Family Workshop on Learning
2023-11-14 18:00 - 19:30 | Tayvallich Primary School or Google Meet
Please join us for a session on how learning works and how we can support our children to learn both in school and at home and make the most of their amazing brains. We will look at memory, the brain, retrieval practice and exactly what helps (or doesn’t help) different brains to learn. The session will be fun and informative and there will be refreshments. Mrs Carter will lead the session with input from others with expertise in the topic.
There is no homework to be done in advance (!) but if you were able to watch (or re-watch) the film “Inside Out” as preparation for the part of the workshop on learning, memory and emotions, that would be fantastic.
