In this session, we’ll explore the neuroscience behind reading development and why the brain thrives on interaction, explicit instruction, and active engagement—not passive slide decks. Walk away with brain-based strategies that reduce cognitive overload, increase retention, and put students—not screens—at the center of literacy instruction.?: 10:00 AM - 11:30 AMBack to the Basics of Hands-On Learning and Student EngagementHost: Holly EhleInfo: Many old school classrooms understood something powerful: kids learn best when they move, collaborate, build, and create. In this session, you’ll discover how to design high-engagement units and classroom transformations that are developmentally appropriate, socially rich, and academically rigorous. Leave with practical frameworks for creating immersive learning experiences that strengthen both content mastery and student connection.?: 11:30 AM - 01:00 PMLunch on Your Own?: 01:00 PM - 02:30 PMChalkboard Management:  Behavior Basics by GregHost: Mr. GregInfo: Struggling with classroom management? Explore research-based, classroom proven strategies, ideas, and tips for your classroom. Discover the transformative impact of relationships, consistency, and clear expectations. Implement easy-to-follow tips and tricks to streamline your classroom dynamics, creating a smoothly operating class—no behavior programs, rewards, or incentives required!?: 03:00 PM - 04:30 PMReading, Writing, And Arithmetic:  Bootcamp Basics Host: Mr. GregInfo: We ask kids to read books, write sentences, and solve problems… before we’ve actually built the skills that make those things possible. In this session, I’ll walk you through  our TKS BOOTCAMP— the routines, pacing, and lesson structure we use to systematically build phonics and number sense so learning becomes easier instead of harder. This isn’t centers, worksheets, or guessing strategies. It’s explicit teaching, repetition with purpose, and engagement that keeps kids successful. You’ll see how phonics and math fluency grow together, how we keep every student participating, and how short, focused daily practice leads to huge growth. You’ll leave understanding what to teach, how to teach it, and why it works — plus how to implement it immediately without overhauling your entire day.Day 2?: 08:00 AM - 09:30 AMThe Overhead Projector Classroom:  Low Tech Tools For LearningHost: Mr. Greg?: 10:00 AM - 11:30 AMComposition Books, & Cognitive Load: Teaching Writing the Brain-Friendly WayHost: Holly Ehle?: 11:30 AM - 01:00 PMLunch on Your Own?: 01:00 PM - 02:30 PMThe Schoolhouse Startup Plan-Back To School Basics Host: Mr. GregInfo: The first weeks of school decide how the entire year is going to feel… and most of us were never actually taught what to do during it. We decorate, we panic-plan, we jump into curriculum — and then spend October trying to fix it. In this session, I’ll walk you step-by-step through exactly what I do from the moment students enter the room through those first few weeks of school.  We’ll cover classroom setup, organization, routines, procedures, lessons, and activities that teach kids how school works before we ever worry about standards and worksheets. You’ll leave with a realistic, day-by-day plan that builds independence, prevents behavior problems, and creates a calm, happy classroom — without staying up all night or making 400 labels.?: 02:30 PM - 04:00 PMClosing KeynoteHost: Mr. GregInfo: Mr. Greg will end our conference with an upbeat and inspiring keynote. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/nolensville/elevate-back-to-the-schoolhouse-nashville-2026/100001983276113243 - **Event Categories**: kids, business, conferences, workshops, meet-and-greet, back-to-school, science-fair - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: all_ages - door_time: 2026-07-22T10:00:00Z - Duration: 8 hours - Location: HISTORIC NOLENSVILLE SCHOOL MUSEUM - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 100, max: 150, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Nolensville - **state**: TN - **country**: United States - **location**: HISTORIC NOLENSVILLE SCHOOL MUSEUM - **lat**: 35.9596254 - **long**: -86.67248289999999 - **full address**: HISTORIC NOLENSVILLE SCHOOL MUSEUM, 7248 Nolensville Road, Nolensville, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: ELEVATE: Back to the Schoolhouse - Nashville 2026 - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/0a5555766c9eb1ad4092660e456889999fe2d225e33b1828975434f8f3948378-rimg-w1200-h600-dc030403-gmir.jpg?v=1771351192 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is ELEVATE: Back to the Schoolhouse - Nashville 2026 being held? - **A:** ELEVATE: Back to the Schoolhouse - Nashville 2026 takes place on Wed, 22 Jul, 2026 at 08:00 am to Thu, 23 Jul, 2026 at 04:00 pm at HISTORIC NOLENSVILLE SCHOOL MUSEUM, 7248 Nolensville Road, Nolensville, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing ELEVATE: Back to the Schoolhouse - Nashville 2026? - **A:** ELEVATE: Back to the Schoolhouse - Nashville 2026 is organized by Elevate Your Classroom, LLC. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
