Yesterday, as planned, I used the new PDF from Coach B on the 5 Basics of Whole Brain Teaching (from WBCollege!) *see previous Goals post.
My kids really enjoyed it. I have several that can't seem to get enthusiastic about using the gestures! But, I keep trying!
After the first three questions, I thought how cool it would be to video my kids doing this lesson! So I set up my iPad on the side of the classroom and kept on teaching. *No prepping the students, notice the waves! Hee hee.
I really enjoyed using the PDF lesson as a review. I'd totally recommend it to anyone wanting to try out WBT! It is very scripted and fun. They kids loved the graphics and were thrilled to find out Coach B was a REAL person!
I also explained to them how they've been learning with their WHOLE brain this year...and college students do the same things!
They thought that was pretty neat.
I completed the entire lesson in one session...which was a bit much for my first graders. I'd break it up next time. There was too much teaching involved, with too much information (all 5 questions at once!).
All in all, it was a hit. We critiqued ourselves afterwards and have really gotten motivated to do better!
It also gave me a good shot in the arm! I had over 30 tallies on the scoreboard! Yeah!
