Pick 3! Uplifting Ourselves by Developing Effective Solutions to our Most Impactful Challenges


Workshop J

A career in education has always been uniquely challenging, but the last few years have accelerated the volume and complexity of the challenges that we address in our schools and classrooms.  Come spend two hours tapping into the expertise of the presenter and your fellow participants by identifying specific challenges that are interfering with your schools and classrooms, and outlining action steps and solutions.  We will do this work in an atmosphere that celebrates and acknowledges the valuable work you do every day and by using facilitation techniques that acknowledge the learning diversity represented in all human brains – including adults!

Shannon Needham is a special educator, facilitator, and learning strategist who has taught and coached grades pre-K through 12 in both public and private schools.  She is also a Certified Learning Environment Planner.  Shannon takes great joy in the privilege of working with all people involved in the learning process:  students, families, teachers, administrators, and school staff.
