Sarah started her teaching career working with some of our youngest learners at the age of two and moved on to continue to work with middle school students. She utilized a maker space in her art classrooms to help foster and develop creativity. Sarah has transitioned into utilizing movement in learning; she is now a certified yoga instructor and finding ways to blend it into instruction.

• It’s important to have a clear objective for why you are using a maker space before you define what you are doing with the maker space.
• Sarah shares some specific breathing strategies to help students self-regulate.
• Utilizing the five senses to create a holistic approach to student attention and feelings.
• Check out www.gonoddle.com for movement-based activities for students and great brain breaks.
