37 Days Remain in 2024
A Question and an Image to Spark Creativity during the #last100days2024
Welcome to my #last100dayproject!
There are 37 days left in 2024.
When I was an education coach many years ago I conducted weekly professional development based on school and teacher data. I learned from a brilliant woman in my first district, Dr. Rita Brodnax, about brain related education practices that I used my entire career.
One of these concepts was Brain Drainers. These are transitional activities that take less than 3 minutes to help you unfocus from what you were doing and refocus on the meeting/learning/workshop you are preparing to engage in.
Some were simple and some more complex. It often reminded me of the anticipatory set from the Madeline Hunter lesson planning format.
This video is a Snickers commercial that has always tickled me :“Steve was delicious.” It is ridiculous and “sticky”.
Enjoy!
Today’s questions: If you could place an order from the universe, what would your order be?
Today’s image:
For the last 100 days, I invite you to join me and experiment.
Each day for the remainder of the year I will share a question and a photo of an item.
You are welcome to write into the question and/or the photo.
Or you can start a new ritual or experiment of your own creation.
I would love to hear about your progress on whatever project you want to begin!
**NOTE**
I do not share drafts of work online because most publications considered this published. You are more than welcome to share your piece in the comments, an excerpt or an update.
I hope for the comments to be a community for us to share these wins.
