Classroom Zen offers several tools to create a calming, relaxing atmosphere in the classroom. Choose from the categories of noise management, breathing, brain breaks, and typing practice. Begin your day with the Morning Warm-up with Mio, a daily show that lets classes choose topics to get your day off on a good note. Topics include the joke of the day, the wonders of science, the math minute, and more. Noise management tools include a noise monitor from Sleepy Mio and relaxing mountain and desert backgrounds that monitor classroom noise. Additional resources include breathing and mindfulness techniques and quick brain-break activities.

In the Classroom
Although the activities on this site are pretty basic, they offer many benefits as tools for classroom teachers. Include the Morning Warm-up with Mio to engage them as they prepare and to set a welcoming learning atmosphere, and customize the content for your grade level by selecting from the grade-band offerings and topic choices. All students will enjoy the quick brain break activities that encourage participation. Share daily breathing and mindfulness techniques on students' computers so they can access them during stressful or anxious periods. Share this site and others on a Wakelet collection, reviewed here with parents to use at home.
