It’s hard to believe it’s been just over a year since @teachergoals.bsky.social helped bring the Body & Brain Brilliance Manual to life! Grateful for Robert Beltz, Dustin Springer, Crystal Williams & Angie Zara for pouring so much heart into this work!!!!

Short, intentional moments of connection calm the brain + support learning. Try weaving 3 sets of 3 mins into your day!!!

Co-regulation is our biological imperative.
We need the presence of others to feel safe, and it’s what makes self-regulation possible!!

Underneath every behavior is a need to be seen and heard!
In Indiana, the return to grading system adds MORE pressure for educators and families.

Taking just a few minutes for a focused attention practice, a small ritual, or a check-in with nervous systems makes learning more sustainable!

That’s the kind of learning lawmakers cannot legislate away!!!!!

Bellwork, morning meeting…whatever we call those first few minutes, they really matter. I recently shared how I love asking students, “What did you bring from the pharmacy this morning?” (You’ll see exactly what I mean after watching the video!)

As you step into this new school year, remember that co-regulation is not about rewarding negative behavior. It's about supporting your cortex and your students' cortex...making sure your conversations and responses come from a place of steadiness!

When our focus is deliberate, intentional, and practiced, it shifts how we see students! It shifts how we interact with one another, and how we speak to ourselves with compassion!

It’s still July, but many feel the quiet pull of a new school year. Change feels uncomfortable because our nervous systems need patterned, repetitive experiences to feel safe. It’s not willpower..it’s biology! I explore this in my Edutopia article below! www.edutopia.org/article/refr...
The Power of Reframing to ‘Rewire’ Students’ Brains
Teachers can use the principles of neuroplasticity to help students be aware of thought patterns that are no longer serving them and begin to take risks in the classroom.

I’m excited to share our additional practices for the 180 Day Scope and Sequence!
