Teaching and Learning Reimagined
Über uns
Center for Inspired Teaching is an independent nonprofit organization that invests in and supports teachers. Inspired Teaching provides transformative, improvisation-based professional learning for teachers that is 100% engaging – intellectually, emotionally, and physically. Inspired Teaching envisions a future where all students are enthusiastic learners, who look forward to school and have agency in their education. That begins with teachers. When teachers build creativity, critical thinking skills, or content knowledge in a joyful and challenging environment, they are better positioned to build those skills in their students. Inspired Teaching Institutes are FREE, improvisation-based professional development for teachers and school leaders. They move participants beyond passive professional learning: Inspired Teaching teaches the way people learn best – with our whole selves. Learn more on the Inspired Teaching website!

Center for Inspired Teaching reposted this
"He opened our eyes to the world. He taught us how to talk about global issues with respect, curiosity, and kindness, even -- and especially -- when we disagreed." This quote, from a former student of Democractic VP nominee Tim Walz during the delegate roll call last night at the #DNC, perfectly encapsulates the lessons of Center for Inspired Teaching's Speak Truth program. And it is something we believe all #teachers can, and should do, for their students. The young people in our classrooms today will be tomorrow's leaders; learning these skills now is critical to ensuring they lead with empathy, thoughtfulness, and authentic interest in the world around them.

🌠 Activity Spotlight: Prep to Music 🎵 Have you ever noticed how music can change the way you feel, or guide your thinking? Music can even make things we struggle with a little easier! Try creating a playlist of songs that help you get things done, listen to them while you plan, and see what happens. Pay attention to what songs help you focus and what songs make you jump from your seat and dance—you probably don't want the latter for lesson planning, but you’ll appreciate those songs when you need to get up and exercise. Find more suggestions on incorporating music into your prep and classroom here: https://lnkd.in/duCJNumk #InspiredTeaching #TeacherTips #TeacherResources
