Every Word Counts: Nurturing Resilient Learners Through Language

You’ve been invited to:

The words we use with children have the power to shape how they see themselves, how they respond to challenges, and how they approach learning. In this workshop, we will explore the impact of everyday language on children’s resilience, confidence, and ability to thrive in the face of setbacks. Together, we will reflect on common phrases we use, discover strategies for reframing our language, and practice intentional ways of speaking that inspire independence and perseverance.

Educators will leave with practical tools to:

  • Recognize the subtle messages our words send to children

  • Use language that fosters self-belief, problem-solving, and persistence

  • Build an environment where children feel supported to take risks and grow

Every word counts. By choosing our words with care, we can help children develop the courage and resilience they need to flourish in both learning and life.
