  • Episode 47 | Why Inclusion Matters, and How We Can Be More Inclusive - Interview With Melinda Arnost, @empoweringinclusiontoolbox

    Inclusion. Community. Diversity. Equity. Equal opportunity. Differentiation. Socio-emotional learning.

    After a while, it's easy to get a little sick of the buzzwords as an educator.

    And what's worse, is that schools will often start these initiatives with no idea of HOW they want teachers to do all of this.

    In actuality? I don't think they even know what they mean, or HOW to truly be inclusive in the classroom.

    This is what I talk through with Melinda Arnost who's the author of the book Empowering Inclusion.

    She's so patient, approachable and helpful when it comes to these topics. Go snag her book!

        In this upcoming series, I'm sharing allll of my secrets.

        I'm walking you through EXACTLY how I keep all of the students engaged, 95% of the time (because we all know 100% is unrealistic!!).

        And it all starts with getting students' attention.

        But, how can we make our students pay attention without yelling at them?

        That's exactly what I'm sharing in this episode.

        • Episode 44 | 3 Easy Steps to Authentic Student Engagement, with Lorraine Padilla from Apple Blossom Teachers @appleblossomteachers

          Have you ever wished that your students would just be more engaged with their learning?

          I get it. I've been there, too.

          But, what does engagement mean, anyway? And how can you be sure that you're getting true engagement, and not just compliance?

          This is what I talk through with Lorraine Padilla from Apple Blossom Teachers (this is a store follow link on TeachersPayTeachers, by the way).

          You're going to LOVE what she does with field trips, guest speakers, and authentic audiences for her students' projects!

            Have you ever done curriculum mapping with other teachers? If so, then you know just how powerful it can be in helping you plan, and helping your students learn according to the standards.

            This is definitely a pre-requisite for lesson planning, and a topic that is SO RELEVANT at the beginning of the school year!

            If you've never heard of curriculum mapping, you'll get sooo much from this conversation with Melissa Martinez from That One Cheerful Classroom (this is a store follow link on TeachersPayTeachers, by the way).

            • Episode 42 | How We REALLY Feel About Common Core Standards - Plus Tips for Teaching Financial Literacy, with Kelly Hogan from Mathematically Enthused

              When I originally brought Kelly Hogan from Mathematically Enthused (TPT store follow link) onto the show, I wanted her to share tips on how to create the epic and elaborate escape rooms with Google Sites,

              And while we DID cover that, we covered SO MUCH MORE.

              We shared how we really feel about the common core standards (spoiler alert: they're sorely lacking), and we shared our soapboxes about financial literacy and real-world learning.

              Kelly shared practical tips for upper elementary teachers who want to bring more S.T.E.A.M. (Science Technology Engineering Arts and Math) into their math instructional block.

              Wanna catch our sessions, plus SO MANY OTHER good ones?
