How Executive functioning skills (EFs) create student success

Skills Come first, content comes next

The power of shared routine and habits

And his wonderful program, Organized Binder

About Mitch Weathers:

Mitch became a gifted teacher because he was a mediocre student. 

Mitch rarely felt comfortable in the classroom. In fact, it took him 7 years for him to graduate from college. 

Choosing to become a teacher, Mitch was fortunate enough to experience school as if it was happening all around him. He was unsure how to jump into his learning with confidence. There is a loneliness to experiencing your education as a passive object as opposed to an active subject. 

From the moment he entered the classroom Mitch relied on his personal experiences as a learner. He recognized that what we teach, the content or curriculum, is secondary. We must first lay the foundation for learning before we can get to teaching. 

Mitch designed Organized Binder to empower teachers with a simple but research-backed strategy to teach students executive functioning skills while protecting the time needed for content instruction. The secret is found in establishing a predictable learning routine that serves to foster safer learning spaces. When students get practice with executive functions by virtue we set them up for success.

And his Book, Becoming the Change

About Dan Wolfe:

Dan has served in Pasco County, Florida for more than 25 years. During his time, he has held roles as a teacher, instructional coach and administrator. He is currently an Assistant Principal at Sunray Elementary and recently completed the Preparing New Principals Program. He was selected as Pasco County’s District Teacher of the Year in 2011-2012 school year.

For the past three years he has written a blog called Becoming The Change which focuses on a different quote each day and how we can best apply it towards becoming the change through our own moral compass and the five areas in SEL. He has turned that blog into a 5 day a week podcast on Apple and Spotify podcast platforms. In June 2022 he had his first book published on Amazon called Becoming the Change: Five Essential Elements To Being Your Best Self. 

During his spare time Dan enjoys spending his time reading, listening to podcasts, and going to Disney with his wife and daughter.

In this week’s Aspire to lead episode, Bradley James Davies shares how a panic attack and a near death experience enlightened him on how he was dealing with stress and mental health. Join us as we discuss the lessons learned through this important experience and how Bradley coaches leaders to combat stress. 

Improving our Appreciation, Culture, and making sure Leaders Go Last

How Not to Lose Your Way…Coach, Community, & Teflon

And his Book, School Leadership from A to Z: How to Lead Well Without Losing Your Way

About Bradley James Davies:

Celebrated school leader and former Oscar Mayer Wienermobile Driver, after a two-decade career in education that included teaching, coaching, and leading across all grade levels, Davies fulfilled his long-held dream of writing a book. School Leadership from A to Z: How to Lead Well Without Losing Your Way is about the ups, downs, and all-arounds of school life and leadership. It’s lighthearted, heavy at times, and funny throughout. Its goal is to help educators thrive through the challenges and stresses of school life and leadership.

Born and raised in Minnesota, Davies attended Stanford University where he served as junior class president and captained the men’s soccer team. Later, he was honored as a Lily Fellow at Duke Divinity School where he graduated magna cum laude. He holds a Certificate in Leadership Coaching from Georgetown University and is the founder of Falkor, a leadership and life consultancy dedicated to helping clients live better, love better, and lead better. His current clients span all sectors, from technology and entertainment to government and education, and all levels of leadership, from rising stars to c-suite veterans.

When not roaming the Earth as an author, speaker, and coach, Davies calls Colorado home. His big dream is to someday add to his family a therapy dog named Fred.

In this week’s Aspire to lead episode, Amber Calderon shares about the importance of recovering emotionally over the summer and establishing health work boundaries to protect our emotional wellbeing. 

Creative professional development and communities

Accelerating learning

Are you emotionally safe at work?

And about Classroom Champions!

About Amber Calderon:

Amber attended Baylor University with a degree in Psychology & Rhetoric and Argumentation. During that time I worked alongside the Dean of Psychology as his research assistant. She decided to get certified to be a teacher and taught elementary for four years! During that time, Amber managed the suicide hotline and was a Sexual Assault Crime Victims Advocate for 6 years. 

While teaching, she quickly realized how lonely the profession was in addition to lack of resources. Amber started creating her own lesson plans and when searching Pinterest, discovered that there was a whole community of teachers just like her – wanting to make connections and build a digital community. These teachers were also making money from their lesson plans! She used my Psychology degree to leverage marketing tactics and made more than my teaching salary in my first year teaching! This caught the eye of the Founder of Nearpod…and thus her corporate journey began.

In this new BONUS episode, we learn from Michael and Sam’s failure in expecting staff and students to be able to use technology well beyond their current ability. I also share 3 strategies on Building Capacity vs Enabling Staff. 

I have been an educator for 12 years. I’ve been a Digital Learning Coach, Instructional Technology Facilitator, Online Algebra Teacher, 8th Grade Math Teacher, and Special Education Resource Teacher. For the last 7 years, I’ve been involved with digital learning. 

I pride myself on always helping teachers get to the next step in their digital learning journey. Whether that means becoming proficient in a specific digital tool, an idea for making a lesson more meaningful for students, or ways to integrate more technology into the day to day classroom activities - I’m always willing to help however I can. 

When I’m not immersed in the digital learning world, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, listening to podcasts, and playing a variety of sports.

I have been in education for the past 17 years and have taught in a variety of situations. My first 11 years I spent teaching high school social studies and the last six years I have been involved in digital learning. During my first five years teaching, I also coached boys athletics for the high schools I worked for. I have been in small schools with a population of about 150 to huge schools with a population of about 3,500 and have taught a variety of subjects from World Geography to AP World and US History. 

As I integrated more and more technology into my class, I became fascinated with the endless possibilities technology provided my students. Most transformative to me was how technology allowed my students to become the center of the learning process. My desire to encourage that kind of learning environment is what led me into my role in digital learning. 

Personally, I have been married to the most amazing wife ever, Katie, since 2009 and we have the two best kids ever, Eva and Cyrus. I live for my family and we do so much for each other. From youth sports to hiking adventures, we have a great life together!
