Abstract

Whether or not devices are encouraged in your school, teaching students how to relate to peers and adults using whole body listening in a face to face environment is essential. As we prepare our students for the world, teaching soft skills is of utmost importance. Participants will learn how to create exercises which allow for positive human interaction using “gamification” and theater. You will leave with ideas to boost confidence and communication skills.

Description

Attendees will be active participants in social skill games, which they can adapt and take back to their schools. Participants will learn theatrical techniques to ease anxiety and boost confidence levels of students regarding speaking in class. Sample activities and their directions will be given to all in attendance.
