Book ID/图书代码： 02153023C00004
English Summary/英文概要： Due to our fast-paced society, the impact of social media, and the threat of climate change, today’s children are facing challenges unique to their generation. Incorporating mindfulness as part of their curriculum―whether in a classroom or a home school setting―teaches invaluable life skills that children can apply to all aspects of learning, and later, through all stages of life.
Psychologist Amoneeta Beckstein and mindfulness educator and practitioner Jana York have pooled their knowledge and experience and teamed up to compile an eight-week curriculum with empirically-based exercises for integrating mindfulness in classrooms, as well as discussion questions for enhancing critical thinking skills.
The authors use vowels (including Y for “You”) as a mnemonic device, with each vowel representing a lesson that helps students develop present-moment awareness: Attention, Experience, Investigate, Observe, and Understand. Forty engaging activities and games help children put into practice the concepts they learned. Teaching Mindfulness provides the essential core principles of mindfulness education and enriches both the teaching and learning experience.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 由于我们受快节奏的社会、社交媒体的影响和气候变化的威胁，今天的儿童面临着他们这一代人特有的挑战。将正念作为课程的一部分，无论是在课堂上还是在家庭学校环境中，都能传授宝贵的生活技能，孩子们可以将其应用于学习的各个方面，并在以后的生活的各个阶段得以提升。
心理学家阿莫尼塔•贝克斯坦和正念教育家兼实践者乔娜•约克汇集了他们的知识和经验，合作编写了一份为期八周的课程，其中包括基于经验的练习，用于将正念融入课堂，以及讨论问题，以提高批判性思维技能。
作者使用元音（包括“你”的Y）作为助记符，每个元音代表一个帮助学生培养当下意识的课程：注意力、体验、调查、观察和理解。书中的四十项引人入胜的活动和游戏帮助孩子们将学到的概念付诸实践。《正念教学》提供了正念教育的基本核心原则，丰富了教学和学习经验。(ZY)
