Join Us For a Summer Planning Session!
From the comfort of the couch, or the pool, or the beach.
This summer, we’re inviting teachers to come together for a virtual planning session designed to help you begin the school year with clarity, inspiration, and connection.
We’ll be offering the workshop on two different dates so you can choose what works best for you!
During our time together, we’ll help you create the foundation for a classroom where both children and teachers can thrive: a space rooted in meaningful routines, joyful learning, and authentic engagement. Together, we’ll explore ways to design a child-centered classroom environment, develop thoughtful structures that support flow throughout the day, and plan for rich, content-driven inquiry.
You’ll leave with:
• A blueprint and fresh ideas for creating a child-centered classroom environment for PreK–2nd grade.
• A menu of routines and structures to help your year begin with connection and clarity.
• A guide to meaningful first invitations for centers.
• A content-focused integrated birds study designed to spark curiosity and inquiry.
More than anything, we hope this workshop helps you plans for a year where learning feels purposeful, connected, and joyful for both you and your students. You’ll also have the opportunity to connect with a community of educators who are passionate about creating meaningful experiences for children.
The workshop is $149, and we gladly accept purchase orders.
Have questions? Simply reply to this email. We’d love to hear from you.
