Please reach out to [email protected] with any questions. Breakfast will be provided for all participants.

This training will offer Central Texas teachers an opportunity to become familiar with a few of the core concepts of the Neurosequential Model that are based in brain science. Through a combination of discussion, experiential activity, and group think, teachers will explore these concepts and begin to relate them to their learning environment and the students they serve to create a more responsive classroom environment and widen the learning capacity of their students.

Objectives:

• Learn about the Neurosequential Network and a few core concepts of NME -Better understand ourselves as educators and the students we engage with in the learning environment
