How to Help Students Manage their Anxiety and Energy Levels so They Can Learn
Part of the LearningRevolution.com 'Survive and Thrive!' Series
OVERVIEW:
Are you noticing that more and more students are having difficulty focussing on learning due to heightened brain states (anxiety) AND/OR low brain states (mental/physical exhaustion)?
Teachers, you know how important it is to build connections and trust with students before learning can take place. But what next? How do we help our students focus on learning when their brains are in fight, flight, or freeze modes?
Parents, you know your child is capable of learning, but getting them to focus can be a challenge. Sometimes your child has too much energy. Sometimes they don’t have enough. How can we help our children get their brain into optimal learning mode?
In this webinar, Kara Guiff, a veteran educator, will take you through practical, easily implemented strategies to help you help your students regulate the state of their brains so they are ready to learn. You just might find some of these strategies work for you too!
You will learn:
- What the neuro arousal continuum is and how to recognize when someone is too high or too low on that continuum
- Strategies to help students in a heightened state of neuro arousal come back to the middle (optimal for learning)
- Strategies to help students on the low end of the continuum get back to the middle
- Strategies to help students maintain regulation of their brain state
- How co-regulation can be the the key to everything
