And the Results Are In!

     I haven't posted in a few days as I was at a resort and spa for the weekend celebrating my fiance's birthday with my in-laws-to-be! It was a wonderful holiday but I'm now back to the world of laundry, homework and a staggering 30+ emails to catch up with.

like, whole brain teaching
I am happy to report that our first Whole Brain Teaching Wednesday was a fabulous success with several hundred people checking out the post! The WBT website has so many amazing strategies and resources that I will be able to highlight different ones on Wednesdays for quite some time. Thank you to everyone that checked out the posts and, as always, I look forward to your opinions and stories on these strategies.

  UPDATE! I have received an email back from my cooperating teacher and it is good news! As some of you remember, I was really nervous about what my cooperating teacher's opinion on WBT would be. I was nervous that maybe he would not want me using different classroom management strategies in his classroom while I was a guest there. My fears, however, were all for not as he responded back that he was excited about having this new strategy in his classroom, yay! He was very supportive and encouraging and I hope that we are both able to learn a lot during my time in his class.

    I am so glad to hear that your cooperating teacher is ok with you using WBT. I have just started using WBT in the last two weeks and am also lucky enough that my other 4th grade teacher is willing to try some of the techniques!

    Good luck,
    Sacha

    I am so glad to have another WBT checking out the blog, especially someone that is new to it like me :)I checked out your blog as well and shared it on my twitter. I hope that we can learn a lot from each other as we go along!

    Wow that is great news that you are going to be able to implement this while student teaching! Maybe YOU will be able to teach your cooperating teacher something and he will carry it on after you're gone!
