This week on the Teaching Champions Podcast we are joined by Joshua Stamper. He is an author, podcaster, former administrator, and a training and development specialist for the Teach Better Team.

Topics Discussed:
1. How can we be creative in our positions and not just revert back to traditional practices.

2. Greet students as they come into class. This has positive effect on attention and behavior.

3. Incorporate brain breaks and relationships circles.

4. Restorative circles

5. It’s about teaching the behavior rather than just punish the behavior.

6. Empathy is not a weakness. (Exercise where most of us were never to the principal)

7. Everyone wants connection.

8. Time in vs. Time out

9. For any learner to get knowledge to the brain you have to go through the heart.

10. When something works share it out.

11. Think outside the box to help your students out.

12. It’s a must to take care of yourself.
