Title: StoryPlay® in the Classroom: A multicultural model for helping children overcome obstacles to learning and achieving their goals

Description: The challenges and pressures that children face at school today are immense. These pressures are resulting more and more in the child’s lack of focus and motivation, increased stress and anxiety, as well as depression. In addition our children are more often than not forgetting about their natural inner strengths and resources, and are consequently losing in the struggle to maintain their creative authentic expression. This experiential workshop will provide participants with motivational StoryPlay® activities, which as a part of play therapy, will help children reconnect with their inner resources and potential, utilize their creativity, and build on their success;

* Life Story Puzzle – Draw symbols that identify you in all parts of your life, and then connect your piece to others to complete the puzzle.
* Identity Shield – Using crafts and drawings to identify who you are.
* Heart Happy Drawing – A drawing that makes your heart sing, as well as a mobile affirmation.

Love and Blessings,
Joy
