WARNING: This episode is funny, silly and spontaneous!   SUMMARY In this episode, the hosts engage in a light-hearted discussion about creating a unique holiday for the martial arts community. They explore various themes such as the significance of horse stance, the importance of community celebration, and the fun challenges that could be included in the holiday festivities. The conversation also delves into the role of a mascot, Garyll the Horse, and how it can enhance the holiday experience. Overall, the episode is a creative and humorous take on bringing the martial arts community together through a shared celebration. In this episode, the speakers brainstorm and develop the concept of 'Ambitioning Day,' a martial arts-themed event aimed at fostering community, motivation, and reflection among practitioners. They discuss the importance of planning, naming the event, incorporating fun activities, and establishing traditions that encourage participation and social interaction. The conversation highlights the significance of creating a welcoming atmosphere for both new and returning students, culminating in a unique celebration that emphasizes training and camaraderie.   TAKEAWAYS The martial arts community deserves its own holiday. Horse stance is a key element of the proposed holiday. Celebration can foster community among martial arts practitioners. The holiday can be a social event rather than a training session. Traditions can be flexible and vary by school. Fun challenges can engage participants and create memorable experiences. The mascot, Garyll the Horse, adds a whimsical touch to the holiday. Activities should be enjoyable and accessible to all ages. The holiday can be celebrated at different times by different schools. Creativity and humor are essential in developing the holiday's lore. The event is designed to re-energize New Year's resolutions. Reflection on training can be a powerful component of the event. Creating a fun atmosphere is essential for engagement. Traditions can enhance the experience and foster community. Food plays a significant role in social gatherings. Activities should cater to all skill levels and encourage participation.

Welcome back to another episode of School Counseling Simplified. Happy December. Today we are doing a throwback to one of my favorite episodes, all about how to design a small group curriculum that actually works. In this episode, we are getting into the meat and potatoes of small group curriculum. My goal is to make the process simple, realistic, and easy to implement so you can confidently design groups that support your students and meet your counseling goals. When it comes to small group curriculum, you are likely doing one of two things. You may be using activities or curriculum that you have already purchased, such as hard copy books provided by your school or resources from Teachers Pay Teachers. Or you may be creating your own curriculum from scratch because one has not been provided for you. No matter which route you choose, there are six steps you can follow to design a small group curriculum that works. Identify your topic Start by identifying your small group topic using referral data or student needs. For example, you may notice a need for a self control group. Outline your weeks with ASCA aligned objectives Determine the length of your group, typically six to eight weeks. Choose one clear objective for each week. Align each objective with an ASCA mindset and behavior that matches your goal. Once this is complete, type out your weekly outline so you have a clear plan to follow. Select your icebreakers Icebreakers are especially important during the first session to help students feel comfortable and connected. Choose simple activities that build rapport and introduce the group structure. Select your activities Activities are the core of each session. Look closely at your weekly objective and choose an activity that directly supports that skill or concept. This ensures your sessions stay focused and intentional. Select a reflection piece Reflection is a powerful part of student learning. Journals work especially well for small groups. Even five minutes of reflection can help students process what they learned and apply it outside of the session. Create your self assessment Data collection is essential for tailoring your sessions and tracking student progress. Create a self assessment that is based on your weekly objectives so you can measure growth throughout the group. This framework helps you stay organized, intentional, and data driven while creating small groups that truly support your students.   Resources Mentioned: Join IMPACT Group Bundle Group Cheat Sheet ASCA Mindset and behaviors Connect with Rachel: TpT Store Blog Instagram Facebook Page Facebook Group Pinterest Youtube   More About School Counseling Simplified: School Counseling Simplified is a podcast offering easy to implement strategies for busy school counselors.

