Listen in to the podcast as our third grade team, Mrs. Gilpin and Mrs. Slavin, provide insight and takeaways from their experience at the Learning & the Brain Conference (Harvard University).

Both teachers touch on topics explored at the conference, including:

• Empathy
• Innovation
• Choice
• Solutionaries
• Problem Solving
• Motivation & Mindsets
• Kindness
• Community Service
• Cross-Curricular & Project-Based Learning
• Communication Skills

They also speak about an interesting bridge building project that is coming to fruition in the MakerSpace this week and an ongoing recycling project in third grade that incorporates these topics.
