Episoder

  • In this Tier 1 Interventions podcast episode, Cheri shares the concept of "flow" as a transformative approach to classroom learning. By unpacking the neuroscience of brain waves, the importance of sleep, and responsive teaching methods, she and Jonily explore how educators can adapt their strategies to create engaging and effective lessons. The discussion also highlights practical techniques like brain interruption activities and strategies for embedding responsive teaching into your daily routine. Join us to discover how to move beyond traditional methods and embrace a new way of teaching that benefits all students.

    MISSION
    We are committed to IMPACT the journey of 200K teachers (3M students) by 2030 so they can reignite their passion for teaching.
    We believe:
    Inclusion: Full inclusion is essential for student continuity and success.
    Metacognition: Student knowledge base must be uncovered before teaching begins.
    Perseverance: Students' curiosity and passion for learning must be ignited daily for academic rigor.
    Adaptability: Education is unique for every student, and intervention strategies for each student are universal.
    Confidence: Confidence is the core of learning. Every student must be motivated to achieve focus and flow.
    Transcendence: Education is the journey of a lifetime. Experiences must be repeated frequently to unleash growth potential.

  • Vestibular system and its impact on learning and academics.

    In today's "Tier 1 Interventions" episode, we dive into the fascinating world of proprioception and the vestibular system, exploring their critical roles in educational settings. Hosts Cheri Dotterer and Jonily Zupancic are joined by clients to unravel how these sensory systems impact learning and classroom dynamics.

    Cheri Dotterer emphasized the crucial role of proprioception and the vestibular system in learning, while several clients shared their takeaways and strategies to help children. The connection between the vestibular system and academic performance is essential to unleash students' full potential.

    Cheri shared her experience with reading difficulties due to vision impairment and connecting it to her vestibular system and the impact of the open classroom in fifth grade. She shares how addressing vestibular system issues improves focus, reading, and overall well-being.

  • In the latest Tier 1 Interventions podcast episode, we had the pleasure of delving deep into the often overlooked but crucially important sensory strategies that can significantly enhance classroom learning. Joined by my co-host Jonily Zupancic, we explored proprioceptive input—a key element that can transform the educational experience, especially for students who struggle with memory and recall.

    What is Proprioception?

    Proprioception refers to the sensory input that tells us about the position of our body parts and the effort needed in movement. It’s like a hidden sense that helps the brain process how much pressure to apply, for instance, in holding a pencil or stabilizing oneself in a chair. In this episode, we discussed how proprioceptive activities, such as carrying books, using therapy balls, or even simple tasks like brushing hair or squeezing putty, can prime the body for learning.

    Classroom Strategies That Work

    We highlighted several practical strategies that teachers can implement right in the core classroom settings:
    1. Dynamic Seating and Movement: Encouraging small movements, like pushing a cart of books or using a therapy ball as a seat, can help wake up the body’s sensory receptors, making students more receptive to learning.
    2. Task-Based Activities: Incorporating activities that involve squeezing, tearing, and cutting can engage the proprioceptive sense during more sedentary tasks, helping to maintain focus and engagement.
    3. Structured Physical Tasks: Simple structured tasks, such as wall push-ups or carrying a set of books to another classroom, offer joint compression that helps ground students and prepares them mentally for academic tasks.


    The Impact on Learning

    Proprioceptive input is essential for physical coordination and cognitive processes, particularly memory and retention. When students engage in proprioceptive activities, they are more likely to remember and recall information because their bodies and brains are fully activated and prepared for the task at hand.

    Engage, Educate, Empower

    The core message of our discussion is clear: by integrating sensory strategies into daily classroom activities, educators can create a more inclusive and effective learning environment. These interventions are not just beneficial for students with specific sensory needs; they enhance learning for all students, making the classroom a dynamic, engaging, and supportive space for everyone.

  • In this episode, co-hosts Cheri Dotterer and Jonily Zupancic explored the intricate relationship between the sensory system and learning in the classroom. Their discussion shed light on how educators can harness the power of the senses to enhance memory retention and learning among students.

    The Role of the Cerebellum in Learning


    Cheri Dotterer opened the conversation by highlighting the importance of the cerebellum, a part of the brain that controls many functions and is directly related to learning and memory. Understanding the cerebellum's role can help educators create more effective teaching strategies that cater to the brain's natural processes.


    Sensory Systems and Their Impact on Learning


    The podcast delved into the five primary sensory systems—smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch—and their impact on learning. Each sense contributes uniquely to the learning process, and understanding these contributions can help educators create a more inclusive and effective learning environment.

    Smell: The olfactory system has a direct pathway to the brain's limbic system, which is involved in emotion and memory. This unique connection means that smells in the classroom can profoundly impact students' emotional states and their ability to retain information.Taste: The gustatory system, or sense of taste, can also influence attention and memory. For example, the act of chewing gum or sucking on a mint can stimulate the brain and enhance focus during learning activities.Hearing: Auditory processing is crucial for understanding verbal instructions and absorbing new information. Educators can enhance auditory learning by repeating essential information differently and ensuring the classroom environment is conducive to listening.Vision: Visual aids are powerful learning tools, as they can help students make connections between abstract concepts and concrete images. When it comes to explaining complex ideas, a picture truly is worth a thousand words.Touch: The tactile system plays a role in hands-on learning, where physical manipulation of objects can reinforce concepts and improve memory retention.


    Creating a Sensory-Friendly Classroom

    The discussion emphasized the importance of creating a sensory-friendly classroom environment that accommodates all learners. Sensory classroom environments include being mindful of potential sensory overload, providing opportunities for movement and breaks, and incorporating a variety of sensory experiences into lessons.

    The Power of Multisensory Learning


    The podcast concluded with a reminder of the power of multisensory learning. By engaging multiple senses simultaneously, educators can enhance students' understanding and retention of information. This approach is particularly beneficial for students with learning differences, as it provides various pathways for information processing.


    Conclusion


    Cheri Dotterer and Jonily Zupancic's insights in the "Tier 1 Interventions" podcast underscore the importance of considering the sensory system in educational practices. By understanding and leveraging the connections between the senses and learning, educators can create more effective and inclusive learning environments that cater to the diverse needs of all students.
