It is common knowledge that the brain has two hemispheres and that they are bridged by a bundle of nerves that travel across the corpus callosum. However, because this overpass exists, it doesn’t necessarily mean that it is always used. In fact, you will often hear of people claiming to be right or left brain dominant, and many people function quite well using predominantly “half a brain.” But if we could learn to unite the power of both hemispheres and assimilate experiences for optimal learning, wouldn’t that be great? This can be achieved by doing either cognitive or physical activities. Cognitive activities can be used as mental warmups or remedial activities. I like to use The Working Memory and Hemisphere Integration Bundle because it offers fun, game-like activities that help students exercise attention, strengthen working memory and engage both hemispheres of the brain. Many of the activities were created with the Stroop Effect in mind - named after John Ridley Stroop who first researched and published the effect in England in 1935. Later, his findings inspired the Stroop Test which has been shown to measure selective attention, cognitive flexibility, processing speed, and executive functions. Click on image to learn more Brain Gym by Dr. Paul E. Dennison and Smart Moves, by Dr. Carla Hannaford offers the physical tools, as well as some scientific research to back these claims. What they have uncovered, by uniting the fields of Applied Kinesiology, Educational Kinesiology, Developmental Optometry, Biology and Neuroscience, are movements or exercises that enhance communication across the hemispheres. Many of these activities continually cross the midline (an imaginary line that descends down through the body from the corpus callosum) so that both hemispheres are activated, and they must communicate for proper execution (See image 2). Other movements involve procedures that help to relax and refocus the mind and body by using acupressure or trigger points and other simple motions. The authors claim that the activities can help improve academics, focus, memory, mood, and even remediate learning disabilities such as dyslexia and dysgraphia. The bottom line is that many students remain physically inactive in classrooms for much of the day, and integrating simple movements between lessons, can provide the needed physical release.

TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "This resource was very helpful to students when introducing math concepts. Colourful and inviting. We used them to create our success criteria and ‘I can’ statements. During distance learning, I scanned them into our google classroom for students to reference. They were very thankful for the visual supports.” - Kathryn B. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Fantastic posters! I love the options and how informative they are. Students actively utilize the definitions during math time and it’s helpful to have an immediate reference while teaching. Students relied heavily on them at first and then, after a while, didn’t need them - progress! That makes it easy and reasonable for me to switch them out as content moves along, saving wall space.” - Kristina W. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “This is a wonderful resource that gives students math resources right in their notebook. My students are able to look back at all of the pages that they have added to their notebook for reference.” - Heather C. _______________________________________ ⭐️ BUNDLE & SAVE FOR A DISCOUNT⭐️ Purchase the 3rd Grade Math Poster and Exit Ticket Bundle to get these math posters and a set of 3rd grade exit tickets!

Delve into the serene beauty of the Scottish coast with this exquisite print, encapsulating the mystical charm of Achmelvich Beach's tidal zones. The piece exudes the elegance of Art Nouveau, a style renowned for its ornate lines and natural forms, which are flawlessly integrated into this depiction of Bladderwrack seaweed—a marine plant that not only thrives in the intertidal stretch but also manifests the very essence of Scotland's aquatic flora. In this artwork, the rich tapestry of the sea comes alive through a dazzling palette of greens, blues, and yellows, intermingled harmoniously to portray the dance of the Bladderwrack's elongated fronds and air-filled bladders against the swirling patterns of water. The meticulous attention to detail in the rendering of the seaweed's intricate textures and shapes invites the viewer to a closer inspection, whilst the stylised rock formations framing the scene provide a stark, grounding contrast to the fluid marine life. The interplay of colour and form culminates in a vista that is not just a mere representation, but a vivid, intimate exploration of the Scottish shores. By bringing this print into your space, not only do you honour the rich biodiversity of the Scottish seascape, but you also invite an artful melding of nature and design to grace your surroundings. This piece from our 'Scottish Flowers and Flora' collection is an evocative homage to the untamed beauty of nature, creating an atmosphere of both tranquillity and wonder wherever it is displayed.
Are any of these ineffective teaching methods still part of your practice? Time to reconsider.
Assessing a student’s learning is an integral part of teaching. An assessment aims to measure what your students have learned or will be learning in the future.

Tonight I'm enjoying the sound of wind chimes through the window as the winds shift and winter blows back in. It's cold outside, so I'm staying bundled up inside and checking in just long enough to share a bulletin board I made today, to complement a lesson I'll be starting tomorrow on friendship. And, before I unplug again, some reflections on friendship: Making and keeping friends is an important skill for children to learn. Not only are friends fun to have around, but healthy attachments are an important part of a child's experience in school. Children that can form friendships tend to adjust to the school experience better because they're more likely to develop self-esteem and build important social skills, like getting along, cooperating and problem-solving. Since students don't come to school with these skills neatly tucked away in their backpack, we must be modeling, teaching, and practicing them in our day-to-day interactions right alongside of and, dare I say it, woven into academic content. How do you help your children find friends that fit? Here are some goals that friends can work on as new relationship opportunities present themselves: *Cooperate and be kind to others. *Be willing to play fairly, take turns, and share. *Listen to others' ideas. *Apologize and forgive one another. *Express feelings appropriately. Use "I" statements to share how you're feeling and what you need from your friends. *Practice empathy to respond to friends' feelings in an understanding, helpful way. *Be honest and loyal to your friends. *Keep a positive attitude and hang out with friends who uplift you. *Show respect. Be the kind of friend that you would want to have. *Express gratitude and appreciation. Encourage your children to choose one of these goals at a time to work on as they learn how each one looks, sounds, and feels in their world at their age. Remember that how these goals play out will change slightly through the ages and stages. Talk with your child(ren) about the qualities that they look for in a friend. Ask questions like these: *How did you decide on those qualities? *What do you usually do to make a new friend? *What advice would you give a classmate who is having a hard time making friends? *Would you want to be your friend? Why or why not? *What qualities do you have to offer to someone that might make you a good-fit friend? To enrich the discussion, have students trace their hands onto a paper, left on one side, right on the other. On the right hand, have them write five strengths that they bring to a friendship. On the other hand, have them write five areas for growth, things that they could do better in their friendships. If you don't have access to paper-pen supplies, partners can put their hands together as if they're giving a high-five and take the Five Finger Friendship Challenge aloud. Finally, check out these resources for additional friendship tips: 1. Do Kids Need Friends? 2. The Art of Boosting Your Child's Friendship Skills 3. Fostering Friendships

Empowering and illuminating, The Ten Equations That Rule the World shows how math really can change your life. Is there a secret formula for getting rich? For going viral? For deciding how long to stick with your current job, Netflix series, or even relationship? This book is all about the equations that make our world go round. Ten of them, in fact. They are integral to everything from investment banking to betting companies and social media giants. And they can help you to increase your chance of success, guard against financial loss, live more healthfully, and see through scaremongering. They are known by only the privileged few—until now. With wit and clarity, mathematician David Sumpter shows that it isn't the technical details that make these formulas so successful. It is the way they allow mathematicians to view problems from a different angle—a way of seeing the world that anyone can learn.
