Finding Meaning in the Pandemic – How to Cope with Change and Move Forward in 2020
Due to COVID-19, our world has had to grieve and is continuing to suffer, not only the loss of lives but the world we knew. How can we better recognize and cope with what we’ve lost and then find meaning through the pandemic?
Attendees will gain perspective of their (and their children’s) behaviors and feelings that tie to the stages of grief. We will provide strategies that promote emotional health, even during a pandemic.
Together, we will explore the stages of grieving loss and look at a better framework for why it’s ok, if not essential, to grieve.

Raising Responsible Digital Citizens
Raising Responsible Digital Citizens
With the recent move of school-based learning to a fully online environment, teachers and parents are thinking more seriously about the new “live, work, play” reality of their kid’s lives online. Being a good “digital citizen” is a helpful framework for inviting students to think more deeply about the role technology plays in their life and the lives of those around them. Whether you are talking about gaming, social media use, or doing online homework, being a good digital citizen cuts across all technology boundaries and platforms. This webinar will introduce you to the language of digital citizenship which you can use with your students as well as provide some practical guidance during this unique moment and time in our lives.

Why Is My Child Acting Differently During the Pandemic?
Discovering & Addressing What’s Behind Sudden Behavior Change
Children seek predictability and control. In a time of uncertainty, children may often begin to feel lost and confused. Children do not always verbalize their feelings so they can manifest in a variety of behaviors or moods. This webinar seeks to equip parents with insights and tools to decode and understand behaviors, as well as help our children cope with the reality of our world and support the uncharted emotions they are navigating.
