A Tale of Two Stories: The Tools of Resilience
Presented by Lisa Chavenson, Becky Crossfield, and Bernadette Janis
Resilience
• We learned from the presentation on the emotional brain that there are two tales that are always active- one of stress, often toxic stress and one of resilience.
• In this program participants will explore how a story of challenge and obstacles evolves into a story of resilience. We will connect this to the four lenses of learning.
Today we’re exploring your own tale of resilience
- What it is- How it connects to the PLN frameworks- How it informs your practice- How you can impact your students by
amplifying their resilience
Here’s what we’re talking about:
re·sil·ience: 1. the power or ability to return to the original form,
position, etc., after being bent, compressed, or stretched; elasticity.
2. ability to recover readily from illness, depression, adversity, or the like; buoyancy.
Grit:Backbone, chutzpah, fortitude, guts,stick-to-it-iveness A. Duckworth
Resilience is where you find it!Consider these tales of resilience.
Focus question:How was he resilient? What supported his
development of grit?
Read aloud: If She Only Knew Me by Jeff Gray and Heather Thomas
Ben Carson
I’m going to tell you about someone who I think demonstrated grit and resilience.
As I do, listen and think:
Focus question:

Share and collate:
• During:• In your small group, connect your tools of
resilience to strategies for building resilience in our students. Brainstorm ideas and record on the back of the new four square template provided.
• These strategies will reflect the lenses just like your tools do.
• I’ll show you what I mean.
Share out
• Keep the lenses in mind.
• On the other side You have a notemaking template for recording these brilliant ideas!
Here are some ideas, embedded in this workshop, that you might want to try:• “Read alouds” or “listen tos” to intro a topic• Focus questions to guide thinking and zero in
on the pertinent info• Thought bubbles• Categorizing experiences by lenses- reflecting
independently and reflecting collaboratively.• Scaffolding thought processes using
templates• Adaptations of Lisa’s adorable ticket out the
door guy
Ticket out the door- You keep it!
• Complete the “ticket out the door person”.
• Turn and talk.
What do you want to take away with you?• (After) Use “ your guy.” Write: • Head: What are you thinking about differently?• Hands: What do you have to give based on your
own story of resilience?• Foot: What steps do you want to take?• Heart: How do you want to share this with your
students?• Six months from now, what do you want to
remember?
