Educating with Love
Share
I’ve been waiting 4 MONTHS to announce this very exciting news!!!
My school, EAST MIDDLE SCHOOL in Brentwood, NY will be hosting a “TED TALK” like conference day on March 28th!!!
Educators, parents, and students have experienced despair like never before. I couldn’t stop but to think “How can we uplift our students, teachers, families and community?!?”
I thought of my father. My father, Manuel Miguel Fernandez, was a man who valued education and small business owners. He loved the energy of networking and bring community together. He loved to share ideas. Sharing Ideas brings freedom, solutions to problems, creativity, and allows for human interaction.
So, at 4 am on a random December morning, I began to contact former EMS students, local business owners, and nationwide impactful people that care about education and asked them all to volunteer their time to share their story, purpose and ideas with our EMS students. Since we are now A school I also asked they talk about the .
All 46 people agreed! Students voiced who they want to see present that day by voting for their top 3 picks. It’s taken an entire school and community to organize this event but we can’t wait! So, March 28th will be our conference day!!

The sense of touch generates surprisingly powerful and long-lasting memories.
A new study by Fabian Hutmacher and Christof Kuhbandner, researchers at the University of Regensburg, provides the findings that the sense of touch generates memories that are far more complex and long-lasting than previously thought.
With that said, I question the world of going 100% digital in the classroom. Doing a science experiment on nearpod or apps of the like is great! BUT let’s NOT replace it for a REAL science lab/ experiment in the classroom! Supplement and balance your lessons with both digital to reinforce what you are teaching your students but please do offer them ample opportunities for real life interactive activities where they can touch and feel what they are learning about!
All humans need interaction and the use of their senses to internalize what they are learning.
In the picture above you can see my son modeling how you can lean cvc words with magnetic letters and play dough.
First, he had to place them in the correct order to spell the word after I dictated the words to him.
Then, he tapped out each sound within the word and pushed down the play dough as he sounded out the word.
This really helped him understand that words are made up of phonemes.
