The Art of Asking Good Questions
Lana Gardner
Together, participants will explore the art of asking good questions and why they are important. Thoughtful questions can help shift the cognitive load from the leader to the learner. Often, we jump to solving problems for others instead of allowing/empowering them to purposefully think through and identify possible solutions of their own. Participants will gain simple strategies and practice thoughtful questions as a refresher or 1st step to intentional support through inquiry.

Be REAL: Body Confident Schools
Denise Hamburger
Adolescent body dissatisfaction has reached critical levels in today’s "Kardashian Culture." The recent increase in students’ visual social media – like Instagram and TikTok - is in large part responsible for 75% of girls and almost 50% of boys feeling not good enough about how they look. Body dissatisfaction directly affects adolescent mental health. Research links body dissatisfaction to eating disorders, low self-esteem, depression, isolation, substance abuse, and suicidal thoughts. It interferes with school performance as well as students’ ability to achieve their full potential in other areas of their lives.
Content helpful to those who work with 5th graders and older
