Thanks very much for the feedback, James. Mindfulness is a fascinating idea and I can see its great value to students. I wonder if it is implied in the attribute “Reflective”? As you say, it’s not explicit. You’ve inspired me to read more! Love to hear how you build this habit of mind into your class practice. Thanks for the comment.

I like resilience too, but am even a bigger proponent of awareness. Awareness of yourself, others and the world around you. It stems from mindfulness and social emotional learning. Mindfulness is a big part of my day as well as my G5 students’ day. I’m a believer and hope that one day the IB places more emphasis on it. The MYP is committed so hopefully it will grow from within. It is a trait that must be lived, like the LP.
Cheers
James
