What is Quiet time?

Quiet happens 3 times in the mornings.

Quiet time helps us be inside our own bubble or zone,

You can do anything you want that is legal. You can sleep,

write, and draw. It is a place where it’s just you.

1. What things do you do at quiet time?

For me I mostly do school work when I’m behind or trying to do extra. But when I am done everything I do anime art or just a drawing of something in my classroom. Other than me my classmates like to sleep or even write a story. Some just sit there and do nothing.

2. What do you like or don’t like in quiet time? Why?

In quiet time I like how you can be in your own space and do anything you want without anyone interrupting or trying to stop you.

  1. What do you feel during Quiet Time?

I feel safe,alone(in a good way). I feel calm and more productive when there is silent. I also feel more like I notice more around me than just looking at something and thinking of for a second.

It is nice that I get some quiet most of the time. What do you notice about quiet time? I notice that a lot of people enjoy drawing during quiet time. I guess we have some good artists in this class. What does quiet time mean?  Quiet time means enjoyment and relaxation. What surprised you? What surprised me is how many things we can do/ how many choices we have. There are so many things we can during quiet time.Do you have any questions? Yes I do have a question.

My Thoughts on Quiet Time

One comment

Three days out of the five that are spent in school per week, my class does Quiet Time. Quite Time is a fifteen minute block of time daily that we spend doing whatever we like, quietly. It is a time when you are free to do whatever you want, and in my case it really helps to relieve stress.

During Quiet Time, I like to draw simple sketches on paper, or sometimes I like to read or do unfinished schoolwork. Other times I use the time to just collect my thoughts, and calm down and relax, or I use the time given to me efficiently by doing work that is assigned to me.

Something I like about Quiet Time is that it gives me a bit of time to focus just on myself, and I am allowed to do whatever I want to do during that time. I also like it because it makes me feel more calm, and sometimes I feel like some time in my own personal bubble is just what I need. Even though Quiet Time is only fifteen minutes long, that small amount of time is a much appreciated snippet of my day.

When Quiet Time is in effect, I feel calm, collected and content. I like having the freedom to do whatever I want. I can draw, I can read, I can sit there just looking into space with my thoughts miles and miles away. My only restrictions are that I cannot disturb/interact with others, and that I have to be quiet. To be honest, I quite like that we have to stay in our personal bubbles, because although I don’t like to be alone, sometimes I enjoy having some time to myself, without other people.

I notice that Quiet Time greatly improves my mood throughout the day, since stress is definitely not fun for me, and Quiet Time helps me get rid of some of it. Having a little bit of time to quietly reflect on myself can go a long way with improving my mood!

Overall, Quiet Time is a time of the day that I value and enjoy taking part in. I wish that we got to do it five days out of five. I would recommend it to anyone, and I really enjoy taking part in it.

Quiet Time!

To begin, I think Quiet Time is a really valuable addition to our class schedule. It gives us a chance to relax and relieve stress and, overall feel more improved as a person.

Next, I also think Quiet time is great because, we aren’t forced to do one thing. We are instructed to think about what “we” want to do for Quiet Time. I really think that’s the perfect way to do this because, it gives us the power to understand what helps us relieve stress or makes us feel delighted.

Also, during Quiet Time I will usually either do some work, or draw and, even sleep. The possibilities are endless!

Furthermore, the music is very peaceful I recommend a listen  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J65GxJ2v9Wg

To conclude, I honestly think Quiet Time is just such a powerful addition to our classroom. And I recommend it anyone and everyone who comes across this blog.

Thanks for reading!
