The FISH! For Schools Guided Journey is a staff development program for K-12 educators. It combines the practical wisdom of The FISH! Philosophy with sound research to help you:
-
We met Pete in a gift shop in California (true story). He wasn’t much of a talker, but he made us smile. We offered him a job as the official stuffed mascot of The FISH! Philosophy. Pete loves to sit on desks and computers, and wears a stylish label with the FISH! practices to help you remember them. Pete comes in a 4-pack (joined by his brother and two sisters, each of whom is also named Pete; it’s a family name).
-
The perfect team-building activity for any FISH! event or meeting opener.
The deck is divided into a series of corresponding cards, one for Partner A and another for Partner B. The partners follow the instructions on their particular card, one discussing a FISH! topic while the other listens, then responds. Conversation Cards help you explore what each FISH! practice looks and feels like. It’s a great way to learn about yourself, learn about each other and practice Be There.
