Synopsis

Nonfiction. Education. CREATING THE PEACEABLE CLASSROOM is intended to assist the community of teachers, paraprofessionals, counselors, psychologists, school nurses, administrators, students, and parents, to create calm and useful energy within themselves and their environment. "Sandy offers concrete ideas for creating a peaceful learning environment. What a gift it would be for a child to be taught within an environment of such peaceful attention. What a gift for the world as well—creating space one child at a time"—Stephanie Rutt, Director of the Tree of Life Yoga Studio, School for Yoga and Sacred Living and the Gifts of Grace Foundation.
