Full Session Description
*This is a work in progress, but will be completed before the conference.
This class is intended to motivate teachers in learning to enter their classrooms with a positive attitude. Participants will learn how when they have a "healthy" attitude their children can be healthy as a whole. Explore techniques that help teachers learn how to respond instead of react.
Participants will be given the opportunity to take the phrase "You is kind, You is smart, You is important" and change it to something they can say to keep them motivated. Participants will also be given the opportunity to find an inspiration quote, song, or statement that reminds them to stay positive with and for their children.
