Reptilian-(lower brain) fight or flight part of the brain, tells you to eat sleep etc.
Limbic brain (Middle)-emotional meltdown, hissy fit, where you experience emotion
Mammalian (Frontal lobe)-higher order thinking, ability to have empathy, teaching-where we are teaching at school,
Emotional centre drives the learning-turn fear into fun!
"students that laugh more learn more"
High risk situation-putting your hand up. Try popcorn style, students pop their ideas-respond with thank you after each suggestion.
- Use think, pair, share.
- wait time-3 seconds
Listening-we have to teach students to be great listenings (listening and understanding with empathy)
-need to teach it explicitly
-Pause, paraphrase, probes-(inquiry/clarify)
Listening activity-in buddies, pose a question a and get one buddy just to talk and one to listen. While the person is talking the other buddy has to be thinking about pausing, paraphrasing and probing.
Encourage students to use great language, teachers need to model great language. Predict, compare, analyse.
