Ep 2: Why smart kids fail school
This episode asks you to challenge your assumption that the "behaviors" that drive you crazy are choices, not missing skills. Our kid pep talk will reveal three teacher secrets that every kid needs to remember! And our example story may sound just like a kid you know and love! This week's challenge is available at sarahkesty.com/episode2 (a reflection to start wondering if it's behavior or a missing skill). In this episode, you will hear: 1:06 Meet Aubrie--a brilliant student who lacks executive function; 7:30 2 important differences about Aubrie's success; 9:03 Why smart kids fail; 11:00 Are you making an assumption that inhibits growth and peace?; 11:10 Oh Should!; 15:20 A reflection for a healthier dynamic; 20:00 Pep talk! I can't wait to hear what you think! Let me know on social or at sarah @ sarahkesty.com. Have a great week and all my love, Sarah Audience: Students and parents, school context
