SUMMARY:How Top Gun Shaped My Life: Media\, Morality and Imagination with Charlie Orphanides
DESCRIPTION:What did Rudolf Steiner mean when he spoke of Imagination (with an uppercase “I”)? Is there such a thing as morality without dogma and doctrine? How does media intersect and interact with our relationship to both Imagination and morality? And how did the 1986 Oscar winning film\, Top Gun\, influence the life of a Waldorf teacher? We will explore these questions in an interactive session\, in hopes of experiencing a few answers rather than simply listening to them and find Waldorf Education as offering a potential antidote to many of the challenges we see young people facing in today’s world.

SUMMARY:Canceled: Relearning Conversation
DESCRIPTION:This event has been canceled! \nCovid and the polarization that came in its wake laid bare our current cultural inability to engage in honest conversations about difficult topics. We have largely learned to accept government and the courts (and hence a top-down ordering) as our conflict resolution method. \nThis is an immeasurable loss for all of us. New knowledge and wisdom don’t grow by fiat. An open conversation allows new insights and surprising possibilities to emerge seemingly out of nowhere.\nIn this presentation\, Elan Leibner will present a framework for re-learning the art of conversation. A Waldorf teacher of many years called this presentation \,”The most inspiring talk about social interactions I’ve heard in years.” \nElan Leibner has been a Waldorf educator for over 30 years and is the chair of the Pedagogical Section Council of North America. He left his house of many years and has been living with his wife and two dogs in an RV full time since 2021\, traveling in search of natural beauty and in support of Waldorf education across the continent. https://elanleibner.com/

SUMMARY:Parent Education: Managing Children's Anxiety
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”161313″] \nHow to Help Children with Anxiety and Stress\nWorry and anxiety are normal emotions that we and our children experience on many occasions throughout life. Sometimes they are accompanied by other emotions such as nervousness\, fear\, panic\, and even anger. Want to learn more on how to help children manage this flurry? Join us for a presentation led by Denver Waldorf School Counselor Madhuri Deshmukh and Student Support Direct Andrea Weid on the body responses to anxiety\, stress\, and worry\, with tips and tools for managing these. \nDate: Tuesday\, December 6th\, 2022 \nTime: 8:45-10am; Join us for Coffee in the Courtyard starting at 8:15am \nLocation: DWS Music Room \nPlease note childcare is not provided.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”313350″] \nA Note from Madhuri on Body Responses\nWhen we experience anxiety\, our bodies go into fight\, flight\, freeze\, or fawn mode; this is our body’s natural way of reacting to a perceived threat. The bodily symptoms of anxiety\, such as increased heart rate\, sweating\, shakiness\, headaches\, butterflies in our stomach\, etc.\, urge us to decide fast whether to fight\, flee or freeze from a threatening situation. Life is often fast-paced and requires a lot of our time and energy\, and our children are not an exception to that. We all have varied definitions of what situations are threatening to us\, and our perception is shaped by our experiences; what you might find threatening\, another person may find easy to deal with. Just being aware of when our body is going into a fight\, flight or freeze or fawn mode can be a considerable tool for enabling us to overcome our worry and anxiety. \nAbout Madhuri Deshmukh\nMadhuri Deshmukh is a school counselor at Denver Waldorf School. She graduated from Lehigh University in Pennsylvania\, earning her Master’s in Counseling Psychology – School Counseling and Mental Health. During the last three years\, she worked as a school counselor in Douglas County School District. Before her previous job as a school counselor\, she served as a counseling intern for almost two years in an alternative\, Positive Behavioral Intervention Support (PBIS) research school in Pennsylvania. She served students with emotional difficulties and special educational needs on Tier III level emotional and behavioral support. She also comes from the extensive experience of her work with children with trauma\, neglect\, and abuse. In addition to her work at The  Denver Waldorf School\, she is a clinical intern with a nonprofit organization that offers mental health services to underserved families and children. She grew up in India and is close to her family\, home\, and culture. Madhuri likes to volunteer for various causes\, hang out with friends\, shop\, travel\, and explore new places and cultures in her free time. She is passionate about mental health and is grateful to have the opportunity to work with children.

SUMMARY:Parent Education: Nurturing a Growth Mindset in Children
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text] \nHow to Shift from Fixed Mindset to Growth Mindset\nAre there areas in your child’s life where they are not motivated or inspired\, give up easily\, stay away from challenges\, want to be perfect\, and sometimes even lie about their performance? For some of our children\, it might be music; for others\, it might be academics or sports or having to talk to peers in school or on the playground. If so\, those are areas where a child has a fixed mindset. Join us for a presentation led by Denver Waldorf School Counselor Madhuri Deshmukh and Student Support Direct Andrea Weid on shifting from fixed mindset to growth mindset. \nDate: Friday\, September 23rd\, 2022 \nTime: 8:45-9:45am; Join us for Coffee in the Courtyard starting at 8am \nLocation: DWS Music Room \nPlease note childcare is not provided.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nWhat You’ll Learn\nThis workshop focuses on understanding a growth mindset and how we can teach our kids to accept mistakes\, encounter challenges\, and problem-solve.  Specifically\, you’ll learn: \n\n\nThe five core needs of children and teens as they grow toward healthy sexual maturity\, and the five corresponding nurturing roles for families and school\n\n\n\nThe misplaced anxieties that keep adults from recognizing what is truly age-appropriate for kids to know\n\n\n\n\n\nHow to look behind children’s eyes\, see what they see\, and discover what they’re really wondering about\n\n\n\nHow to reduce discomfort and embarrassment—your own and your child’s\n\n\n\nResearch that demonstrates how vital early and ongoing conversations about sexuality are to health and well beings\n\n\n\n\n\nCreating authentic partnerships between families and schools around sexuality education\n\nWhat is Growth Mindset\nThe growth mindset is a theory invented by Stanford professor Carol Dweck\, Ph.D.\, in early 2000. It is a belief that we can learn and develop abilities. People with a growth mindset recognize the value of accepting challenges and learning from mistakes. They see that despite their natural ability\, they can improve their skills with effort and perseverance. On the contrary\, people with a fixed mindset believe that you are either born with talent/abilities or not\, and nothing can alter it; you cannot develop or enhance abilities. A child with a fixed mindset often thinks they cannot be successful because they are not good at something. For example; Fixed mindset: “I am not good at numbers\, so I will never learn my math facts!” vs. Growth mindset:  “If I practice every night for 20 minutes\, I will learn my multiplication facts!” \nFirstly\, we all need to celebrate mistakes. When children make mistakes\, it is essential to help them see it as an opportunity for Growth. Remember\, it is not uncommon for all of us to have a fixed mindset about some areas of our lives and a growth mindset about others. It does not only apply to academic success —we can have a growth mindset about relationships or even social problems. Furthermore\, we can all change our attitudes and grow our abilities and skills. \n\n\nAbout Madhuri Deshmukh\nMadhuri Deshmukh is a school counselor at Denver Waldorf School.
