SUMMARY:SEL In The Classroom-Cancelled
DESCRIPTION:Join the Central Aroostook Council on Education and Candace Fuller for SEL In The Classroom on Friday\, May 24 at 12:30! \nWhat is SEL: \nSocial and Emotional Learning is a way of incorporating social emotional and behavioral skills into the classroom. This process helps students (and educators) develop communication skills\, practice empathy for others\, set boundaries while achieving goals and develop / understand friendships. \nBenefits of SEL: \nWell-implemented SEL programs can positively affect a students’ success in school. Studies show that SEL skills such as problem solving\, self-regulation\, impulse control\, and empathy can be beneficial in the classroom setting and used to help improve academic studies as well as reducing negative social behaviors. \nIncorporating SEL into the classroom in easy ways: \nIn this training\, educators will be given an opportunity to look at the foundations of SEL. We will discuss how to incorporate SEL in the daily classroom setting using simple\, easy steps without needing to carve time out or their daily academic schedules. Classroom ideas from worksheets\, games\, class meetings\, writing prompts\, team building and goal setting will be introduced. \nThis workshop will help bridge the gap between children’s social\, emotional\, behavioral AND academic needs.

SUMMARY:CACE Day 2023\, with special guest Brandon Fleming
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Presque Isle High School on September 15 for CACE Day 2023-“Elevating our Students\, Elevating our Classrooms\, Elevating our Schools”! \nKeynote Speaker: Brandon Fleming \nBrandon P. Fleming is a renowned speaker\, nationally acclaimed educator\, and author of MISEDUCATED: A Memoir. His triumphant story of struggle\, success\, and service has captured the heart of national media and inspired millions of people around the world. An at-risk youth and college dropout turned award-winning educator\, Fleming is a former debate coach at Harvard University and Founder & CEO of the Veritas School of Social Sciences in Atlanta\, GA.\n\nIn 2017\, Fleming was recruited to become Harvard University’s assistant debate coach at the age of 26.  Fleming soon made history at Harvard as the founder of the first Black pipeline program called the Harvard Debate Council Diversity Project\, which was designed to increase Black enrollment at Harvard’s residential debate program where hundreds of gifted young scholars from over 25 different countries study and compete in an international academic debate competition. \nOver six years\, Fleming has raised millions of dollars to enroll more than 200 students of color into Harvard’s summer debate residency on full scholarship.  But there was one challenge that Fleming faced: How would he take Black youth from mostly under-resourced schools in Atlanta\, who had never been exposed to the rigors of academic debate\, and prepare them in just one year to compete against some of the most elite debaters from across the globe?  Fleming created a transformative curriculum that is designed to build intellectual capacity\, accelerate learning\, and ultimately level the playing field for Black students.  And it did.  For six consecutive years\, since the program’s inception in 2017\, every cohort trained by Fleming has won the international competition as six-time consecutive champions. News of the achievement has gone viral and broke national headlines\, being featured on CNN\, Good Morning America\, the Steve Harvey Show and many more. The organization has gained the financial backing of Fortune 100 companies such as The Coca-Cola Company\, UPS\, Chick-fil-A\, and many more.\n\nFleming’s story represents the transformative power of equity.  The equity model Fleming has built to close performance gaps is one that academic and corporate institutions have highly sought to replicate.  As a renowned speaker\, Fleming has keynoted for international governmental organizations such as the United Nations.  Fleming has spoken at the nation’s most prestigious colleges\, universities\, and K-12 conferences.  Fleming has also keynoted conventions for corporate executives at the nation’s largest brands such as Walmart\, Bank of America\, FedEx\, the Federal Reserve Bank\, and many more.  At the age of 29\, Forbes Magazine named Fleming to the Forbes 30 under 30 list.  In 2020\, The Root Magazine named Fleming one of the top 100 most influential African Americans in the United States.  And in May 2021\, North Carolina Wesleyan College bestowed upon Fleming the honorary Doctor of Humanities degree. \n  \nBreakout Sessions\nClassroom Management Panel: Join Teresa Merritt\, RSU 39 Special Education Teacher\, Brittany Morrison-SAD 1 Grade 4 Teacher and PBIS Coach\, Emily Rosser-RUS 39 Grade 1 Teacher\, and Elizabeth Bouchard-SAD 45 Grades 7-8 Mathematics Teacher for a discussion and Q/A on creative\, tried and tested classroom management tactics. \nAdministration Panel: Join Dr. Jennifer Bourassa-SAD 1 Curriculum Director\, Joel Hall-SAD 32 Principal/Superintendent\, Dr. Kay York-Principal of Central Aroostook High School\, Benjamin Sirois-Superintendent\, SAD 27\, SAD 33\, and Madawaska School Department\, and Megan Stanley-SAD 1 Special Education Director for a discussion and Q/A on what makes successful schools and cutting edge programming tick. \nTeacher Panel: Join Nicholas Blais\, RSU 39 Mathematics Teacher\, Darren West-Easton School Department Social Studies Teacher\, Susan Beaulier-SAD 32 Art Teacher\, and Samantha Swallow-Easton School Department Science Teacher for a discussion and Q/A on what attracted them to the field of education and what keeps them coming back to the classroom every day. \nThe Three Rs of Classroom Behavioral Management: Principled Behavior Consultants: Join us for the “Three Rs of Classroom Behavior Management” workshop\, facilitated by experienced Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and tailored exclusively for educators in public schools.

