Lessons Learned Post-Covid and Flipping the Switch Back to Normalcy
1 hr
About
This session explores the human component of covid-recovery for schools and re-acclimation for both the adults and students.
Covid changed a lot. What changes will remain and what will return to the way it was before? How can teachers and administrators set healthy boundaries with students and parents after many of those boundaries got blurred during the transition to distance learning? How do we harness the future with renewed optimism and grace?
This will be a powerful session that celebrates the courage of every participant and offers an exciting blueprint of action for the coming school year.
Communications strategies and techniques for getting back to normal with confidence and grace
SEL tips for teachers and principals
Supporting the well-being of teachers
What we learned about ourselves and the school during the Covid crisis, and now, looking back at how far we've come, what we need to know moving forward
Expectation management of parents and students, and also managing our own expectations
