About this listen
The heart of this podcast episode revolves around the integration of physical and mental wellness in education, encapsulated in Detroit Country Day School’s motto, "Mens Sana in Corpore Sano," which translates to "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." We dive into how educators at DCDS are actively fostering a culture that prioritizes the holistic development of students, ensuring they thrive both in and out of the classroom. By sharing stories supported by Mind Brain Education from various classrooms, we explore how movement, play, and community engagement are essential for learning. Our guests: Kathleen Pernick and Katie Maisonville - a PreK team, Chelsea Larsen - middle school theatre teacher, and Henry Upton - upper school history teacher offer insights on mind–body connection, balance and well-being, multimodal learning, and classroom community. Join us as we unpack the practical applications of this philosophy and its impact on student growth and success.
