Yes, and...The Power of Improv in the Classroom

Speakers: Nicole Thomas and Heather Schultz

Improv engages the whole student intellectually, socially, and emotionally. It’s an experience that celebrates mistakes, builds confidence, rewards risk-taking, and shapes leaders. Improv is a dynamic way to nourish and implement the skills children need for the future. It creates problem solvers, communicators, collaborators and flexible thinkers. Join us for this active, motivating workshop and discover the benefits of riding a unicorn, while growling like a bear and avoiding flying popsicles.
