Whole Brain Teaching



Little Miss Kindergarten - Lessons from the Little Red Schoolhouse!: Whole Brain Teaching:
"I saw a Whole Brain Teaching video clip on on of my favorite blogs the kinder polka dot patch and I had to look this up and post this for..."

I love at the end of the video how they explain that the rules are rehearsed every morning, after lunch, and after recess.  That's a lot of practicing!

Here's another Whole Brain Teaching video.



I can see that there are a lot of things that would fit with my style, and a few that I'd probably skip.  I watched a few YouTube videos of classes that use Whole Brain Teaching that seemed extreme, but I think I could easily fit components in to fit my personality.

  1. I started following the theory of WBT last year, and incorporated several of the techniques with my firsties. I found quite a few techniques to be especially helpful. I think you can easily adapt WBT to your own teaching style.

  2. Tanya,
    This will be new for me, but I saw a lot that I liked! What are the things that work best for you from WBT?
