Student Success: Perceptual Motor Skills
Tuesday Dec 06, 2022
Tuesday Dec 06, 2022
Perceptual Motor Skills are so important because these functions are necessary to plan and make decisions. Students must plan and make decisions for every paper or problem that they work to solve. Eliminating the parts of class time that develop these skills will literally handicap student growth, development and academic success.

Academic Success
Monday Dec 05, 2022
Monday Dec 05, 2022
For students to reach their full potential and greatest academic success, I must consider more than just the curriculum information I need them to learn. I must realize that perceptual motor, trauma, spiritual, cognitive, executive and neurological processes all work together for academic success.
Often a student is handicapped by one or more of these functions that is under or over developed. Students need to be able to function as a member of their classroom community to achieve full student success.

Prior knowledge can set a student up for success by giving enough information that he feels comfortable continuing the learning scenario with interest. Then, after the learning process, reflecting on the information learned can solidify and enhance the student's learning.
I share one way to go through this process with one age group of students in this episode of The Teacher's Key.
How are you creating lasting impressions with your students that deepen their learning experience?

Tuesday Oct 04, 2022
Do you find yourself looking for balance when teaching students how to have conversations and not just being silly and loud when given the opportunity to talk during class?
