Learning Objectives

  • Brain Basics

    Learn how brains work — yours and your students! Understand neuropsychology basics and how to apply this knowledge to the classroom.

  • Innie or Outie?

    Let’s determine together what innie brains and outie brains are and why that matters to educators when deciding which tools to use.

  • Not New Tools; New Ways

    Educators are inundated with new tools to use in the classroom to manage behavior, improve academic outcomes, and more. I don’t teach new tools. I teach you how to match the tools you already have to the brain type of each student for better results.

Who Is This Workshop Best For?

 

Dr. Sarah’s Raising Brains for Educators Workshop is for teachers, administrators, special education faculty, child study teams, para-professionals, and more!

“We’re not raising kids, we’re raising brains!”

What People Are Saying

 

“Learning about innie and outie brains was valuable. I use the breathing technique but was using it for an outie brain at the point of no return. I also have a 5.5 year old with ADHD. I found the ADHD examples in your presentation very helpful.”

 

“Sarah was great! She kept the talk engaging and interesting! A lot of great information and functional strategies were provided and I’m excited to try to implement some! THANK YOU!”

“A great presentation which gives brain structure/function information and how these structures can help/hinder a student's/adult's ability to handle/express emotions and successfully maneuver through their daily lives.”

 

“All about the brain, teaching helpful strategies to build new habits and talk through difficulties, not just behavior management but growing into an adult who is self-aware and able to help others work through their big feelings in a healthy way.”
