Life may never actually have been simple, but hopefully there was a time in your early years when the demands of your daily life were lighter and your responsibilities were fewer. For one afternoon, join us for a relaxed program with low key interaction inspired by a typical primary school schedule. Explore some of the common issues we face through activities that include a motivational opening about how to engage students amidst chaos, story time with a popular podcaster in higher education, rest time for restoration and contemplation in the style of your choice, and play time in which you can join in one of several activities designed to leave you with ideas for your own virtual classroom. View agenda.
Register by February 15, 2021 to opt into having a cubby hole’s worth of materials and swag related to each segment shipped to you for use throughout the virtual program. Registrations after February 15 will be accepted, but only registrations on or before February 15 will be able to receive the materials in the mail.
