Course Description

 More Details

In each session, we will introduce a new topic and some stories around it with research or evidence and then give you an assignment to try prior to the next session. As the next session begins, we will spend approximately 15 minutes reviewing the lesson from the session before, thirty minutes on the new information, and 15 minutes on the next assignment to implement before our follow-up meeting.

Sessions will be geared Pre-K through 12th grade and examples will be given for implementation if they are different for the grade levels.

Join us 3/18/24. You must register for each session separately.  A Zoom link will be sent to the email address listed on your NWGA RESA profile prior to each session. 

Session Three:
We will teach you how to teach students to control their breathing which can keep the synapses firing in their pre-frontal cortex so they can make good decisions. Society has not modeled well for our students how to control our emotions. It is okay to have emotions; however, it is not okay to let those emotions disrespect self, others, or property. We will teach you how to teach students to calm their brains in an easy step they can complete seated at their own desk. We will also discuss the idea of building an amygdala recalibration center to help normalize getting ourselves together before we speak.

Participants will learn:
What happens to the heartrate during aggression or an amygdala hijack
How to get the heartrate back down to normal levels
When to use this technique at the universal, tier two, and tier three level
