Head Start Minds in Motion: A Virtual Book Study on Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and the Brain

Complete Attendance not available before workshop starts.

Join us for a powerful and practical book study centered on Social Emotional Learning and the Brain by Marilee Sprenger — a valuable resource for Head Start educators looking to deepen their understanding of how to nurture the whole child. This engaging book connects the science of the brain with everyday classroom strategies, offering a thoughtful look at how social and emotional learning (SEL) directly supports academic achievement and student well-being.
This book study will offer reflective discussions, practical takeaways, and opportunities for teachers to implement what they learn right away. Whether you're new to SEL or looking to deepen your practice, this experience will empower you to help every child in your care grow emotionally, socially, and cognitively.

Incentives & Participation Requirements:
All participants will receive a copy of Social Emotional Learning and the Brain by Marilee Sprenger, along with a stipend for their full participation in the book study. To be eligible for the stipend, participants must attend all four Zoom sessions.

Session Schedule:
Fridays in June | 10:00–11:00 AM
(Weekly Zoom meetings: June 6, 13, 20, and 27)
