Hi there,

Congrats! You made it to the break. Commence mirth-making and spending time with those you love!

As previously stated, I’m taking the holiday off as well. Our normal emails will resume on January 1st.

But don’t worry, I’ve still got something substantive for you. The promised second installment of our valuable Semesterly PD Module drop!

For over three years, my company Cogent Solutions has been making top-notch, editable professional development for busy administrators. The goal of each module is to save you 40-60 hours of your summer, holiday, and personal time that is so often devoted to creating PD for your staff.

The features of our PD modules are many, but here are a few of my favorites:

  • Easy-to-use file formats (PDF, Word and PowerPoint)

  • Professionally-designed slides

  • Professionally copy-edited presenter notes

  • Research-backed content

  • Includes an emailable format (Tired of hearing the “this could’ve been an email” complaint?)

  • 100% editable

Each module contains enough material for 1-3 hours of professional development training. And this semester, paid subscribers are getting one of our most popular modules included in their annual subscription. (I sent the initial module back in October. Paid subscribers can check it out anytime).

That’s right, you can click over to our website right now and purchasee the module for $469. OR, if you’re a $60 annual subscriber, you can use the link below and downloand it immediately as part of your subscription. You’ll also be able to download the Classroom Management: Building Classroom Structure that we shared with subscribers in October. Simply click on the Semesterly PD Module - Semester One email and grab the download code. That’s over $900 of PD for $60!

Classroom Management: Building Resilient Relationships

One of the most critical skills in education is the ability to build relationships with all students, especially those who may be at risk of losing connection to school. Research has shown that healthy relationships with teachers insulates students against life-altering threats, like violence and substance abuse.

In Building Resilient Relationships, we talk about the negative long-term impacts of exclusionary practices, we examine how and why teachers should share power responsibly with students, and we discuss strategies for entire classes to develop healthy relationships. We then go really dig deep and examine the impacts of trauma and student life experiences before reviewing one-on-one strategies to use with students. Finally, we offer up our Top 10 Practices that will help teachers fine-tune their new relationship-building skills.

Classroom Management: Building Resilient Relationships

Concepts covered include:

  • The Case for Relationship

  • Teacher-Student Disposition

  • The Impacts of Exclusionary Practices

  • Sharing Power Responsibly

  • Whole-Class Strategies

  • Trauma-Informed Approach

  • Barriers to Student-Teacher Relationships

  • 1:1 Strategies

  • Preserving Relationships

    and more!
