Dec 9, 2018 at 19:35 comment added Vladimir Kalitvianski Your formula (3) is wrong: the Hamiltonian is not a sum of a vector and a scalar. Formula (5) can only be valid for very-high-spin (nearly classical) particles; for an electron there may be only two possible projections of the spin on the magnetic field.

Apr 24, 2017 at 22:20 comment added Emilio Pisanty @Fururologist Sure, you can make up an ad-hoc classical description for the spin. Now where in classical or non-relativistic quantum mechanics are you going to get the corresponding hamiltonian?
Apr 24, 2017 at 21:56 comment added Futurologist @tbt I think the canonical coordinates here are $(x,p,\sigma) \in T^*\mathbb{R}^3 \times so^*(3) = T^*\mathbb{R}^3 \times su^*(2)$. The Poisson structure is the combination of the canonical symplectic structure on the cotangent bundle $ T^*\mathbb{R}^3$ plus the Lie-Poisson structure on the dual of the Lie algebra $so(3) \cong su(3)$.

Apr 24, 2017 at 18:24 comment added tbt as far as I know, you cannot truly derive it from the classical non-relativistic model. The presence of the $\vec B \cdot \vec \sigma$ term is a quantum effect. You will surely recognize that from the classical point of view you're missing something: how should $\vec s$ be expressed in terms of the canonical coordinates $p,q$ ? To get that term, one has to consider the hamiltonian of the Dirac spinor in presence of an electromagnetic potential. Then by taking the non-relativistic limit one gets a term $\sim \vec B \cdot \vec \sigma$.

Added more clarity to the question at hand.
