About
Help middle schoolers engage in the classroom before it's too late!
For many educators, middle school is the last chance to put in place strong, positive learning patterns that will last through high school and beyond. Based on Rich Allen's "Green Light" education strategies, this book takes what researchers have discovered about how the adolescent brain learns best and shows how those discoveries directly relate to effective classroom teaching. Now you can engage all students, even unmotivated ones, by applying these four principles of brain-based learning:
• Build and maintain trust
• Create a collaborative community
• Take a TEAMing approach
• Prime the positive environment
