On My Way To School with Adam Peterson

This one might ruffle some feathers. But...if it does, ask yourself - why?

In the classroom we need to remember that technology is just a tool and resource for us. The teacher should be the one teaching!

Stop putting the word JUST in front of your title or career choice. You are so much more than JUST a teacher.

Taking time for yourself, your family, your friends and your passion is more important than ever before!

It is so easy to focus on negative things going on around us, but it's so much more rewarding when we focus on the positives! Take the advice from my son.

I've been preaching this statement for years in keynotes and seminars - "Every kid is good at something!" As teachers, we need to figure out what that thing is and expose it so that kid feels empowered and ready to reach their goals!

Have you ever caught yourself saying, "I'll start on Monday"? I do it ALL THE TIME! But what are we waiting for exactly?

Brittany is an elementary school teacher turned stay at home mom of 3 kids ages 7 and under. Her oldest son, Austin, was born extremely premature and was at risk for developmental delays. She began filling their days with simple and engaging learning activities for him to do at home, working on essential early childhood development skills and saw first hand how powerful and effective play-based learning is.

She started her instagram account, @stayathomeactivitymom, in March 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic, to share fun activity ideas with family and friends. Within a few months, it grew to a few thousand, and the rest is history! Stay at Home Activity Mom is still an instagram account sharing free activity ideas, product recs, teaching and parenting tips, and more! She also has a website where she provides tons of educational resources for parents- downloadable preschool units to do at home, subscription activity kits available for purchase, individual kits and activities, sensory jars, and more!

 Brittany feels so lucky that she gets to play a small part in nurturing childrens’ curiosity and cultivating a love of learning!
