Preparing the Environment: a look at control and freedom in the classroom Deb Norris

Special Topics: Afterschool ,
Sponsor: Anna Howes
Instructor: Anna Howes Gebhardt

What makes a good learning environment? In this workshop we will take both a big picture view at learning environments and get close up to the small details of the classroom and teacher. Taking the perspective that children learn best when they feel safe, seen, and heard, we will look at how to set up learning through preparing the physical environment, the emotional environment, and the energetic environment (the “vibe" of the classroom). Participants will learn and practice developmentally effective hands-on tools for creating learning environments that promote regulation, safety, joy, and creativity. Participants will leave with drafted classroom design ideas and easy to implement mindfulness practices.
