OPTIONAL BREAKOUT

Are you ready for it? For what?! For your Chants and Cheers Engagement Era, of course! Step into the spotlight in this Tay-inspired breakout session where you’ll learn how chants, cheers, rhythm, music, and songs can seamlessly take center stage as they become integrated into all of the eras you ALREADY have established in your classroom! Discover how these powerful tools can immediately and impactfully transform your learning environment into an engaging and energetic space where every student, every time engages, learns, and thrives all too well!

In this session, you’ll create a playlist of chants and cheers that students will independently and automatically refer to every single day and well beyond their time in your classroom. This playlist will help you build a consistent framework that leads to student mastery of the content you’re teaching as you learn how to make content stick in fun and meaningful ways with chants that will never go out of style!

We’ll explore how these strategies go beyond content recall to foster creativity, confidence, and a deeper understanding of content. Get ready to shake it off with hands-on practice as we co-write and create our own chants and cheers - your version - that are each tailored (zero pun intended) to your classroom needs. Whether you’re a Swiftie or not, you’ll leave this session ready to make your whole classroom shimmer and engage your students like never before!