Jesus calls a tax collector named Levi to follow Him. Levi did not hesitate but left everything behind to follow the Lord. But he did not keep this changed life to himself. Instead, he gave a big reception for Jesus in His home and invited others to come. Jesus boldly declares that He came to call sinners to repentance and not the righteous. We know there are none righteous, but He was addressing the Pharisees, who were critical of His eating and drinking with tax collectors and sinners.

Episode Summary As the year comes to a close, many believers feel more drained than victorious.

Send us a textIn this episode, we talk about December. I'm sharing three low-stress activities that keep students engaged, help them revisit everything they've learned, and still give them meaningful input, even when their energy (and ours) is running low.These ideas have worked beautifully in my own classroom. My students stay focused, they collaborate, they read, they listen… and I get to step back a little without sacrificing the quality of the lesson. Top Takeaways1. Review + Recall + InputStudents list everything they remember about a story or unit, reread the text in groups, and create an illustrated or mapped version.2. Dictation That Actually Works in DecemberWe combine recall → dictation → comprehension tasks.3. “Guess Who?” Based on Your ContentA collaborative guessing game using characters, themes, or topics from the semester. Students listen, discuss, negotiate meaning, and celebrate everything they've learned.Free ResourceWant an easy way to keep students moving and collaborating this month?Download my Stations Template Freebie here:

The Young Dancer Intensive is designed for younger students, balancing quality training with fun activities outside the studio. What sets it apart?

Fathers Eve: Building Community and Connection for Dads EverywhereIn this episode, host Josh Elledge interviews John Francis, Founder of Fathers Eve, to explore how a small garage gathering grew into a nationwide movement supporting dads through connection, camaraderie, and community. John shares how Fathers Eve began organically in Minnesota and has since expanded into a global celebration held the night before Father's Day. He discusses the challenges many men face around social isolation and why intentional, judgment-free gatherings can have such a powerful impact on mental health, family life, and community strength.How Fathers Eve Helps Dads Build Meaningful ConnectionsJohn explains that many men lose touch with friendships as they get older, take on more responsibilities, or struggle to maintain social habits after the pandemic. Fathers Eve combats this by creating relaxed, pressure-free environments—ranging from backyard get-togethers to bar meetups to virtual countdown celebrations—where dads can show up as themselves without expectations. The simplicity is intentional: no speakers, no programming, just space for men to talk, laugh, share experiences, and realize they're not alone in their challenges.He also highlights the signature tradition that unites Fathers Eve events worldwide: the 8 p.m. local-time countdown toast, streamed across time zones, creating a shared moment of celebration and solidarity. Activities like cornhole, small trophies, and optional charity drives add fun, community impact, and meaningful purpose to gatherings. For hosts, Fathers Eve provides guidance, personal support from John, and the flexibility to design events that fit their community's needs.Finally, John emphasizes the broader ripple effect these events create—from forming new friendships to strengthening families to contributing to local charities through diaper drives and fundraising efforts. Fathers Eve's open, inclusive format allows dads to build deeper social bonds, improving mental well-being and fostering long-term connection. Whether attending or hosting, dads walk away feeling celebrated, supported, and part of something bigger.About John FrancisJohn Francis is the Founder of Fathers Eve, a global movement focused on creating connection, support, and community for dads everywhere. Known as “Johnny Franchise,” John is also a consultant, speaker, and advocate for fatherhood, leadership, and community-building.

Palestinian Islamic Jihad Presence in Syria and Iranian Ties — John Batchelor, Bill Roggio, Akmed Sharawari — Sharawari documents that Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) maintains operational presence in Syria, conducting activities from refugee camps adjacent to Damascus, maintaining historical organizational relationships with the Assadregime structure. Roggio emphasizes that PIJ functions as a crucial Iranian proxy organization, receiving weapons, financial resources, and operational guidance from Tehran's security apparatus. Batchelor notes that although PIJ was a major participant in the October 7th attacks on Israel, Shara's current government is reluctant to provide full institutional sponsorship due to significant associated political and security risks from Israeli retaliation. 1920 DAMASCUS
