MENTAL PICTURE FOR THE REST PERIODS

With palms over the closed eyes and elbows resting comfortably on a cushion or a table, the child remember the pendulum of a clock as it swings rhythmically side to side. He turns his head slightly back and as if pointing his nose at the pendulum. After such swings, he points his nose tip to the face of the and remembers the numbers, saying each aloud travels, in imagination, about the clock's face. he may repeat in reverse, counting the numbers backward. Then he swings with the pendulum 20 times again, the rest period is over, the eyes refreshed, the optic nerve is stimulated and the lesson may be resumed.
