Description:

In this highly interactive session, participants will be given the resources, time, and space to consider meaningful and authentic ways to integrate SEL and UDL practices into their classroom as part of regular practice.  With student anxiety at seemingly an all-time high and all of us, staff and students alike, navigating and moving forward from global trauma, teachers now, more than ever, must be deliberate in creating learning environments that support all students as learners and as humans.  Come ready to engage in SEL-based activities and to collaborate with others as we work to develop more caring, inclusive, and meaningful learning environments. ALL learning is social emotional learning.
