Whole Brain Teaching The Podcast

Deep Red Thoughts

In this episode, Rhonda and I once again sit down with Coach Chris Biffle, founder of Whole Brain Teaching, to talk about the 4 thoughts common to teachers of Beloved Rascals.  This week we are focusing on Deep Red Thoughts (also known as Dark Red Thoughts).  These thoughts can be debilitating!  Be sure to listen in order to recognize what they are and how we easily fall into this thought pattern.  Coach makes us aware of these types of thoughts, but as the weeks progress in this series, he will show us how to change our way of thinking so we can better take care of ourselves as teachers.

Thank you so much for downloading and sharing this podcast with other teachers and administrators!  We could never express how thankful and appreciative we are of YOU!!

WBT and Dual Language Classrooms with Crystal Caballero

What a complete pleasure for Rhonda and I to sit down with Executive Board Member, Crystal Caballero, to discuss how WBT is used in her dual language classroom.  This podcast shows the power of WBT to cross languages so ALL students can learn!  We are thankful for our time with Crystal and whether or not you have a dual language classroom, you will gleen so much from this podcast!  We can't wait to have Crystal come back in the future and share more of her WBT journey with us!
