UPCOMING EVENTS

Available Mon-Fri for the forseeable future
FREE COVID-Related Parenting Workshops
Parenting is challenging in a normal context, but quarantine and social distancing present exponentially greater challenges, particularly for families who must share close quarters, work remotely, and/or support more than one child in their schooling and virtual social experience.
Green Ivy Schools is pleased to offer a weekly series of free parenting workshops in child psychology, sleep management and occupational and physical therapy.
As an organization delivering a full schedule of live remote school programming for ages 2-12, we have discovered that problems associated with each of these areas can be resolved effectively and can not only enhance a child's remote learning experience, but can lead to long-term improvements in parenting and parent-child relationships.

BRINGING BEST PRACTICES TO THE WORLD.

Green Ivy Learning is committed to bringing best practices in future-focused education to classrooms and learning spaces around the world by providing training and consultation in cutting-edge learning models. These practices are founded on the belief that early introduction to the foundations of technology ensures more mindful, creative contributions to the digital world and better positions learners to engage technology for solution-building rather than the passive consumption and "screen time" that worries most parents.

Green Ivy educators currently offer trainings in Montessori-based Learning Beautiful, founded and developed by Kim Smith at the MIT Media Lab.
