Stop doing it all and start multiplying your impact. True sustainable leadership comes from empowering others, not taking on more yourself. When leaders focus on building capacity and multiplying talent, they prevent burnout, strengthen teams, and create lasting impact. In this session, you will learn how to increase impact without increasing stress through interactive activities and proven multiplier leadership strategies. Drawing on insights from Liz Wiseman’s "Multipliers," you will gain practical tools to unlock team potential, build capacity, and lead sustainably–all while protecting your own capacity and avoiding burnout.
If you are looking for help, or strategies, to help students feel confident in math and no longer be afraid of making mistakes- this session will provide those strategies for you! If you are looking for activities to get students up and moving to do the math- this session will provide those activities for you! This session will share, in action, strategies I have learned and applied from the book: Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, Grades K-12, by Peter Liljedah. I will share a practice I do in my classroom called "Quint Groups". This idea originated from my previous math coach, Shannon Millhouse. With the help from my math coach and strategies from BTC, I have created a variety of classroom activities and strategies I would love to share with you. I have created my own version of Quint Groups to have order and follow a routine so that students get up and move while doing their math, but without the chaos. Students are truly engaged and LOVE my Quint Groups. It builds their confidence and their ability to defend their math. This session will provide you with recourses, activities, strategies, and ideas you can implement in your classroom the very next day.

Teaching is both a science and an art. While the Science of Reading, Literacy act and Numeracy act currently rule the day, let's not forget the art of a truly engaging "hook" to ignite curiosity and a passion for learning! In this session we will explore integrating content in big and small ways to motivate our youngest learners. Using our science and social studies standards/curriculum is a great jumping off point to plan integrated experiences for our students. Book clubs, book bundles, curiosity projects, purposeful play, room transformations, and even choice of writing tools will be some of the ideas we will cover. All of these are easily modified for any K-2 classroom.

This session equips educators with trauma-informed strategies to recognize, prevent, and respond to student behavioral crises. Participants will learn how trauma and adverse childhood experiences impact brain function, emotional regulation, and behavior. The session will explore the crisis cycle, early warning signs, and evidence-based de-escalation techniques, including the importance of educator self-regulation, tone, and relationships. Practical tools such as the Zones of Regulation, mindfulness strategies, and proactive interventions will be shared. Attendees will leave with actionable strategies to create safer classrooms, reduce escalation, and support students in returning to a regulated state that promotes learning and emotional well-being.
