The Mindful Student
Fly Five’s The Mindful Student is a school-based mindfulness program that provides students with research-based tools, exercises, and strategies to build self-awareness and self-regulation skills so they can remain in control of their emotions, behavior, and actions. As a proactive discipline strategy, mindfulness supports intrinsic motivation, self-discipline, and autonomy in the classroom—all skills needed for students to achieve academic success.
The Mindful Student cards in Fly Five are brief, yet get students to have an awareness of themselves, emotions, body, and mind. It serves them well before we continue with our day. Ina Pannell-Sain Surin, Fly Five Ambassador and 5th grade teacher
