OJHS FIRST QUARTER HONOR ROLL
Choose Love Curriculum
Did you know that you have between 50,000 to 70,000 thoughts each day? Isn't that amazing? What's not amazing, is that about 95% of those thoughts are those repeated from the day before and about 80% of those thoughts are negative! Our mind is constantly working to help us learn, make sense of the world, and make decisions. When we feel anxious, nervous, afraid, or angry we might start hearing the negative thoughts.
Seventh grade discussed the difference between Mind-full and Mindful.
Mind-full means your mind is full of many thoughts that go through your brain all the time.
Mindful means focusing attention on the present, slowing down the thousands of thoughts going on so we can focus on the task at hand.
