Curtis Kelly & Caroline Handley
Saturday, June 8, 2019 - 10:00am to 4:00pm

Racking your brain? Fix it on BRAIN DAY!
Summary: In collaboration with the BRAIN SIG, the two Coordinators will give us an all-day workshop on five things every teacher should know about the brain and how to use that information in the classroom. They will discuss discoveries like: no emotion, no learning; the brain as a prediction machine; how the brain is embodied; and so on. You will come up with classroom applications for these ideas.
