Gather ‘Round for Webinar Wednesday 2019-11-04 Do you ever wish you could improve teacher buy-in in your district or school nutrition program but need a little help getting started? One way is to meet them where they are, the classroom. Join us for this week’s Webinar Wednesday on November 6 and hear about seven lessons plans that can be utilized by your school nutrition program to immerse students in learning about nutrition and food safety. Our speaker will explain how she developed these lesson plans to connect the cafeteria to the classroom, how you can get started and how to communicate with teachers to gain their support. Impressively, these changes have increased breakfast and lunch participation in her district by 1.5 million meals over 4 years. Then, next week, on Wednesday, November 13, we’ll be talking about one of those subjects that everyone can benefit and learn more about: self-awareness. Join Stephanie Gianni, Assistant Director of Food & Nutrition Services for Marquardt School District 15 in Glendale Heights, Ill., as she runs participants through exercises that will analyze their communication and behavior habits. Learn how to apply new techniques that could save you from miscommunication or upsetting co-workers unintentionally.
