Subject: An idea for our professional learning

Hi [Principal's name],

I came across The Learning Framework®, created by Dr. Stephanie Helfand, and I think it could help our staff and our students.

It is built on the neuroscience of how learning happens in the brain. It names the five conditions every brain needs in order to learn, and it gives teachers, families, and specialists one common language. When a learner is struggling, we can all see which condition for learning is not being met and respond together.

What stood out to me is that it works with the programs and tools we already use. Dr. Helfand helps schools adjust what they already have, and when a school is starting from nothing, she provides simple tools and strategies to begin.

She offers full-day sessions for staff, such as The Five Conditions for Learning and Managing Your Executive Functions, and a year-long partnership that brings in staff, families, learners, and specialists. Her 2026 to 2027 school year is fully booked, and she is now booking summer 2027 and the 2027 to 2028 school year.

Would you be willing to take a look? You can see what she offers at TheLearningFramework.org/work.

Thank you,

Subject: A resource I would love our school to consider

Hi [Name],

As a parent, I want the support my child gets at home and the support they get at school to come from the same understanding.

I found The Learning Framework®, created by Dr. Stephanie Helfand. It is built on the neuroscience of learning in the brain, and it gives schools and families one common language for what a learner needs in order to learn. When a learner is struggling, everyone can see which of the five conditions for learning is not being met and respond the same way at home and at school.

Dr. Helfand works with school staff, and she also offers evening sessions for families, so teachers and parents can learn the same framework. It works with the programs and tools the school already uses.

Would you consider taking a look? You can see what she offers at TheLearningFramework.org/work.

Thank you for everything you do for our children,

Subject: A shared language for the learners we support together

Hi [Name],

In my work as a [school psychologist, therapist, coach, or your role], I see how much more we can do for a learner when the school team, the family, and the specialists understand the learner's needs in the same way.

The Learning Framework®, created by Dr. Stephanie Helfand, gives all of us that shared understanding. It is built on the neuroscience of learning and names the five conditions every brain needs in order to learn. Specialists and practitioners are welcome in every session, and the framework helps us align the plans we write at school with the plans families use at home.

Dr. Helfand also coaches leadership teams to align MTSS, intervention planning, and student problem-solving with the neuroscience of learning.

Could we talk about bringing this to our team? You can see what she offers at TheLearningFramework.org/work.

Subject: A proposal for a year-long partnership

Hi [Name],

I would like to propose a partnership with Dr. Stephanie Helfand, creator of The Learning Framework®.

Her framework is built on the neuroscience of how learning happens in the brain. It gives educators, specialists, families, and learners one common language, so our teams can identify which condition for learning is not being met for a learner and respond together with more precision.

A year-long partnership can include an opening-day keynote and a full day of learning for staff, return visits on in-service days, workshops and coaching through the year, an evening series for families, sessions for students, work with our specialists to align school plans with home plans, leadership coaching for our MTSS and intervention planning, and a train-the-trainer cohort so the work continues in our district.

The framework works with the programs and tools we already have. Dr. Helfand helps us adjust them using what we know about how the brain learns.

Her 2026 to 2027 school year is fully booked, and she is now booking summer 2027 and the 2027 to 2028 school year, so I would like to start the conversation soon. The details are at TheLearningFramework.org/work.

Thank you,

Subject: An idea for a parent evening

Hi [Name],

I would like to suggest a parent evening with Dr. Stephanie Helfand, creator of The Learning Framework®. She explains the neuroscience of how learning happens in the brain in plain language and gives parents something to try at home that same week.

She offers a single evening talk on a topic such as attention, remembering, or executive function, which can be in person or virtual. She also offers the Caregiver Series, five evenings on the five conditions for learning, and the Developmental Progressions Series, which explains what to expect from a child's brain at each age and stage.

When our school staff and our families learn the same framework, teachers and parents can use the same language about learning.

You can see what she offers at TheLearningFramework.org/work.

Thank you,
