Curriculum Options:

The Secret Superpowers PLUS version of the curriculum provides a three-hour, live, online teacher training. We recommend this option because it allows for discussion of the concepts in the curriculum, interaction between the participants, and the practice of mindfulness and loving-kindness. It also encourages teachers to practice for themselves, establishing a calm classroom atmosphere of kindness and compassion, leading to an ideal learning environment. The PLUS version of this curriculum gives you access to the course content and community for 3.5 months (15 weeks) and the pre-recorded training which can be used as a reference/refresher after the live training.

The Secret Superpowers BASIC version of the curriculum provides a 45-minute, pre-recorded teacher training. This shorter version is offered for those who cannot attend or pay for the live, online training. BASIC training includes teacher training but without live interaction and in-depth conversation. This version of this curriculum gives you access to the course content and community for 2.5 months (10 weeks).

The Secret Superpowers: Strong Foundations for SEL Competencies curriculum incorporates essential lessons from Micki Fine’s heartfelt children's book, May All People and Pigs Be Happy. In this charming picture book, young Claire learns how to bring mindful loving-kindness to everyday encounters from Pigalina, her stuffed but very alive pig. Claire learns to offer simple, loving wishes to herself first and then to people she encounters: her parents, a stranger, and even her friend who had just been unkind. Eventually, she spreads loving wishes to the whole world.
