Description

Susan inspires educators with her dynamic, energetic presentations. She reveals the "secret code" that facilitates learning how to read and will help teachers make simple changes in the way they present new material that will have a radical impact in all areas of student learning. Sue will work with you to discuss how to best meet the needs of your early childhood and elementary school staff.

Objectives

The "Young at Art® Staff Development Workshop" concentrates on how the earliest natural, developmental activities contribute to and enhance learning. We also discuss what kinds of common, adult-directed projects have the unintentional affect of interfering with student learning.
