As a recent beauty school graduate, and an editor for MODERN SALON with a HUGE passion for color, I am touring advanced academies, certifications and training programs across the country to give you the need-to-knows on how YOU can be the best hairdresser possible. And? It all starts with education. In this article, I head to The Studio in Woodland Hills, California, for Wella's Essential Color class.
I have a confession---when I see something good, I take it and use it. I don't like to recreate the wheel, and I'm really not all that creative. I also work with people that are very hard-working and creative, so when I stepped into my co-worker's office (Heather Petrusa, SLP) and saw this homemade self-regulation scale, I grabbed it (with her permission) and told her that this was worth using and sharing with all of my blogging friends! She said that our mutual friend, an autism itinerant teacher, Leah Wilson, was actually the one who created it, and she (Heather) just tweaked it. I'm sure Leah won't mind sharing, so here it is! Anyone who works with children with autism knows the difficulties in regulating emotions. Within an hour, a child can go from 'sleepy' to 'boiling' and not have strategies to get to the 'green' area. I liked this scale that Heather and Leah developed because it integrated elements from the 'How does your engine run?' program with emotional states and specific strategies (worded with 1st person statements encouraging more independence with handling regulation in the classroom.) A therapist and teacher can use this scale to first teach emotions, strategies, and self-reflection, and then teach the child to apply these in the classroom. So---thanks Heather and Leah! I'm so happy to work with you! I'm sure your kids are too! To download in Boardmaker, click here! (You can then edit to fit your child's particular needs) To download in pdf, click here! .
One of the reasons I like close reading so much is that it forces encourages students to record their thinking. When students annotate their reading it gives them a purpose for reading, and it also allows teachers to get an inside look at student thinking. I started off teaching students to annotate with lots of modeling. I would model highlighting and annotating by copying pages in our current read aloud (this way students were familiar with the text). As I read the passages, I would stop, highlight, and annotate my thinking to show students how simple but effective it was. Each time I modeled I tried to stress the importance on not becoming a "happy highlighter". Happy highlighters are people who highlight everything they read as important. I reminded them that highlighting the key parts of a text allows it to stand out. It also teaching them to be more specific with their thinking. My happy highlighters were quickly discouraged when they realized that each highlight required an annotation. Another way that I eliminated over highlighting was to make close reading cards. These cards are like task cards for close reading. Each card has a different purpose. I would chose a card, and we would decide if it pertained to our text. If it did, we would think about this task as we reread the text. Once I felt students understood the process, I turned them loose during guided reading. To remind students of best practices, I made close reading toolkits. Each tool contains five highlighters (yellow, orange, pink, blue, and green), a highlighter color code key, and close reading cards. Here is an example of a toolkit. Students know to use different colors of highlighters to show different types of thinking. Thinking about reading and annotating our thinking has become second nature in my classroom. I can see a huge difference in group discussions about a text and on their standardized reading test scores! If you would like your students to make annotating thinking a part of their daily routine, you can take a closer look at my Close Reading in a Jar or my Close Reading on a Ring in Teachers Pay Teachers store.

The Original Roby Chart© is a unique tool that was born from my frustration, as a student of energy healing, that there was no one place to see the color meaning and location of the 7 major energy centers (chakras) in the physical body, along with a sample of core beliefs that can affect health. I distilled and integrated information from several expert sources, including Louise Hay, Caroline Myss and Dorothy Martin-Neville. Then I consigned an artist to do the anatomy. Each part of the body has a brief note about what beliefs can influence it--thus incorporating energetic, physical and influence of mind (beliefs) in one beautiful image. The Roby Chart is an original piece of copyrighted artwork. The posters are printed copies. I strive to use packing materials that are either recyclable, biodegradable or reused.

Everything has an aura In metaphysics, Aura refers to the energy field emanating from the surface of a person or object. This emanation is visualized as an outline of cascading color and may be held to represent soul vibrations, chakra emergence, or a reflection of surrounding energy fields. Auras may be viewed by the naked eye, though some psychics, like Edgar Cayce, believe this ability weakens with age. Focused training may improve one's ability to see auras. Layers of aura are separate and distinct yet connected to all the remaining layers. In the books of Carlos Castaneda auras are referred to as luminous cocoons. Modern New Age metaphysics identify the aura as electromagnetic fields. The existence of electromagnetic fields around every object in the known world is a scientifically proven fact. What is debatable is whether or not humans can see these electromagnetic fields as colors with the naked eye. This claim is considered paranormal because devices that sense…

Hello. My name is Tammy and I'm an Anchor Chart Addict. Reading charts, writing charts, grammar charts, math, science, social studies... you name it... I've got an anchor chart for it! If you are like me, by the end of the year, you're drowning in a sea of chart paper! Before I throw out the life preserver, here are a few anchor chart tidbits I'd like to share: I'm artistic by nature and I think making anchor charts taps into that creativity. Not only do anchor charts brighten my classroom, but they are also meaningful teaching and reference tools for my students. I almost always make my anchor charts with my class. I believe that there is more buy-in and ownership for the content if students are active participants in the creation of the charts. When we make our anchor charts, I start with the title and design a border around the edge of the paper. I read something, somewhere, a long time ago that said when you add a border, you keep your reader's eyes focused on the information within the frame. If you don't have a border the eye may, more easily, drift from the page and we don't want that! Colors are also important. I don't pre-plan a color scheme, but that might be a good idea for the future. I usually just pick colors I like, colors that fit my classroom, or colors of markers that actually have some ink in them (I need to get some new markers!). My favorite markers for anchor charts are the Sharpie Flip Chart Markers. They have a bullet tip and put out a lot of pigment onto the paper. I also like Scentos markers because they... well... smell good and in a fourth grade classroom, that means something! In my classroom, anchor charts that are currently in use are pretty much displayed all around the room. My math anchor charts are on the math wall. My science or social studies charts are in that area of the room, and my ELA charts are on my ELA wall. Charts that we are currently working on are usually displayed on our white board at the front of the room so that we can continue to add information to them. Once an anchor chart is completed or we have moved on to another topic, I move that anchor chart to the reference section of our classroom. The anchor charts are stacked and stapled, one on top of each other, but still accessible for my students. It is not unheard of for a student to go to that wall and look through the anchor charts to find some tidbit of information that they need for an assignment or project. Here are some other brilliant display ideas from Pinterest Pinners: Needless to say, but by the end of the year, I have a ton of anchor charts to deal with. I feel like I'm drowning in a sea of paper. Since I prefer to make my anchor charts with my students, I usually end up recycling all of them. The last year or so, I've gotten a little bit smarter and started taking pictures of the ones I'd like to repeat with my class the next year. I save these photos in a file name Anchor Charts on my school computer so that I can reference them the next year. I've also seen a lot of great storage ideas on Pinterest. Here are a few smart storage suggestions: Here are a few more of my MANY anchor charts: I hope you found some great ideas for your classroom. Thank you for visiting!
