SEL IN ACTION
Dallas ISD - Social and Emotional Learning - VOL 1 Issue 6
Mindfulness
The goal of mindfulness is to wake up to the inner workings of our mental, emotional, and physical processes.
Mindfulness is...
- Directing our attention to our experience as it unfolds.
- Trains us to respond skillfully to whatever is happening; good or bad.
- Improves our thought processes, feelings and concerns for others.
- Helps us perform better and feel calm.
Below are students from J.J. Rhoads Elementary practicing mindfulness before school.
SEL Competency - Self Management
- Managing stress
- Regulating one's emotions
- Self- control
- Self- motivation
- Setting and achieving goals

By reinforcing SEL Competencies in our daily interactions with students and co-workers we strengthen our connections to positive behavior systems and social and emotional wellness. This choice positively impacts our school and personal environments.
