Thanks for your comments. These teachings methods have been a huge success at our school. I'm a parent at the school, as well as the parent who maintains this website. The school started using these teaching methods with my son two years ago. He has responded very well, and it results in a more organized classroom as a whole. As a parent, I'm a big fan of having this in the classroom. My son has performed better in school since we've put this in place. He likes it, too.

I love how you teach! Inside voices, but they focus well

Kayla 🎉is the best of my 😢😮😅😊😂❤❤

I love how teachers bash each other. It's so professional and supportive... I see a class that is engaged, happy, and learning. She's not screaming at them, which is the tactic I see used the most to get class cooperation. If this isn't YOUR way of teaching- fine, but quit bashing other teachers for the way that works with them.

i am a teacher and I already practiced this WBT whole years. And it's worked! i really love this video of you.

Whole Brain Teaching is AMAZING! I began my teaching career in the US & now I teach in England where I'm introducing it to my class of Year 3s (2nd grade equivalent). There is nothing that grabs their attention more and my pupils have SO much fun as we go through lessons using WBT. For all the people criticising, what you don't realise is that repitition is what helps retention & kids are so much more enthusiastic now about their learning. This vid is only short examples of the bits of WBT.

I love this! All the kids are engaged! I'm sure that this is just the whole group teaching part and there are small group or individual teaching moments. I will be doing this this fall! Can't wait!

Love this WBT vid. I am planning to begin using this in my class this year. Your students seem to be engaged, learning for mastery and happy. Keep up the good work!

Kids love repitition at that age. They may sound like robots but they're honestly having fun.

i really learned many great things today...THANK YOU!!!

I can't wait until I started teaching

HEllo, I LOVE; LOVE LOVE your class, is so dynamic, so interesting. I can see how children produce language in very motivating and fun way. Amazing

you have to be an english teacher to critize this excellent miss this is a very good way of teaching kids . presentation, practice and production. l work in mexico city as an english teacher with kids and in fach i would like to teach like you. i use 50 percent english and 50 percent spanish as you notice our mother tongue is spanish. but i try to do my best.

Great job!

I do think this is a great method of teaching... the kids ARE getting everything you tell them and there is no room for not paying attention... but, I also agree this shouldn't be the ONLY method of teaching!! Infact I've found the Sudbery and Montesori methods (which are the complete opposite) to work GREAT with kids!!!

Takara raises her left hand to speak and has been doing things you'd notice an instinctive side doing, therefore you'd notice this girl doing much worse in school exams because she doesn't memorize many things she has to but the ones she figures interesting or useful, but very very good in the things she's interested in (neuroscience)

Hi Stephanie, I noticed that you're a 'gonnabe' teacher, I just wanted to introduce you to Armis, and some of the benefits of playing Armis: * Armis develops critical thinking skills. * Armis builds self-esteem, skills are certain and measurable, not conditioned on any financial, academic, or social class. * Armis inspires you to be inventive. * Armis emboldens you to learn and understand complex * Armis spurs you to plan for and attain success. * Armis sharpens your analytic and cognitive mind

Great video and lovely teacher.. Planning to apply this method of teaching the next semester..

as a teacher wannabe, there is never going to be a perfect way to teach, no matter how we do it there will be a critic, I think this is a great foot in the right direction over just didactic teaching.

I loved this video, I have a question how did you introduce wbt to your class? I don't know where to start!

interesting,effective and important for teacher and T.A.

Wow these students or respectful and quite and listings to you you doing a good job

she's doing great

Excellent

it goes... "there's Sunday and there's Monday, there's Tuesday and there's Wednesday, there's Thursday and there's Friday, and then there's Saturday...Days of the week/Days of the week (etc). So Sunday is First!

WOAH! Rule number 5! If students are taught to "please" their teacher they are not developing intrinsic self control. I wonder how they act when the dear teacher is not present? I guess this is the difference between teacher centered, and student centered education.

I cannot ever imagine teaching a class like this... this seems really insane. What about student-centered learning?? YIKES!

Nice--these kiddos should be all set to join the military or work in a factory.

This is what I call indocrination for mindless obedience for the sake of obedience itself and controlling behavior (so-called classroom management) at the expense of the students' creative, critical, and higher-oder thinking skills. If this works for kids and they seem happy is because they like talking, moving around, singing, and immitating others. Effective classroom management is, as evidenced by this video, not necessarily synonymous with empowering, liberatory, democratic education.

It started with "There's Sunday and there's Monday..."

omg the first one one it had more votes

This is why I dropped out of school. To be honest, I never stopped being like this until college.

Hand hand and eyes please comment back

I would never use this. They sound like programmed robots.

what would happen if a child had an original thought? I get that it works for rote learning but what proportion of the day would this work for then? This really shocks me that we can treat children in such a mindless way. We all have our methods for getting attention but it shoud be left there - someone has taken this way too far!

Where is the relationship with your individual and unique students? This is depressing and makes me sick.

I can't stand this method of teaching...the kids are acting like robots and are they really learning or just doing what the teacher says. this sucks :(
