PowerPoint Presentations For Staff Development:
These targeted PowerPoint presentations help present a case for certain types of curriculum. Each can enable greater complex learning later in school. Once teachers know the “why” of a strategy, they’re more likely to use it again and again.
The focus is on arts and physical activity. Each brain-based teaching PowerPoint focuses on instructional strategies and each does it from a different point of view. You can expect to get practical strategies you can use with the science background, too.
