Transitions The MindUP Core Practice works beautifully during transition times. With your guidance and thoughtful attention, you can accustom your children to respond to a simple reminder at which they habitually turn to the Core Practices to center themselves and prepare to move easily—even eagerly and joyfully—to the next classroom activity. “Our classroom transition times are some of the most important routines of our day….Our days are full, our curriculum is rich, and we have so much to do together! The tighter our transitions, the more time we will have for instruction” (Allyn, 2010)!
