​This virtual workshop will provide tools and strategies, rooted in evidence-based psychological science, to help educators respond to bias in values-based ways. We will examine how to support all who are involved in a bias incident—including those targeted, those who committed the act, and the rest of the community—so that everyone can move forward.

In this online intensive, educators will learn more about the current mental health climate and how this widespread epidemic is affecting young people. During this workshop, educators will develop strategies, curricular guidelines, and pedagogical approaches to address how physical health and mental health intersect in classrooms.

This interactive 1-day workshop is designed to equip Grades K-5 educators with the insights and resources needed to support and enhance the development of executive function (EF) skills in their students. By integrating these skills into the classroom curriculum, teachers will help improve overall academic performance and promote positive classroom behaviors.

In this interactive 1-day workshop, learn to define the different EF skills and understand their impact on the brain’s ability to be in an optimal state for learning. Discover why it is important to add the teaching of EF skills alongside your academic curriculum. Discuss and develop a scope and sequence for front-loading the explicit instruction of these skills during the first few months of the school year.
