Teaching is a second career for me and I am in my 6th year and my first year in upper elementary-3rd grade. I know my classroom mgt skills are lacking and I am eager to implement your strategies because I am also desperate to ensure my students are all learning. I love the gesturing in concert with learning because it involves kinethestic processing. The repetition is great for auditory learners and the drama wonderful for creating emotional connections to learning. My only concern is that I am very uncoordinated. You laugh but I have never been able to smoothly replicate even the simplest finger play. I'm afraid I will have students rolling in the isles when I say rule number 2 and my hand shows 4 fingers! What can those of us who have faulty wiring do to compensate?

I used a bit of Power Teaching with my First Graders when I was teaching in the US. Now I have moved to the UK and I am doing supply (substitute) teaching for the time being. Can you think of the best ways to use this when you're only with each class for a day or two?

Great work! I had my doubts about using the method with my students (I live in Sweden and they tend to be shy and quiet) but it surprised me. I'm passing it on to all my colleagues.

Good job! I really enjoy the videos. I'm a 5th grade teacher in Los Angeles!

Hey Chris,
I'm wondering how Power Teaching techniques would work for students with accomodations, such as students with vision, speech or language processing problems.
