Month 1 - The Teenage Brain: please access the resources in the "Share Point" from the Newton email page. Take a read from the powerpoints, articles and documents there about the brain. Think deeply about what you have read during those precious quiet moments of the week. Then, we get together to exchange ideas and discuss the teenage brain and its obvious impact on learning.


"The brain is a biological system, not a machine. Currently we are putting children with biologically shaped brains into machine-oriented schools. The two just don't mix. We bog the school down with a curriculum that is not biologically feasible."  p11, Teachers Toolkit, Paul Ginnis
