Professional Learning
This session will detail how to develop a safe space in both the physical structure and environment. It will assist the participant in creating a place where students can feel confident that they will not be exposed to harassment, criticism or any other emotional or physical harm.
Interactive learning increases a students’ attention two to three times. This session will explore the use of data to guide instruction and interactive activities/resources to increase student learning, making sit and get a thing of the past.
Healthful Living is guided by multiple State Board Policies and Legislation. The session will review all, with an emphasis on their implementation in the classroom, to provide both best practice and safety for students.
Effective instruction is built on the NC Essential Standards. In part 2 of our Standards Webinar series, our focus will be Physical Education.

Description:
Just as it takes a whole village to raise a child, it takes the whole school to educate a child. To do that best, we must collaborate to promote the success of the whole child. The Healthful Living Essential Standards and Guidance Essential Standards share similar objectives and support these collaborative opportunities while also accomplishing implementation of both sets of standards. In this session, we will look at some of the great existing opportunities for health educators and school counselors to effectively partner for the benefit of students and share examples and resources to support you in that teamwork.

While knowledge is power, knowledge in and of itself doesn’t change behavior. A health class that develops students’ skills will influence health-related behaviors long after the class ends. The skills-based approach to teaching health shifts the emphasis from primarily knowledge acquisition to skill acquisition. In this session, we will explore the skills-based approach so that students can apply their knowledge to live healthier lives.
