Tuesday Teaching Tips - Literacy Retreat

Tracy Spakausky and I will be attending a literacy retreat on Tuesday and Wednesday.  I am sure there will be many ideas to share from this conference.  A couple videos were sent to us before the conference.  One of the videos was about reading comprehension.  If you have time, please watch the video.  What a great way to help children understand what is going on in their head while they are reading!

The Voices Inside a Reader's Head:

I will add other ideas to this page after the conference.

Tuesday Teaching Tips

Whole Brain Teaching

Last week, I had the privilege of attending the Standards, Assessments, and Differentiation, Oh My! Conference in Bensenville School District 2.  Many of the elementary teachers use Whole Brain Teaching to engage students and manage their classrooms.  If you are interested in finding out more about Whole Brain Teaching, let me know.  I would love to work with any teacher that would like to implement Whole Brain Teaching in their classrooms!  I am also including some video examples of Whole Brain Teaching in action!!!

There are many more videos.  I have only included 3.  Let me know if you want more!
