Whole-Child Design Series – North State Cohort

As we persevere through the pandemic and all of the disruption and stress it has caused, there is a lot of talk about focusing on the “whole-child.” But what does this mean in practice? What do educators need to do differently? What are the implications for schools and districts?

Turnaround for Children – in partnership with the Butte County Office of Education and the California Collaborative for Educational Excellence – invites you to find the answers through a free four-session series on Whole-Child Design. The series will introduce practical tools, structures and systems for a whole-child approach that is grounded in the science of learning and development and rooted in equity. Participants will have time to explore how these resources fit within their own classroom, school or district context.

What:

The set of free resources includes four 90-minute workshops covering the following content:

• The Science of Learning and Development
• Developmental Relationships
• Supportive Environments
• Integrated Knowledge, Skill and Mindset Development
• Two hours of free consulting support per district team

When:

Thursday afternoons, 3:15 to 4:45 PM

• February 17, 2022

Who:

Priority for this series will be given to people participating in school and district teams from Northern CA. Teams might include representatives from curriculum and instruction, student support services, expanded learning, school leadership and/or teaching.
