How to Take a Brain Boosters TeleChat
so You Can Help Your Kids with Brain-based Learning

BrainBoosters TeleChats are the perfect answer for teachers looking for professional development classes that are convenient and cost effective
while offering powerful learning strategies, and teacher resources.

And Brain Boosters TeleChats are also the ideal way for busy moms and
dads (even grandparents) to get parenting tips to help their kids with
learning and homework.

And taking a brain-based learning TeleChat is "a piece of cake."  Pick up
your phone, dial the TeleChat number, enter your personal pin, and listen. That's it. You don't even have to talk if you don't want to.

But there are a few other things that will help you get the most out of your Brain Boosters TeleChat.

1. Download your handouts before the call. Sometimes you'll find a fun quiz or self-test along with the handouts. If you've got time, you might want to do the quiz ahead of time.

2. Print out your handouts on 3-hole punched paper and then stick them
in a binder just for the Brain Boosters TeleChat. Eventually you'll have an
entire workbook just for brain-based learning. If you like to be organized,
you can get six dividers for your notebook, one for each week.

3. Print two copies of templates you find in your handouts that you might
want to duplicate for your class or your kids at home. That way you can
write on one copy during the call.

4. Follow along with your handouts and write on them as instructed.  You'll remember what you're learning better if you're writing and listening. Writing or underlining important points in different colors also helps you remember.

What you'll need during your TeleSeminar

1. Access to a computer where you can get e-mail and download and print out handouts ahead of time. You do not need a computer during the
TeleChat.

2. Telephone. Good idea also to get a headset to plug into your telephone
so you can write and doodle and drink water during your class. If you've
got high-speed access and your phone is next to your computer, you can
follow your handouts on your computer screen more easily if you have a headset.

3. Water to drink. Water is essential to learning. You'll learn all about why
in the first TeleSeminar.

4. Paper and pencil. Colored markers are also useful.

5. The class handouts you've already downloaded and printed off the Web

6. A quiet space where you won't be interrupted during your TeleChat

7. After your TeleChat, find some children at home or at school who will benefit from what you've learned.
