Emotional Health in Our Schools
Emotional Health in Our Schools
Children and youth are more anxious, aggressive, and shut down than ever. We were seeing these shifts before COVID 19 and now it is only intensified. Faced with this epidemic of emotional health crises and behavioural problems, kids are struggling and educators are exhausted.
Based on her best-selling book, "Reclaiming Our Students: Why Children Are More Anxious, Aggressive, and Shutdown than Ever – and What We Can Do About It", this workshop will support educators with relationship-based strategies for how to build, nurture, and protect the student-teacher relationship, even with the most prickly, difficult students. We will address why children are displaying more challenging behaviours than ever and practical strategies we can use to support our students (and us!) to thrive.
We'll explore the emotions that drive aggression and anxiety, and what we can do to address these issues at their root. We'll delve into what wires the brain for resilience and how we can jump off the exhausting hamster wheel of trying to fix behaviours over and over again - and instead look at how we can work towards lasting change.
Join Hannah for an engaging and powerful session that will re-energize you as an educator and shed light on the vital importance of your caring leadership and why it is needed now, more than ever.
