity in any way due to the fact that it was a success.<\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    The Anchor Breath technique can support student engagement and classroom management in a myriad of different ways. Practicing the Anchor Breath can help students develop focused attention by directing their focus to the present moment and the sensations of their breath. This enhanced attention can improve their ability to concentrate on academic tasks, follow instructions, and actively engage in classroom activities. Additionally, the Anchor Breath cultivates self-regulation skills by teaching students to observe their thoughts and emotions without judgment and gently redirect their attention to the present moment. This self-awareness helps students regulate their own behavior, emotions, and responses, leading to improved classroom management. Students can become more aware of their own needs and employ the Anchor Breath as a self-regulation strategy when they feel overwhelmed or agitated.<\/span><\/p>\n
