Description
As educators today, more than ever, we need quick ways to get the brain ready for both teaching and learning. Whether we are homeschooling, teaching remotely or in person, we are all experiencing the effects of these stressful times. Some of us experience those effects directly, others of us indirectly through the experiences of others. Either way, we are absorbing stress and it changes the brain. It shifts the brain into anxiety, distraction and shut down, creating obstacles to learning that need to be overcome. We can get ahead of this. Let’s no longer assume that everyone is ready for what we have to offer as teachers. Let’s take the seconds, or in some instances, the few moments necessary to set the brain into effective action for all. The many activities of this guide are tried and true. They will help us to feel better as we meet the extraordinary demands of this time, making teaching more enjoyable, and learning more possible.
