From the site:
"The Hawn Foundation, in collaboration with neuroscientists, behavioral psychologists, educators, and leading researchers in the field of social and emotional learning, has developed MindUP™, a comprehensive classroom-based program for children in grades K-7.
MindUP™ has four main goals:
• to foster mindful focused awareness;
• to increase positive human qualities, such as empathy, perspective-taking, helpfulness and kindness;
• to increase optimism and well-being;
• to foster a cohesive, caring classroom climate that enhances learning."
