Teaching Middle School ELA

I’d love to hear from you! Send me a text!In this episode, I explore the concept of "going after it" vs "receiving" when it comes to abundance in our lives. I discuss the idea that constantly pushing and striving for more can actually block us from receiving the abundance that is already present in our lives. Whether you're looking to improve your finances, relationships, or overall well-being, this Monday Mindset will provide you with an interesting perspective around shifting toward a receiving way of being for living a more abundant life.

I’d love to hear from you! Send me a text!It’s such a waste of time to use an amazing activity in an ELA lesson and then forget about it. Why spend all of that time and energy creating it, only to use it once? Not to mention the time you spend explaining the process to your students. Why not reuse the activity all year long? We like to call this process rinsing and repeating. It is a super effective way to keep your students engaged while ensuring they are mastering the standards and concepts being taught. In today’s video, I’m talking all about 3 ways to play one ELA game, so you can rinse and repeat it all year long!Are you enjoying the podcast?Tag us @ebacademics and let us know which episode you're listening to!Make sure to Subscribe and leave us a Review!Your review helps us reach even more middle school ELA teachers just like you!
