Enjoyed providing the MH Moment during the Food Services Network @GRRECKY. Focused on self-regulation strategies/tools (they received two), cognitive distraction (love an activity with prizes), co-regulation/rhythm making (finger lights for the win). Amazing participation!

An honor to present twice at #KSCA26. First session discussed responding to crisis, grief and more including natural disasters. I appreciated the questions, discussions after and the compliments after the presentation (even at dinner in the women’s bathroom).

The second presentation, we shared prompts and strategies for using AI (ChatGPT/Gemini, MagicSchool AI, Canva AI & Gemini Notebook) with lesson plans, SEL, behavior, communication, MTSS, etc. We had one shared a social story she had created using what she had learned-LOVE this!

What a wonderful way to spend a Tuesday — co-presenting with Dr. Savannah Denning & Donovan Hatfield in Clinton County Schools. Staff at each school had the opportunity to practice 7 AI tools/platforms. @GRRECKY #AIforEducators

A great way to spend part of a Friday morning is with @GRRECKY’s Food Services Network. It’s been wonderful spending time during their Mental Health Moment this year. Today, we concluded this year with rock painting. So many talented Food Services Directors in our region!

The last four days, I was in Bethesda, Maryland for PREPaRE 1 and 2 back-to-back train-of-trainers. They were long days with lots of information shared and practice presentations but after completing and passing both tests, I am now a trainer for both! @nasponline
