Prerequisite: Mediated Learning Foundations

In conjunction with the Foundations Workshop and the Behaviour Workshop, this session explores cognitive processes—specifically how the brain thinks—and emphasizes the importance of developing these processes. By doing so, children can better understand their world, discern God's will for them, and act in accordance with His will in faith and integrity.

In this workshop:

• Move from struggle to success.
• Explore student attitude and belief using the mediational method.
• Assess weaknesses and strengths.
• Support children struggling with focus, memory, confusion, processing, frustration, planning, and learning delays.
• Develop an actionable plan.
• Gain hope, moving from “I can’t” to “I can.”
