Second grade teacher and Mindfulness Club leader Erin Marrazzo at Edith L. Slocum Elementary School held a special assembly to introduce students to her recently published book, “Everyday Mindful Mantras for Minis.” After the read aloud, Mrs. Marrazzo practiced yoga and mindfulness with the students.

Mrs. Marrazzo’s book, “Everyday Mindful Mantras for Minis” gives children the mantras they need to believe in themselves and cope with the challenges they face in their lives. Using these mantras can empower kids to shape their own emotional health and create a positive future.

After the assembly, Mrs. Marrazzo was surprised by teacher Dawn Dluginski with a large painting of the book’s cover, hand-drawn and painted by teacher Sheila Higgins and various other teachers at Slocum. The painting will be hung in the hallway outside of the Slocum library.

Then, in the afternoon, the school held a book signing, giving students the opportunity to get their books personally autographed by Mrs. Marrazzo!
