Preschool Team PBIS Training
The preschool team attended Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) training in the month of January and February. Through this training, the preschool team has deepened their understanding of ACEs (adverse childhood experiences), ways to build positive relationships with all children and create an environment that supports all children. The team was able to participate in activities that re-frame thinking when it comes to challenging behaviors, understanding that behavior is a form of communication. They also had time to collaborate and set goals to implement the new learning in the classroom by creating more visuals, adjusting room layout and revisiting the schedule.
Seed Soiree
Bee Keeping Training
Ed St John, of Solon, came to GC-B on Saturday, February 22nd to inform the 21 attendees about background information for beekeeping. It was a "buzzy" day, full of information, and learning. Kelsey typed up some notes here, if you have other things to add, please email kwigans@gcb.k12.ia.us.
