Turn and Talk Tips

July 31, 2019

This is one of my favorite strategies to teach my classes- and my life as a teacher has become so much easier since I implemented a few key steps. My teaching partner and I experienced our very first Turn and Talk as participants in a workshop by Bobb Darnell in 2008 and we’ve been using it with students and adults… Read More

3 Steps to a Classroom Reset

3 Steps to a Classroom Reset

March 4, 2019

Sometimes we all just need a classroom reset. Do you want your students to behave or do you want more than that? If you spend all day managing behaviors, you are EXHAUSTED by 3:00. I know!!! I’ve been there. It takes so much mental energy, so much executive functioning to anticipate every fire that might start- and to put out… Read More

I’ve observed first hand the link between dyslexia, rhythm and elapsed time for years in my house. Lucky for me, my village Includes experienced educators and dyslexia specialists. On my best days- seeing the connection so clearly gave me confidence in the treatment and interventions I was seeking. For the past month, my house has been FULL of song. The kid who never recited a nursery rhyme, won’t sing Happy Birthday, and often asks for the radio to be shut off if someone is singing along… has had a song stuck in his head. And while I’m kind of sick of “The 50 States the Rhyme” in general, I could not be more THRILLED about this milestone. I have so much hope and optimism today, and gratitude for the teachers who have gotten us here. When the road ahead seems like an insurmountable mountain, it’s the individual trees and markers along the way that are worth celebrating and keep you focused. Waking up 45 minutes before my alarm to another soulful rendition of the 50 states was like pausing for a picnic along the path. I’m grateful to be present for it. ... See MoreSee Less

PSA: I forgot this tonight, and we paid dearly. Sharing so maybe you won’t have to do the same.🪩We don’t have to do all the events. I don’t have to spend an hour in a loud overstimulating gymnasium because “they” say it’s fun for kids. I know it’s not fun for me. And the universe smacks me in the back of the head when we get home every time- by way of a major kid meltdown. 🌈My kids will make great childhood memories even if we skip the family dance or glow-in-the-dark bowling night. I had an AMAZING childhood and barely remember any of those types of things. I DO remember quiet times at home with my family. My core memories have nothing to do with big, organized events. 👇🏼What’s something that you think should be good for kids that just doesn’t work for your family??#goodinsideparenting #knowingyourkids #boundries #neurodivergentfamily #asdkids #ndaffirming #familytime #raisingkids #teachermom #adhdkids #teachermomlife #schooldance ...
