We all want our students to feel safe, collaborate well with others, feel ownership for their learning, and be joyfully engaged in their work. Nevertheless, many teachers end up using language patterns that undermine these goals. What teachers say to students - when they praise or discipline, give directions or ask questions, and introduce concepts or share stories - affects student learning and behavior. In his book What We Say and How We Say It Matter, Mike Anderson digs into the nuances of language in the classroom. This book study will help teachers examine their language habits and intentionally improve their classroom practice so their language matches and supports their goals.

Location: Asynchronous & Synchronous (Asynchronous & Synchronous, NY)

Audience: K12 Teachers, Special Education Teachers, Counselors

Dates: 1/14/2025 to 2/4/2025

The course starts with practical examples of how our minds fool us into positions of powerlessness and techniques that tap into our natural resourcefulness. The course progresses through a framework for understanding how our minds can rapidly make decisions, but also how those quick reactions often lead us into flight, fight, or freeze mindsets, whereas ideally we would think critically, innovate, and collaborate. We then learn techniques to reset our minds to consciously tap into executive function, critical thinking, and perseverance, for ourselves and to develop those habits of mind for others, such as students, peers, coworkers, and family.

These are the habits of mind that the course develops:
Motivation
Grit and perseverance
Creative and critical thinking
Executive function and self-regulation
Social emotional intelligence
Constructive vs destructive states of mind

The course consists of 6 two-hour live sessions (12 hours of seat time), plus there are practice and reflection exercises after each session (5 hours of practice over the course of three weeks), and each person will create a lesson or lesson plan (3 hours to create the lesson) for a total of 20 hours.
