NB 2026Never Boring Student Engagement WorkshopJune 16
Hosted byCabot Schools

The Never Boring Conference for Educators 3rd-10th Grades

June 16, 2026
Tuesday

Topics That Matter. Strategies That Work. Never Boring!

This one-day, high-impact workshop is built for educators working with today’s screen-focused Gen Z and Gen Alpha learners—students who crave connection, collaboration, and relevance, but often struggle with communication, focus, and real-world interaction.

You’ll leave with practical, classroom-ready strategies that help students:

  • Reconnect with peers through meaningful interaction
  • Strengthen communication, collaboration, and social awareness
  • Build self-regulation, engagement, and confidence
  • Practice real-world skills that extend beyond the screen

At Nuts & Bolts, we focus on real solutions for real educators. Every session equips teachers and school leaders with research-based strategies you can use immediately—no fluff, no theory-only talk.

Expect:

  • High-energy, interactive learning experiences
  • Fun games and movement-based activities that reinforce SEL skills
  • Simple structures that boost participation and student voice
  • Engagement strategies that meet Gen Z and Gen Alpha where they are

There will be learning, laughter, and plenty of opportunities to participate in a true Never Boring experience.

Our presenters are educators first. They share what works, what doesn’t, and how to adapt strategies for your students—real classrooms, real challenges, real results.

This is professional learning that recognizes the social, emotional, and academic needs of today’s learners.

Practical. Interactive. Never boring.
