Professional Development Workshop - Eric Johnson
Cooperation is one of the most important skills teachers emphasize to build community, include students with a diverse range of abilities and needs, and prepare them for the world of work. In this workshop, explore how to build cooperative team work by learning to lead classroom-tested, playful, creative movement activities that teach students to take turns, listen carefully, read a partner’s non-verbal cues, and speak in response. Throughout the workshop observe the modeling of an easy, repeatable classroom management system, which creates a calm, cooperative environment for learning.
Eric Johnson is the dance specialist for twelve Seattle public and private schools and a leader of professional development workshops for educators nationally and internationally. Since 1985, he has traveled to sites from Florida to Alaska sharing strategies with teachers for lesson planning, assessment, classroom management, and integration of movement and dance into the classroom.
