One Thing

What is one thing (the first thing) you're going to try to make your classroom more brain friendly in the fall? My first thing, when I first started, was getting water bottles for all the kids.

Everyone around me is getting tired of hearing how their brain works....:0)

new posts

Once I make a comment on someone else's post then it let's me make my own posting...I don't get it...Need more brain based help!!!!

Finally Arrived

This is my first time to join a BLOG! But I thought I needed to get out of my comfort zone, engage my brain, and learn something new. I feel so very comfortable with all of you that if I mess this up I won't feel humiliation!

I just wanted to thank Cindy for such an excellent class and all of you for making the week so much fun! Teachers Are the Best!!

I don't think I posted this correctly the first time. I added it to another conversation by accident. Hope this is correct this time.

Okay, did anyone have a light bulb go on at about 6:00am on Saturday morning? I did and now my brain cannot stop! I am dreaming heads together structures relentlessly. UGH! I think I have the first week and a half of school sorted out now. Anyone with any thoughts on this: Since I do not know any of my students really this year, I plan to put them in teams to do stations while I test for placements. Then get started on the reading and math programs a couple of weeks into the year. Logical or no?Thanks for any input.

An idea for use of this blog

I think this blog would be great to share our experiences with brain based teaching as the year goes along. We can share what went well and what didn't go well. We can also share ideas and support each other throughout the year.

Stretching My Spatial Intelligence

Hello everyone. I have been having some trouble making new posts...it seems the "new post" option is only on my page part of the time! I would love to see some of you share ideas here about how we can use the blog to continue the learning we experienced this week. Why don't you practice posting and commenting by sharing some of your "brain rain with us!

Friends

Lisa, how did you get on as a follower and a friend?

I Get it Now

OK, now I get it. So, I deleted the comment I had made on Cindy's post.

Posting

I am trying to figure out how to post. My first try ended up being a comment on Cindy's post. Now, I have tried clicking on the New Post link beside my gmail address. Wish me luck.

It's great to see that a few of you have already signed in on the blog. Thanks to Vickie for setting it up...and to Lisa for getting us going! I hope that we can continue to communicate about BBT here.

Have a great weekend and enjoy the remainder of your summer!
