Studying With Joyful Intention – will be found in a new book called MINDFUL THOUGHTS FOR STUDENTS which I received in exchange for this review.
I would like to share a new addition to our Back to School Gift Guide Mindful Thoughts for Students which will allow us to Nurture your mind, and allow us to flourish in life.
Each morning before we begin school Charlie and I will read a couple pages inside MINDFUL THOUGHTS FOR STUDENTS giving Charlie time to wake up before we begin school work.
Then in Charlie’s Reading Journal he will explain what we read and how it fits Charlie or our family and why. Then Charlie will create a piece of Art based on the book.
I like how when I was reading through MINDFUL THOUGHTS FOR STUDENTS I found Spelling words for Charlie as well as information I can share with my nieces and nephews before they begin school.
I love how they touch on technology and switching it off because in our home Charlie allows it to take over every aspect of his life and we need to stop that habit now.
There is a section on connecting with teachers and even though I am Charlies teachers there is times we attend classes and this will help Charlie become more comfortable when meeting new people and working with them.
If your looking for the perfect book to prepare our students from Elementary to College then you will want to check out Mindful Thoughts for Students which will fit inside a backpack or purse and even on our desk not taking up a lot of space.

This book is great for students moving to a new grade level.
Studying can be a stressful and anxious process, with deadlines and a focus on results taking away from the pleasure of learning.
