KNOW vs. Can DO

Helping our students Do what they “Know”

A little help from the brain But who am I?

SLIDE 3

Kids do well if they CAN

How is this true?

Behavior IS Information Classroom Application

What does that look like?

➢ 3 Brains ➢ Connection to the body ➢ Timeline

What is it saying?

➢ Private Logic ➢ Growth Edge ➢ Do Calm ➢ Loan Calm ➢ Practice Calm ➢ Identify Lagging Skills

“Kids do well if they CAN”

How is this true?

The 3 Brain Reason

Cortex Limbic Region Brainstem

slide-6
SLIDE 6

The KNOW Brain- Cortex

Key Concepts-

  • Potential /Ready at birth
  • Experience creates pathways

○ Fire together, Wire together

  • Conscious awareness
  • ~5% of behavior
  • 25 years to fully develop
  • When integrated, regulates

subcortical regions

slide-7
SLIDE 7

The DO Brain - Limbic Region

Key Concepts-

  • Functional at birth
  • Assessing survival

○ Guides attention

  • Emotional center
  • Role in learning/memory
  • Closed feedback system
  • Role in activating- ANS
slide-8
SLIDE 8

The DO/BE Brain- Brainstem

Key Concepts-

  • Mature at full term birth
  • Functionally autonomic,

involuntary & reflexive

  • Vital organs
  • Most primitive structure

Key Architecture-

  • Vagal Nerve

At birth, 89 billion single neurons

Kids do well if they CAN Ross Greene What do you now know about the brain that supports this statement?

The Cortex

The knowing part Constructed by experience ~ 5% of behavior - Conscious

Limbic Region/Brainstem

The doing/being parts Mature at birth- directs survival ~ 95% of behavior - Unconscious

Let’s Move This “Know”ledge Into the “Do”-ing Brain

Baby Suzy

I feel ___________________ I am ___________________ Care-givers are __________ Life is __________________

Baby Joe

Take a few moments- Jot down reactions Who came to mind? Any ah-ha’s? Share

(Mis)Behavior IS Information

slide-18
SLIDE 18

“Emotions” are a peptide communication system that motivates behavior

Candace Pert

p

A chain of amino acids = Peptide

tryptophan, tyrosine, phenylalanine = Serotonin

slide-19
SLIDE 19

Private Logic

Neuropathways constructed through experiences before 5 years old. It was adaptive. It makes sense. Learn the story Connect to the logic, validate, and inform

slide-20
SLIDE 20

Growth Edge

We DO what experience has constructed as a pathway to keep us safe in our most emotionally laden environments Where students are not doing what they “know” a.k.a. The Rules , THAT is where the paved path ends

Classroom APPLICATION So HOW “do” we use this “know”ledge?

slide-23
SLIDE 23

First, Understand

slide-24
SLIDE 24

Do/Be the Calm

Then, integrate your Know, Do brains

  • Self-Care

○ Mindfulness Practices ○ Relaxation Practices

  • Self-Awareness

○ Identify when you are being hi-jacked into your Do/Be Brain System ○ Know what stress feels like in your body ○ Do your remedies ○ Check your beliefs

slide-25
SLIDE 25

Loan the Calm

Resonance

Right to Right

slide-26
SLIDE 26

Loan the calm- ASK

  • 1. Am I in my calm?
  • 2. How can I loan my calm?
  • 3. How is this behavior showing me where the pathway ends?
  • 4. Which need is not being met? (yours and the student’s...

triggering threat alarms)

  • 5. What skill is lagging?
  • 6. Wonder WITH THE STUDENT about strategies to practice

the new/desired behavior?

slide-27
SLIDE 27

Loan the calm- Identify the Lagging Skills

Ross Greene, Livesinthebalance.org

➢ Transition ➢ Sequencing ➢ Sense of Time ➢ Focus ➢ Connecting Consequences ➢ Expressing Needs ➢ Emotional Regulation ➢ Cognitive Distortion ➢ Social Cues ➢ Empathy ➢ Perspective Taking ➢ Sensory/Motor ➢ Appropriate Attention Seeking ➢ Multiple Solutions ➢ Deviating from Rules/ Gray Zone

Practice the Calm

➢ Name it to Tame it ➢ The Body Scan ➢ Time-In ➢ Belly Surfing ➢ The Happy Place ➢ Object Grounding ➢ Cloud Gazing ➢ Shift Happens ➢ Develop Common Language

Develop Common Language

Recap

➔ Kids do well if they can ◆ 3 Brain centers ◆ 2 Autonomic Nervous Systems ◆ Timeline ➔ Behavior is Information ◆ Communication System

  • Use it

➔ Classroom Strategies ◆ Do the calm ◆ Loan your calm

  • Ask questions
  • Id. lagging skills

◆ Practice the calm
