NEW YEAR AT BNT: New Strategies for Teachers [Ep 241]

Brave New Teaching: A Podcast for High School and Middle School Teachers

A new year brings new opportunities to refresh and refocus in the classroom! In this episode, we’re sharing strategies to help you simplify your teaching and make a big impact, from encouraging critical thinking to refining routines that work.

Let’s start with critical thinking—it’s the foundation for preparing students to navigate today’s fast-paced, information-packed world. We’re talking about moving beyond content delivery and creating spaces where students ask questions, explore ideas, and think for themselves.

We also dig into the power of reliable routines and consistency. These simple but essential practices keep your classroom running smoothly and stress-free. Plus, sticking with what works saves you time and helps your students feel secure and supported.

If you’re ready to approach 2025 with clarity and purpose, this episode has everything you need to get started! 🥳
