For those who are not educators, but may have questions or concerns about this video, this technique is only intended for Classroom Management. It is not an academic lesson, but rather an introduction on how to use a system called Whole Brain Teaching for classroom management. When you are a teacher managing an average of 14-25 four, five, six, or seven-year-olds you need to be able to maintain their attention and engagement in order for instruction (real learning) to take place.This can be extremely challenging to most teachers. I go around the country observing and assessing classrooms and teaching efficiency, and the most profound learning happens in classrooms where students know their routines, expectations, and consistently practice good behavior. If you are a teacher you know this doesn't happen on it's own, instead you practice intentionality by taking the right steps to establish routines, expectations, and norms for good behavior. In classrooms where behavior is extremely poor the teacher spends the majority of her time putting out fires around the classroom instead of actually teaching. The system in the video above helps teachers, especially those who are new to the profession, learn some great tips on keeping classroom behavior in check so that real learning can take place. :)
Gaby Lozano....thank you for informing the ignorant! Those who regurgitate what the anti-public schools propaganda machine has fed them for nearly 30 years.
As a teacher that works frequently with 1st, 2nd and 3rd graders, i find this a really helpful insight in classroom management strategies. I don't know if the criticisms come from people with little to no experience teaching young children, but i heavily suspect it so. In other words, the criticisms seem to come from people either completely ignorant of the real classroom context in K, 1st and 2nd grades (even maybe 3rd grade), people that don't get the point of the video... or both.
+Carol Van Pala The same worthless stuff that kids were learning before, only now, they can learn it while gesturing and acting like robotic clowns under the auspices of adults who unwittingly are stunting their academic growth.
@@stuartcarroll7156 Sadly, there are college professors that incorporate these routines, based on pseudo-scientific conclusions about the brain learning through mimicry. Though that can be true, I don't think this is how that statement ought to be taken. Behaviors can be learned in such ways, but the internal processes that take place during critical thinking cannot be replicated through mimicry of physical actions.
At what point do the children get to digest information and critically think about information? Where in the world is child autonomy in such a classroom? I am not saying the teaching is bad, I just can not see how we raise kids to discover how they learn best, if they are forced to act like pre-programmed robots. The more robotic I am, the better for me. I am not comfortable with the underlying message kids get here.
WBT is a way to get information in to children's heads. This is just a introductory lesson. Once the programming for how to input information is established, like a road, information can be input better. They then can use this knowledge to infer and make creative decisions. I thought it was stupid too, until I saw it in action at my school. It is a very fast way for kids to learn things quickly.
This is the first step. Kids are taught critical thinking in subsequent steps. You can't cover everything in a five-minute video. You can't teach anything if you don't have the kids attention, and if you haven't noticed, most kids today have very short attention spans.
I can't stand the repetition of what the teacher says and does, let alone the bribery with the smiley and frowny faces. How is this going to teach kids autonomy, responsibility, functioning as a human in the real world. I find it gruesome to watch, super-depressing.
Controlling a group of kids in a school environment is super difficult. She's lucky that she has a small, affluent class. The entire schooling paradigm can't work without fascism.

There is something inhuman about these routines. Children need to behave and be attentive, but these robotic chants are too much.
@@stuartcarroll7156 Such engagement activities also tend to distract from the actual skills that students are supposed to be practicing, I find.

Thanks for sharing! I am implementing WBT tomorrow on our first day and needed some TIPS on how to introduce the components!
Thank you for modeling WBT. You were great!!!
I don't get it - what r they learning?

I love how at the beginning its like shes preparing them for college.
There are no stock phrases and routines in college. There is literally nothing in this that would prepare a human for college.

Great job. Children work with some of their so called multiple intelligences. Warm regards from Mexico.
Thank you for sharing this video. I always want to do WBT but never know how to start it.
Great job! I like the idea of having the Scoreboard on a lanyard. Very convenient.
I'm curious about the scoreboard as a necklace. It is just a lanyard? I can't tell.
Great lesson! Well taught
If these children watch this video today, they might laugh at themselves.😂
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Chris -- May I use this clip to help teachers get better?

This is a classroom management system not academics. A quick, fast engaging classroom management system allows students to learn more without issues.

This is idiotic. Kids aren't taught to think for themselves, but to be blind regurgitating zombies. Yuck.

it is also stupid.... and a waste of academic time mumbo jumbo....no wonder the US schools are down the sewer.
Good job, Miss Ohio 1st grade teacher! (However, mighty groan on our American flag being displayed on the wrong side of the classroom.)
This is fascism. lol
