The Michigan State Police, Office of School Safety put on a great 2 day School Safety Academy! Topics included: Comprehensive school safety, behavioral threat assessment best practices, understanding the developing brain, and standard reunification methods.
I had such a blast on Monday reading to some of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade classes at Alma Hillcrest School for March's Reading Month! I shared with the students what it's like being a Physical Education teacher and coach. We discussed the positive impacts of what reading and physical activity can have on your body and more importantly, your brain.
Thank you to the teachers for letting me join your classrooms and speak with your students!