SUMMARY:Mindbridge Community Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Join the University of Maine at Presque Isle on May 18 from 6pm-8pm for an important community conversation! \nUMPI Community Conversation Description \nWe often think of our society as a place where everyone has the same (or close to the same) opportunity to succeed and thrive. However\, historical patterns of sorting/ranking each other (by race\, religion\, gender\, language\, and orientation) still have powerful effects on how we relate to one another today. Forms of bias and structural inequity negatively impact the health and well-being of marginalized populations and stall our collective ability to thrive. This community conversation will provide an initial introduction to implicit bias and how increasing our awareness and understanding of bias directly relates to advancing greater equity of opportunity\, experience\, and outcomes in our local institutions and communities. Here we invite community members to join Mindbridge Executive Director Laura Ligouri\, in exploring our experience with bias and opportunities to collectively advance opportunities within our communities.  \nAbout Mindbridge \nMindbridge is a nonprofit organization dedicated to transforming the impact of local\, national and international human rights work by integrating psychological and neurobiological applied science. Mindbridge uses neuroscience and psychology to assess the values\, beliefs\, motivations\, and drivers of violence in order to develop more effective interventions and propel change. We partner with government and community-based organizations to co-develop a holistic approach to societal transformation. It is ultimately through our understanding of how the brain gives rise to the mind that we no longer work to simply combat human rights abuses in an endless cycle of violence\, but guide the psyche towards the strengthening of society built upon the tenets of human rights itself. Here neurobiological and psychological sciences propel data-driven intervention and program design\, giving human rights defenders access to the hearts and minds they need to connect to most. For more information visit: www.mindbridgecenter.org  \nAbout Laura Ligouri \nLaura Ligouri is the Executive Director and Founder of Mindbridge. Her interest in the intersection of neuroscience and human rights emerged while at the Saxelab Social Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory at MIT\, where neurobiological research often sought to understand the biological underpinnings of implicit bias\, inter-ethnic social conflict\, violence and conversely collective empowerment and change. Laura’s interests lie at the intersection of how neurobiological processes\, culture and societal influences converge to give rise to and perpetuate bias\, discrimination and violence within and among groups. Laura teaches the Neuropsychology of Social Justice at the University of Southern Maine and is currently spearheading efforts to develop a national guideline for psychologists’ involvement with domestic counterterrorism efforts. Laura will present with the American Psychological Association on public psychology and its role in countering hate at the 2022 Science\, Technology and Human Rights Conference hosted by the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Laura is currently completing her PhD in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in neuropsychological research. \nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:How We Learn: 5 Essential Practices for Successful Learning with Dr. John Almarode
DESCRIPTION:The Central Aroostook Council on Education is proud to present John Almarode and How We Learn: 5 Essential Practices for Successful Learning. \n“I don’t know” and “I don’t remember” are phrases that haunt every classroom teacher and learner. How do we create experiences that lead to better learning for all students so that they will “know” and “remember”? Over the past fifteen years\, the science of learning has provided many insights into how we think. Furthermore\, these promising principles provide a starting point for inspired and passionate teachers to build the capacity in learners to see themselves as their own teachers. This workshop shows you how! The body of research on how we learn provides well established principles and practices that enhance the learning outcomes for each of our students. Moving beyond performance on a test\, this workshop links these essential principles to the everyday instructional decisions you make in your classroom. \nPracticing what we preach\, you will take part in an edge-of-your-seat learning experience that translates these principles to practices across multiple content areas and grade-levels. You will leave with strategies that will make learning stronger for all of your students. \nDr. John Almarode\, a bestselling author\, has worked with schools\, classrooms\, and teachers all over the world. He has presented locally\, nationally\, and internationally on the application of the science of learning to the classroom\, school\, and home environments. He has worked with hundreds of school districts and thousands of teachers in Australia\, Canada\, England\, Saudi Arabia\, Scotland\, South Korea\, and Thailand. \nIn addition to devoting his time to PreK – 12 schools and classrooms\, he is an Associate Professor at James Madison University in the College of Education. In 2015\, John was awarded the inaugural Sarah Miller Luck Endowed Professorship.
