CRUSH SCHOOL

I blog on Brain-Based Learning, Metacognition, EdTech, and Social-Emotional Learning. I am the author of the Crush School Series of Books, which help students understand how their brains process information and learn. I also wrote The Power of Three: How to Simplify Your Life to Amplify Your Personal and Professional Success, but be warned that it's meant for adults who want to thrive and are comfortable with four letter words.

8 More Metacognitive Learning Strategies To Crush School With

By Oskar Cymerman | @focus2achieve | BAM! Radio Network & Teaching Channel Blogger

Top of the Morning to You!

As promised, today I present to you 8 additional Metacognitive Learning Strategies I discuss in my book "Crush School: Every Student's Guide To Killing It In The Classroom."

I wrote the book as if I were having a conversation with a student reader, because I want teachers to have a tool that "speaks" the student language. My hope was to write a bite-sized guide any teacher, parent, and student can pick up and use immediately. There are no prerequisites here. Grab "Crush School," read a 5 minute chapter, and add to your teaching arsenal. Or, hand the book (or parts of it) to your students and point them to a strategy they will find helpful right now.

But even if you choose not to grab a copy for yourself, I want you to have access to the strategies it contains. To that end, I've created a series of infographics that showcase 24 brain based (metacognitive) strategies you can use and share with anyone. This is part 2. Enjoy!

If you'd like some examples and descriptions designed for students specifically, check out Crush School on Amazon. You can read it for free with Kindle Unlimited, or purchase for $9.99.

I describe the strategies in more detail in "Crush School," but keep each chapter brief and to the point. No blah. I promise.

If you absolutely cannot afford to buy the book, please email me at oskar.cymerman@gmail.com and I'll email you a copy.

Stay tuned for the final 8 strategies or SIGN UP for my NEWSLETTER and I'll drop them straight in your email inbox.

And I want you to always remember this when you look into the eyes of a child you teach:

You have the power to change the world. Use it often.

How To Crush School

By Oskar Cymerman | @focus2achieve | BAM! Radio Network & Teaching Channel Blogger

I was recently interviewed by Mindprint Learning about my new book "Crush School: Every Students' Guide To killing It In The Classroom." It's a book on helping students learn by using proven brain based strategies. In the interview, I answer a lot of questions about my motivations for the book, who I wrote it for, and why I believe it is important and unique.

If you are considering purchasing "Crush School" for yourself or someone else, many of your questions will be answered in the interview. It is available here --> How To "Crush School."

The book can be pre-ordered until this Sunday, July 24 at $7.49, which is 50% off regular price of $14.99 "Crush School" will be sold at when it is released as an e-book on July 28, 2016.

You have just 3 more days to order at half price. The book is full of humor, graphics, links and most importantly "crush school" strategies that benefit all learners. It contains the classroom and at home strategies I present in my infographics and many more. I promise you that you've never seen a book like "Crush School" before.
