Ready, Set, TEACH

For this episode, Rebecca was inspired by a course she was taking which was all about the BRAIN and LEARNING! Rebecca shares information she learned regarding the POWER and IMPACT emotions have on learning.  Rebecca explains what YOU can do on an individual level in your classroom, which is focusing on establishing a POSITIVE LEARNING/CLASSROOM CLIMATE that encourages students to feel those positive emotions. 

Rebecca learned much of this information from a book called Neuro Teach.  You can find it HERE!
