PZ PGH Learning and Thinking that Make a Difference (May 2026) has ended
Tuesday May 19, 2026 10:15am - 12:00pm EDT
Experience how nervous system regulation supports meaningful learning and understanding through this movement-based practice. Guided movement, meditation, breathwork, and artful mark-making invite participants to explore how shifts in the body influence attention and engagement.

Participants will move through a cycle of experience, reflection, and discussion, using thinking routines from Project Zero, including Headlines and Connect–Extend–Challenge, to make thinking visible and connect insights to classroom practice.

Participants will build awareness, creativity, and a greater sense of agency while exploring how regulation can support their presence and teaching practice. They will also leave with a toolkit of embodied strategies that can be used immediately with students to support focus, memory, creativity, and connection.

Wear comfortable clothing, bring a yoga mat if available, and come ready to actively engage in a movement and meditation-based experience.
