Engaging and Empowering Educators with Practical Implementation
It can be a tremendous challenge to ensure that you are meeting the needs of every student in your classroom, school, or district.
At Growing Minds Consulting, we empower educators to reach and teach all learners. Using the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) in applying a systemic and practical approach to instructional planning, we ensure learning environments and materials are intentionally inclusive and that success is attainable across the full spectrum of developmental stages of school-age growing minds.
Participants leave our workshops reinvigorated and motivated to implement learned strategies.
So how do we do that? We provide workshops (both virtual and face to face) as well as consultation services. All of our workshops bridge the research and application gap by bringing research to life with engaging, practical, and easy to implement strategies. Customized sessions are also available to meet the need of your target audience, whether that is district staff, school administrators or educators.
