Virtual ParentCamp! Week 7 – Students Join us this week, Practices to Help Kids Self-Regulate!, Spanish, PBL & Equity Sessions Continue and Build! ©ParentCamp, 2019, All Rights Reserved
We have a very special treat this week. The Prichard Committee for Academic Excellence Student Voice Team will be joining us this week! The Spanish collaborative room was on fire last week and will continue this week. Deeper Learning Hub is wrapping up a three part series this week with Student Exhibition Night, the Designing for Equity room continues to collaborate and build into each other (they always welcome new members each week!) and one of the sessions which has repeatedly been asked for practices which can help kids self-regulate during this difficult time.
Laura’s video highlight for this week:
