Workshop for
Every Elementary Educator

Gain a framework and tools to build a strong foundation of Social and Emotional Learning (SEL).

Make Foundational Skills Come Alive in the Classroom

We will review the foundational skills all students need and offer creative ways to make them come alive in the classroom and beyond.

The framework aligns with CASEL and provides a common language for building emotional intelligence, positive communication, and restorative practices in ourselves and our students.
