In this class, students will learn basic knowledge about sleep such as why it is important, how much sleep they need, etc. We will also discuss relaxing/positive activities to do before bed vs things that should be avoided around bedtime. I will teach the kids to use their imaginations to relax through progressive muscle relaxation. We will also discuss and make a "worry trash bag" so that students can "throw away" negative thoughts before bed. As a parent, you will then be able to get a better idea of the things concerning your child and can talk with them about what they "threw away." This will help ease any worries or negative thoughts that are interfering with sleep. Discussion and sharing will be encouraged at different points in the class to the extent that time allows.
Learning Goals
-Basic knowledge around good sleep hygiene.
-progressive muscle relaxation for bed time.
-how to "throw away" worries.

Supply List
**A paper sack (lunch size is fine) to make the "trash bag" and whatever decorating supplies your child would like.** Following the class, I will post a reminder sheet for the progressive muscle relaxation in the classroom. I will also post a link to pre-bed activities that parents and children can do together.
