In this session, we will explore effective strategies and practical approaches to foster verbal thinking skills in our youngest learners. We will delve into the foundational elements of verbal reasoning and provide insights into how educators can foster and develop these skills in the most managable way. This session will be geared toward K-2 learners.

What did you do at school today? "Nothing." Did you learn anything? "No." Did anything exciting happen? "I don't know." This conversation happens so often in homes daily. But, this child isn't actually saying they didn't do anything or didn't do anything exciting. What they're actually saying is they didn't do anything that was meaningful to them. Join us to learn the anecdote to boredom.
