  • Summary

  • Math intervention, writing intervention, neurobiology, and cognitive-based learning - Jonily Zupancic and Cheri Dotterer are sharing how to incorporate them into your classroom. Jonily is a secondary math teacher and instructional coach for math K-12. Cheri is an occupational therapist specializing in neurology-based treatment across the lifespan and a Strategy-based Interventionist. Jonily secretly calls Cheri her Lesson Plan Whisperer because Cheri is always in her head, reminding her of the foundations of development before academics begin. They met in 2018 and have been talking ever since. Together, they have discovered the Miracle Math Classroom. This classroom embeds all math standards from Kindergarten to twelfth grade, plus neuro-based interventions that improve proficiency and boost student engagement. Both gifted and learning support students thrive using the interventions they share, plus all students in between. Using cognitive enhancing techniques strategically placed in the lesson plan, students learn more and enjoy school more, and fewer students get removed from critical instruction for Tier Three Interventions. Jonily has discovered how to teach all Kindergarten through algebra math standards using twelve, that’s right, twelve Reference Tasks. They include the Pizza Problem, 120-Chart, Paper Folding, Making Rectangles, Quick Dots, Locker Problem, Jesse and Kay, Geoboard, Candy Problem, Paint Problem, Staircase, and the Function Machine. Cheri uses Body-Brain Anchors to ignite the flame inside everyone’s brain for learning. Whether a person is five or 90, her strategy-based interventions will ignite that flame. These Brain-Body Anchors include the Handstand Flip, Interlaced Bilateral Integration, and the Body Sentence Alphabet. Together, they connect the puzzle behind math instruction and instructional delivery alongside these cognitive-enhancing activities to maximize math education for all students. Join us live on the third Saturday of the month, sans July, for the math behind the Reference Task. Every live event is approximately 2.5 contact hours. The first 30-ish minutes become this podcast. To hear the entire training, join our membership program. Please note: we will not record on holiday weekends. Join our mailing list for updates on dates.

    Vestibular system and its impact on learning and academics: S1 E7
    May 7 2024
    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. ******************************************************************************This video podcast is NOT sponsored.
