I love encouraging my students to take mental and physical breaks when they are working on a tricky new skill. Its a good chance to ask them about their favorite thing about the week. Or let them exspress something on their mind.
It is also a great way to get some good dopamine to the brain and get good smiles going, to prevent frustration and burnout.
So of course I have a puppy who loves to help with this.
This was an online kiddo who hasnt seen the puppy in person and loved it.
P.s. I swear I do smile a lot more than I did here. 😆
We were both very focused!
