As a GABAergic compound, Taurine can inhibit the neurological processes that result in anxiety or stress. It has also been observed to lower cortisol levels. This might also explain why Taurine is so often consumed with caffeine, so as to offset some of the negative side effects like nervousness and restlessness.
Students can gain as much as 20 minutes of extra reading in class each day when teachers designate reading as the only activity for any class time not used for instruction and practice. Having time to read in class motivates my students to read more at home, too.
I love teaching a child to read and watching as it finally begins to click in their minds. I love seeing the excitement as they take off with reading and you can hardly pull them out of a book. Early reader books such as the Bob Books are so wonderful for helping kids learn to read. However, something I feel is really important for beginning readers is to show them that they can read ârealâ books, too. I love using picture books to help teach my kids to read. This year we have been learning to read with Dr. Seuss. Did you know that many of the Dr. Seuss books have very easy reading levels that young readers can use to practice reading? I have stacks of Dr. Seuss books because we all love them in our house.
