Humour laughter and happiness are vital ingredients for engagement. If you get children and young people emotionally involved, if they enjoy what they’re doing, they’re going to want to be there and want to learn.

One of the most important chemicals for learning is dopamine. Dopamine is enhanced when we feel good, connected and positive. Therefore creating a classroom where this happens will enhance learning connections. This teacher inset day workshop will be a mix of theory and practical skills to take back to the classroom and use every day for increasing engagement, learning and motivation.
