Thank you Dr. Randy Boardman for providing an interactive and helpful virtual presentation on Time to Teach! We had over 20 participants that received wonderful resources to help students with social-emotional skills!

ESU 16 Mental Health/Behavior Team had our monthly meeting. We start every meeting with a mindfulness activity. Here is one we did this month! It is a good yoga pose to help if you are sitting for long hours! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SedzswEwpPw

Our team is here for you all and if you ever need ideas for self-care/mindfulness activities for children and adults feel free to reach out to us at mentalhealth@esusixteen.org or check out our website page https://www.esu16.org/o/esu-16/page/mental-health for additional information!
