Busting Myths about Relationships, Routines, and Productive Struggle ​

In this episode of the VIBE Edu Teaching and Learning Myths series, Joshua Stamper, Kim Gameroz, TJ Vari, and Mitch Weathers take on the myth that great teaching is mostly about delivering content while students sit still and listen. They explore why developing the learner through relationships, predictable routines, movement, and executive function supports is not extra but essential if content is going to stick.The crew also challenges trendy but misused ideas such as 30 minutes of “productive struggle,” clarifies when struggle is actually unproductive frustration, and explains how clarity, formative assessment, and brief, well placed challenge moments make learning both challenging and successful. With stories about homie baskets, slow starts, turn and talk, and noisy versus quiet classrooms, this conversation gives teachers practical ways to redesign lessons so students feel seen, regulated, and ready to learn.***Connect with our hosts:Kim Gameroz- https://www.selebrategoodtimes.com/Joshua Stamper- https://joshstamper.com/TJ Vari- https://theschoolhouse302.com/Mitch Weathers- https://organizedbinder.com/
