Don't Sweat the Flops: an INTERACTIVE Virtual Workshop for Young Adult Library Staff!
Friday, May 15, 2020
10:00 AM ET
Space is extremely limited so please only register if you 1) Can attend LIVE and 2) have a webcam<https://libraryofmichigan.z2systems.com/np/clients/libraryofmichigan/event.jsp?event=321&>.
If you cannot attend live and do not have a web cam, I'll be sharing the recording out to all to watch at a later point.
Don't Sweat the Flops...
It won't be perfect the first time. Or the second. Accepting this will accelerate skill building and frankly make the process a lot more enjoyable for teens. Fear of failure creates anxiety and prevents many people from even starting on a path toward growth whether it be one of personal or even professional development.
This session will guide teen librarians on how to help break through that fear by making "flopping" fun. Flow Circus will introduce librarians to the flop ball; this simple, yet challenging skill toy has players use the back of their hands to throw and catch - a slight change that requires a shift in mindset and the player to pay attention in a new way. During the process, Flow Circus will provide strategies to help empower teens to get out of their own way and ask for help when they need it.
Participants get a set of six flop balls as a reminder of lessons learned and to use for programming with teens. It also serves as a "pause button" that they can keep on their desk or in their pocket as a signal to pay attention to the process of the task in front of them.
Again, please only register if you can attend live and have a webcam: https://libraryofmichigan.z2systems.com/np/clients/libraryofmichigan/event.jsp?event=321&

Hands-on, engaging webinars coming up fast for youth & teen services! Even if you can't attend live, register to get a recording.
These are great opportunities to learn some tips & tricks on how to engage with your patrons, whether from a distance or in-person.

2:00 PM ET
For some children, home is not a safe place.  Take a deeper look at what some children might be experiencing in this time of crisis, how it might affect learning, how to recognize the signs of abuse, and how public libraries might best serve these children. Dr. Amelia Siders will be our presenter, she is the Director of Clinical Practice Development and Education, at the Children's Advocacy Centers of Michigan.
Children's Advocacy Centers (CACs) partner with prosecutors, law enforcement, and protective services to coordinate the investigation of child maltreatment-often child sexual abuse. CACs also provide support to child survivors of abuse so that those kids can get back to being kids.

"Story" is a part of a child's first language and key to exploring and understanding their world. Imaginative play is essential to a healthy childhood and a more compassionate, fulfilling adulthood. And so, providing children opportunities for open-ended narrative play with puppets and props will not only allow them to develop social skills like sharing and cooperation, it will also help use their imagination to grow in language and literacy! In this webinar, facilitated by Storyteller and Narrative Consultant, Jenifer Strauss, learn how to provide children with simple puppets and props from every-day household items to provide "anytime, anywhere" opportunities for narrative play.
