 As a teacher, I try to sprinkle something special into each of my lessons. Whether it's an intriguing lesson hook, a crazy conversation starter, a refreshing brain break, or a clever closing, adding novelty and variety keeps students engaged and makes teaching a lot more fun. I've whiffed up a workshop for teachers where I share my collection of teaching strategies and tools that help me reach learners at any age and grade level. And yes, while it usually involves technology, I emphasize the reasons the activities are affected. I've got so much to share that the tasty teaching workshop could be three days, but I'm flexible and can present it as a one- or two-day workshop. Or the components make for brilliant breakout sessions. Contact me and we can discuss the details about bringing me to your school, organization, or conference. Participants will leave with lots of ideas they can implement right away. I also provide digital handouts so participants have a reference and a refresher for all those delicious activities and tools we explore during the workshop. So keep me in mind for your next PD day, or recommend me to the people who make decisions about professional learning. It would be most excellent to cook up some PD with you.
