July Inspired Teaching Institute (ONLINE)

The end of a difficult school year calls for some serious rejuvenation. Some of the techniques you use to tend to your own social and emotional needs can also be helpful to your students. In this Institute we will explore:

• Improvisation activities that will reconnect you with your joy
• Breathing and mindfulness techniques to promote calm and focus
• Using asset framing to examine the contributions you brought to the 2021-2022 school year and how those can feed your aspirations for the year ahead
• Reflection tools to help you trust your teaching instincts

To get a sense of our approach to relationship building, check out these resources:

• Say Yet
• What Drives You?
• Trusting Our Ability to Make Change
• Building Stamina

PLEASE NOTE: We teach the way people learn best - with our whole selves. This means all of our sessions, both in-person and online are fully interactive. You're not going to do a lot of sitting and listening! Our online sessions are "cameras on" and "mics unmuted" so participants can get to know and interact with one another. We are often physically moving around whatever space we happen to be in but we ask participants to move and interact in the ways that work best for their bodies. Time flies in this environment and we guarantee you'll leave these sessions feeling energized and ready to try something new. We can't wait to learn with you!
