In Episode 222 of the Equipping ELLs podcast, Beth Vaucher opens with a moment almost every ELL teacher has experienced — a decision gets made about one of your students, a placement, a schedule, a support — and nobody asked you. Not because the decision-makers are bad people or do not care. But because it did not occur to anyone that you were the person who should be at the table. That moment stings. And today's episode is about changing it.Beth opens with a reframe that runs through the entire episode: the difference between being the ELL teacher in a building and being the ELL expert. It is not about credentials or years of experience. It is about positioning. The ELL teacher advocates from need — my students need more support, my students are not getting what they need. All of those things may be true. But when you lead from what is missing, you position yourself as the person who brings problems. And people avoid the person who brings problems. The ELL expert advocates from knowledge — here is what I know about language acquisition that changes how we should think about this student, here is what I observed this week, here is a resource any teacher in the building can use tomorrow. Same information. Completely different position. And experts get invited to the table.Beth is honest about why ELL expertise is often invisible. A math teacher looks at student work and can point to exactly what the student understands. A reading specialist hears a student read and identifies the decoding gap in thirty seconds. Their expertise is visible in real time because the people around them share enough background knowledge to recognize what they are seeing. Language acquisition is different. The stages of language development, the affective filter, the difference between social and academic language, why a student fluent in the hallway falls apart on a writing task — these are not things most educators understand. And what people do not understand they undervalue, not from malice but from ignorance. The ELL expert's job is not to be frustrated that people do not already understand — it is to make expertise visible, consistently, proactively, in ways that are useful to the people around them.Three things experts do that advocates often do not. First: share knowledge before there is a problem. Show up in August with information that prevents the crisis, not after the crisis has started. Send a homeroom teacher a two-sentence explanation of the silent period not because there is a concern but because understanding it changes how that teacher sees that student. Second: make other people's jobs easier. Expertise that creates more work gets deprioritized. Expertise that reduces work gets sought out. The question to ask about every resource you share is: does this make this teacher's life easier or harder? And — importantly — avoid becoming the dumping ground. Beth shares a story of a co-teacher who was constantly asked to do the differentiation work for everyone else. The goal is not to do it for them. It is to equip them to do it — modeling, walking through, then gradually releasing, just like with students. Third: always have a resource ready. One page. One scaffold. Something a homeroom teacher can actually use tomorrow. Not a lecture. Not a PD referral. Something specific and immediately useful that positions you as the go-to person.The common mistake: starting with the hardest person to reach. Beth shares a story of her own first year working with a group of sixth-grade teachers who were clearly resistant and uninterested. She eventually reached them by year's end — but not by pushing harder. By building relationships where she could, finding teachers who were curious, and letting visible success speak for itself. Start with open doors. Build one visible success story. Let that success story spread.For teachers in genuinely resistant buildings — Beth is honest that not everything changes immediately and not everything is within your control. But building culture changes through consistent, visible, high-quality work over time. Students whose growth is documented and undeniable. Classroom practices that other teachers can see working. A teacher who shows up every day knowing what she is doing and why. Some of what you plant this year will be harvested by whoever comes after you. The knowledge that the work matters regardless is what sustains you. And so is community.The episode closes with what Beth calls the heaviest part of ELL teaching — the isolation. The only ELL teacher in the building. Decisions without colleagues who understand your field. Wins that nobody around you fully gets. That isolation is real. And the Equipping ELLs membership community — over 2,500 educators around the world — is the answer to it.FREE TRIAL: equippingells.com/trial — full access to resources, coaching, and a community of ELL teachers who get it.

In this episode of New Frontiers, Paul Johnson sits down with Arizona State Treasurer Kimberly Yee, Republican candidate for Arizona Superintendent of Public Instruction, for a wide-ranging conversation about education, Arizona's future workforce, and the challenges facing students and teachers across the state.Yee discusses her vision for improving Arizona education, from strengthening reading and math skills to expanding STEM, vocational training, financial literacy, and career opportunities for students. She also shares how she believes schools should approach artificial intelligence as technology continues to reshape both the classroom and the economy.The conversation explores Arizona's teacher shortage, teacher pay and retention, classroom management, parental involvement, school choice, and how more resources can reach teachers and students directly. Yee also discusses the importance of preparing students for multiple paths after graduation, whether that means college, skilled trades, workforce training, or entering a career with an industry certification.Paul and Yee also discuss civics, U.S. history, and helping young people better understand the country they are inheriting. As Paul raises concerns about political division and a declining understanding of history, Yee explains why she wants schools to place a greater emphasis on the Constitution, America's founding principles, civil discourse, and teaching students how to understand and respectfully engage with different points of view.The conversation concludes with a broader discussion about Arizona politics and putting Arizonans ahead of party. Paul and Yee discuss independent voters, finding common ground, and the importance of leaders working across political differences to get things done for the state.Chapters: 00:00 - Arizona Politics Are Getting Ugly 05:26 - Intro 06:03 - Who is Kimberly Yee? 10:59 - What Has Arizona Education Gotten Right? 14:27 - The Billions Behind Arizona's Public Schools 16:10 - What Should Every Student Know by Graduation? 19:41 - Is Arizona Ready for AI in the Classroom? 21:16 - Preparing Students for Arizona's Jobs of Tomorrow 27:38 - Can AI Help Teachers Without Replacing Them? 32:31 - Why Arizona Is Struggling to Keep Teachers 37:57 - Where Are the Parents?41:10 - Are Students Learning Enough American History? 46:02 - Can Arizona Leaders Put Party Aside? 55:45 - Final Remarks and Conclusion
If your classroom felt calm during the first week but is already beginning to slide, it does not mean your classroom management plan failed. In this episode of Beginning Teacher Talk, Dr. Lori challenges the impossible standard that students should master expectations the first time and explains why your classroom may simply need a focused reset. What You'll Learn: • Why students testing expectations does not mean you are failing at classroom management • How treating behavior and routines like curriculum changes the way you respond • Why collecting random classroom management strategies creates more overwhelm instead of a reliable system • How to reset one challenging routine through modeling, practice, specific feedback, and consistent follow-through • Why calm, related, and predictable consequences can support reteaching while still holding students accountable Resources Mentioned in This Episode: • Learn more about Dr. Lori's programs You do not need to become a harsher teacher, scrap everything you have created, or wait for a new group of students.

