SUMMARY:Restorative Circles: A Two-Day In-Person Summer Institute for Building Connection\, Voice\, and Community presented by Melanie Anderson / Slice of Mindfulness - 8:30-2:30pm
DESCRIPTION:Educators need practical ways to build respect\, strengthen classroom community\, and respond to student behavior without relying on gimmicks\, rewards\, or compliance-driven systems. This two-day in-person summer institute helps educators understand how restorative circles can be used to create more connected\, respectful\, and emotionally safe learning environments. Beginning with mindfulness and mindful communication as the foundation\, participants learn how to facilitate circles with clarity and confidence using agreements\, talking pieces\, rounds\, and low-\, medium-\, and high-risk questions that can be adapted across grade levels and settings. This is an in-depth\, implementation-focused learning experience designed for real classrooms. Participants gain practical tools they can begin using right away to support authentic student voice\, strengthen relationships\, and build a classroom culture rooted in trust\, authenticity\, and mutual respect. The institute also supports educators in creating more equitable spaces that elevate voice\, access\, and participation for all learners\, including English Language Learners\, students with disabilities\, and neurodivergent learners. Participants will learn not only how to lead restorative circles\, but also what to do when a circle goes ‘sideways’ and how to respond in ways that preserve safety\, dignity\, and connection. Eligible for 12 hours CTLE credit. Can use 2 Consortium seats. If district pays\, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.\nFlyer: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1y6j8NnfD909UpW_vMk2qZo5qHg-PhCFX/view?usp=sharing\nRegistration: https://www.mylearningplan.com/WebReg/ActivityProfile.asp?D=13208&I=5385300
