Welcome
Hi, I’m Beckie.
I’m a kindergarten teacher who became captivated by one simple question:
How does the brain grow?
The more I learned about neuroscience, the more I realized that movement, relationships, play, belonging, and curiosity aren’t “extras,” they are essential ingredients for learning. Growing Every Brain is where I explore how brain science can help us create classrooms where every child feels capable, connected and excited to learn.
I don’t have all the answers and I don’t pretend to. This is a place where I’m learning out loud, asking questions and sharing what I’m discovering along the way.
Whether you’re a teacher, parent, therapist, or lifelong learner, I’m so glad you are here!
