Teaching and learning look a little different this year. Please remember to breathe. ❤️Posted @withregram • @narwhalsandwaterfalls We’ve heard a lot of you saying that your classes are going back to virtual. It can be challenging to incorporate SEL practices in a virtual space-especially in elementary music! Sometimes it’s best to keep it simple by starting the class with these 3 elements:
👉Greeting
.
👉Sharing
.
👉Breathing
.
.
Teachers, thank you for all you’re doing right now. You are making such a positive impact on your students.
.
.
And thank you @momentousinstitute for your work & helpful posts!

We love celebrating youth art ❤️Check out the gallery now! Posted @withregram • @hartfordfoundation For teenagers, this year of remote learning, physical distancing and social unrest has been particularly disorienting. We wanted to hear from them, so in September, we called on teens from across our region to submit creative work that captures their thoughts and emotions in this time of pandemic and protest. ⠀
