83: How to Engage Students Online and How to Ensure Equal Access
Today I sit down with Brian from the dynamic duo Wise Guys. Brian and I talk about how to engage students while online with connections, games, fun technology, and more. We also have a great discussion about the importance of providing equal access to education for all students. I hope you will join us.
Key Moments in the Show:
Kids aren't a test score. Kids are not based on assessments. Kids are creative. Kids are unique, and they need time to be able to have that. If you start a school year by just going full core, It's going to be disastrous. From day one, you're going to lose kids right away and the kids that are doing okay are going to be stressed out from the workload. And I really worry for districts that just want to go back and throw everything at students right away. That's not what they need right now. If you look at childhood trauma that's going on right now it is really increased significantly. And we need to be there for the whole child. Yes, academics are important. I think we all want our students to succeed. But in order to get there, you have to have that commitment to community and that commitment to caring. If you don't have caring and community, you can't succeed. ~Brian Wiltgen

82: The Magic of Hands-On Integrated Units in the Classroom
82: The Magic of Hands-On Integrated Units in the Classroom
Today I have a special guest Amy Mezni from Teaching Ideas 4U. And we are going to talk all about the magic of hands-on integrated units. Hope you stick around.
I met Amy because we both are presenting at Whole teacher Eclecticcon 2020, which takes place at the end of July. July 27 Is the start date. This conference is going to be an amazing experience. It is focused on the whole teacher and all parts of teaching. We very often talk about focusing on the whole child, we now are focusing on the whole teacher so every part of teaching will be addressed. We can sit back in our pajamas or by the pool and really take in this intentional focused professional development. It's also available for a full year, so you don't have to listen to all 60 sessions at once. That's a lot of sessions! You can kind of pick and choose what is appropriate for you and what's going to motivate and inspire you before the new school year. You can then save a couple for the next month and have some throughout the school year. You can have professional development all year, that would be pretty cool, wouldn't it? So I hope that you will join us at Whole teacher EclecticCon 2020.
Immediately upon enrollment, you will receive my free download of podcasting exit tickets for distance learning. So I'm really excited to offer that. Not to mention, you also receive over $125 worth of freebies when you register for Whole teacher EclecticCon 2020. So that's really cool. It is a $38 training and basically, you more than triple your investment for the materials that you receive. So hopefully you will join us. So let's get on with the show.

Welcome to One tire teacher, Episode 84- How to Add More Science Into Your Online or Physical Classroom with Rene Heinrich. I'm excited today to have Renee on the show. She is a wealth of information. She is coming from the store Science schoolyard. So Renee does a lot of focusing on science. She is very passionate about science. I love to talk to people that are passionate about the subject in which they are speaking. It's just awe-inspiring and motivating. It's exciting. So I hope that you will find value today as we talk about specifically what it is like for elementary school teachers and how sometimes we have such a hard time really getting to those content areas. Science is so important, and Renee gives us some really, really good strategies to fit in science time and hands-on learning. I hope you stick around.
