Year 4 Why is mindfulness important?

This week we have been designing mindfulness timers using BBC Microbits. Using net templates, we designed the base for the timer, then learned how to use loop programming to set the Microbit with an LED countdown, before putting them together to use for mindful activities. As we approach the end of this term, we have many things still to do. Taking time out to breathe, colour and listen to music helps us to stay focussed when we need to. This is an important lesson for us all to learn as we move forward in our learning.
