36: Mindful Miss K & ADHD in the Classroom

Cheryl sits down with ADHD-Certified Rehabilitation Service Provider, Pediatric Occupational Therapist and Registered Yoga Teacher, Miss K. This episode hit home for Cheryl, not just as a teacher but also as a parent of a child with ADHD. Listen in and learn what you can do in the classroom and in your home, if you are in contact with students who struggle with attention and regulation. Miss K introduces us to the magic behind using Tingsha Bells, timers, visual lists, brain breaks and so much more.

"Educational structuring research tells us that the first 5 minutes of instruction is wasted time and the perfect opportunity for self-regulation activity."

"When you engage in movement for 5 minutes or longer, your brain becomes flooded with norepinephrine which helps you stay task oriented."
