I am SO happy to have found WBT. I'm not sure how it even happened. One day I'm rolling through YouTube, and the next minute I'm seeing this awesome 1st grade class teaching....(wait for it....)EACH OTHER! Unbelievable!! So of course, I had to watch every single Whole Brain Teaching video I could find on YouTube over the course of the next few days, and download all the materials I could get my hands on.

I've been teaching for awhile, and though over the years I've naturally incorporated a few of the techniques of WBT (I've used a scoreboard for years now, and LOVE it!), I was so impressed by how seamless the class transitions were and the amazing direct instruction. I've yet to start teaching for the new school year, but I'm already a convert, and so excited to start the year out with WBT in my classroom.

Welcome to WBT!!! I'm so glad you found us! Whole Brain Teaching is truly amazing!

I have really been using the complete system for a year now and it made a huge difference. I feel like it makes my teaching more effective, my stress level much lower, and everyone has a lot of fun!

There is a chat tomorrow night. Check it out:

DorianT,

Welcome to WBT! I, too, have been using WBT for a full year. I love it, it has truly changed my teaching for the better.

I can't wait to herar how your year goes.

Good luck!

Dorian, that mirrors the experience I had midway through last year. I'm looking forward to going WBT full on this year.

Any way to watch the Webcast w/o flash?

Welcome aboard Dorian! You are going to love WBT! I used it the entire year last year and my students loved it! The best part was amazing the administration! I can't wait to learn so much more and implement it this year. You're off to a great start just viewing the videos. Keep in touch with all of us on the forum as we grow and learn together! Let me know if you have any questions. I work with 3rd and 4th grade learning support. Hope to see you live on the chat tonight!
