What You Can AccomplishWhat You Can Accomplish
A positive, effective classroom
A classroom where learning is fun for you and the students
Learning based on solid pedagogical theory
Higher retention, greater involvement
WARNING: You may experience the danger of irritated colleagues.

Brain Based LearningBrain Based Learning
What do we mean by brain based learning?
Do we know for sure this is really brain based?
Does it matter as long as it works?

Brain Based LearningBrain Based Learning Your brain is made of clusters of specialized
nerve cells called neurons.
Each part of your brain has a specific job.
The more parts of your brain you can engage to learn new information, the more powerful the memories you create.
![Page 5: Whole Brain Teaching Classroom Management and Brain Based Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d345503460f94a0a8b2/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Sensors on Maximum!Sensors on Maximum!
There are three main sensory inputs for everyone to learn through….
- Visual (what you see)
- Auditory (what you hear)
- Kinesthetic (movement, gestures and body language)

Making MemoriesMaking Memories
Memories aren’t made in any one place. Many systems work together.
At first they are labile, or changeable.
Over time they can become permanent...but that can take years!
![Page 8: Whole Brain Teaching Classroom Management and Brain Based Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d345503460f94a0a8b2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Making MemoriesMaking Memories
When you are teaching something new the information has to come through the Reticular Activating System (hippocampus and amygdala).
If students are stressed it can interfere with their ability to learn.

The Five RulesThe Five Rules
Rule 1: Follow directions quickly!
Rule 2: Raise you hand for permission to speak.
Rule 3: Raise your hand for permission to leave your seat.
Rule 4: Make smart choices.
Rule 5: Keep your dear teacher happy!

The Scoreboard GameThe Scoreboard Game
The students score points for following directions.
They lose points when they do not.
How can a student rebel against you? By doing what you asked them to do!
![Page 17: Whole Brain Teaching Classroom Management and Brain Based Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d345503460f94a0a8b2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The Scoreboard GameThe Scoreboard Game
When the students score they get to celebrate with a “One Second Party”
When they lose a point they still sort of celebrate with a “Mighty Groan”.
![Page 18: Whole Brain Teaching Classroom Management and Brain Based Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d345503460f94a0a8b2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The Scoreboard GameThe Scoreboard Game
You can award or take away points both for individual and group behavior.
I usually try to award for either, and mainly take away for the group.
The scoreboard game works best if you connect some sort of reward to it.
Homework, games, instant game, free seating, free time, etc.
![Page 19: Whole Brain Teaching Classroom Management and Brain Based Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d345503460f94a0a8b2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Independents: Little Clique of Trouble!Independents: Little Clique of Trouble!
Students only play in the Independents for one day, or until they ask to rejoin the class.
Independents get a separate scoreboard. They get a negative mark when anyone in their group acts out, and a negative one any time anyone in the class group acts out.

support of the rest of the class.
You are about to take that away.
“Please, Stop!”

Immune to Punishment: The Bullseye GameImmune to Punishment: The Bullseye Game
Only for students who are immune to punishment .
It will only be played with you, and one student.
No one else needs to know what it is for.
Work with your player to choose a goal, and identify the behavior that needs fixing.

Teach!-OK! MethodTeach!-OK! Method
You are programmed to remember information given in an excited tone.
You remember more if you gesture, or see others do it.
Your own gestures provide a kinesthetic anchor for your memories.
Retention will increase dramatically.
![Page 26: Whole Brain Teaching Classroom Management and Brain Based Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d345503460f94a0a8b2/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Teach!-OK! MethodTeach!-OK! Method
This is all about collaborative learning.
The teacher introduces what is to be learned, claps to engage first, then says “Teach!”
The students respond the same way the teacher did and respond “OK!”
![Page 27: Whole Brain Teaching Classroom Management and Brain Based Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d345503460f94a0a8b2/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Mirror!Mirror!
Say “Mirror me,” or “Mirror my gestures,” when you introduce new ideas.
Emphasize that mirror means to copy you exactly- volume, excitement, gestures, everything.
![Page 28: Whole Brain Teaching Classroom Management and Brain Based Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d345503460f94a0a8b2/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Teach!-OK! MethodTeach!-OK! Method
The student partners (two ideally) turn to face one another.
Each student teaches his/her partner the information to be learned.
They should use eye contact, excited voices, and big gestures!

I hate to say it, but…..I hate to say it, but…..
WE TALK TOO MUCH...at one time, that is.
You can only keep 7 items in short term memory.
3 to 5 items is ideal for young people.
Use Teach-OK FREQUENTLY to reinforce learning, and move items to long term memory

Drop your lecture items to one minute to one and a half minutes or less per item.

Taking the sting out of a wrong answerTaking the sting out of a wrong answer
If someone tries a question and misses it, have the whole class tell them “It’s cool!”
This removes the fear of being wrong.
Have them try again, give clues, or break it down if needed.

Some may hesitate at first, but keep at it. They will remind you if you do not give them their WOO!

Writing after Teach-OK or micro-lecture
Teach-OK with concepts from videos
Assign vocabulary homework, one term per student. They must come back the next day able to teach their term to the class. Their classmates write the term after they learn it.

You do not have to use Whole Brain Teaching instruction methods every day.
Choose individual Whole Brain Teaching techniques you want to use and build them into your lessons.
The classroom management component should be used every day for consistency.

Whole Brain Teaching is not perfect, and will not solve all your problems, though it will lessen them mightily.
Most Whole Brain Teachers get really excited and try to do too much. Then disappointment sets in.
To avoid this….

Add only one or two basic elements at a time.
Practice these until you feel comfortable and then add another one or two.
If you have questions, or you feel something did not go right read, read again, and then re-read the free downloadable e-books.
