LessonSongs for Peacemaking: Songs and Activities for a Peaceable Classroom

Teacher Workshops

Fun and rewarding workshops for elementary school staff, based on social-emotional learning concepts and songs from Paulette Meier's CD: Come Join the Circle. 

Teachers are invited to listen, learn, sing along, share ideas, and participate in activities for teaching children concepts and skills in conflict resolution and social emotional learning.  Participants will learn ASL interpretations for song choruses and will leave with many ideas for how to incorporate peacemaking songs and activities into classroom routines.

Staff development workshops are customized according to needs, based on selected skills and concepts embedded in the songs, such as:

  • Listening Skills
  • Creative Problem Solving
  • Dealing with Feelings
  • Speaking Up for Oneself
  • De-escalating Conflicts
  • Affirming and Appreciating Each Other
  • Critical Thinking under Social Pressure
  • Respecting  Differences and Recognizing Commonalities