As a follow-up to our earlier episode on communicating with professors (#83), Lynn and Vicki explore some of the benefits of relationships with professors, what those relationships might look like, and how students might approach and work with faculty members outside of the classroom. We often assume many of these social skills are second nature and common sense, but post Covid, students may need help in developing these skills. Parents may be one of their student's most valuable coaches.Thank you for listening!Much more information for college parents can be found on our website, College Parent CentralFind us on Twitter at @CollParCentralFind us on Bluesky at @CollParCentral.bsky.socialSign up for our newsletter for ongoing information

What does it mean to be a leader in education? Leadership doesn't always come with a title—it can happen in the classroom, in conversations with colleagues, and in the everyday choices teachers make to support their students and school communities. In this episode, we explore the journey from teacher to trailblazer and how educators can build leadership into their everyday practice. We'll discuss what it looks like to recognize your influence, lead with intention, and create meaningful change without waiting for a formal leadership position.

#266What if “participation” in your language classroom doesn't actually mean what you think it does? A few students raising their hands, answering questions, and volunteering often looks like engagement—but what about everyone else? In this episode, we'll take a closer look at what meaningful participation really looks like through the lens of proficiency. You'll discover simple routines that get more students communicating, create multiple pathways to participate, and help you move beyond relying on the same confident voices. Topics in this Episode: Participation should be defined as evidence of engagement with language and meaning, not simply verbal output.Common reasons participation breaks down: Expectations are unclear; Only one participation option exists; Participation rewards personality: Outgoing studentInstead of asking "How do I get more kids talking?" Maybe the better question is..."How do I design the lesson so participation is unavoidable?"Characteristic of effective participation: Visible, Structured, Supported, PurposefulRoutines that support participation: Think, Write, Share; Partner First; Choice, ReactionsCommon mistakes to avoidAction stepsParticipation That Works for All StudentsA Few Ways We Can Work Together:Ready For Tomorrow Quick Win PD for Individual TeachersOn-Site or Virtual Workshops for Language DepartmentsSelf-Paced Program for For Language DepartmentsConnect With Me & The World Language Classroom Community:Website: wlclassrom.comInstagram: @wlclassroomFacebook Group: World Language ClassroomFacebook: /wlclassroomLinkedIn: Joshua CabralBluesky: /wlclassroom.bsky.sociaX (Twitter): @wlclassroomThreads: @wlclassroomSend me a text and let me know your thoughts on this episode or the podcast.

"My toaster has undergone more safety and efficacy testing than any piece of ed tech that's been put in front of our kids in the past 20 years." That's according to Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath, a neuroscientist, university professor, and former classroom teacher whose book "The Digital Delusion" has become the center of a national conversation about screens in schools. He's testified before the U.S. Senate, and parents are handing out copies at school board meetings. Jared's argument is that we've spent decades and $400 billion building an ed tech industry on a promise that never materialzed, and that the tools we've handed kids are working against the way human beings actually learn. I came into this conversation agreeing with a lot of his premise and pushing back on some of it, particularly the reliance on standardized test scores as evidence of learning outcomes and the assumption that school was working well before devices showed up. Jared took the pushback seriously, and what came out of it is one of the deepest (and certainly lengthiest!) conversations I've had about whether the ed tech promise keeps failing and what teachers can actually do about it. We dig into: Why the work of learning goes against our natural human biology, and what that means for a tool designed to remove friction What "engagement" means at the level of the brain, and why gamified learning keeps kids entertained without teaching them much The only two use cases where the research shows ed tech genuinely works (and why neither are very exciting) The difference between what a tool could do and what kids will actually do with it -Whether school was actually working better before devices, and what we lost that's worth going back for Jared makes the case for reintroducing friction and eliminating tech as the default rather than banning it outright, and shares what to say to admin and parents when you want to teach differently. Most importantly, Jared makes the case for teacher autonomy and why you need to trust your own expertise about student learning. This conversation ended in a more hopeful place than I expected, and I hope you'll carve out some blocks of time to go deep with us on this topic. It takes time to tease out the nuance, and that's where the most important takeaways are. LIsten on or read: https://truthforteachers.com/truth-for-teachers-podcast/the-digital-delusion/
Ever handed out a “math game” that was really just a worksheet with a dice on top? You're not alone, and this episode will change how you choose games from now on.This week Ashleigh sits down with James Russo, a maths education researcher from Monash who spends his days in real primary classrooms testing what actually works. James unpacks the difference between a genuine math game and a gamified worksheet, why the maths has to be baked into the game rather than bolted on top, and the small teacher moves that turn a bit of fun into real mathematical thinking. If you love a good classroom game but sometimes wonder whether your students are actually learning from it, this one's for you. In this episode, we cover:What separates a real math game from a gamified worksheet, and why it matters3 things every good math game needsHow to pause a game for a quick mathematical investigationUsing “beat the teacher” and pair play to harness competition without the chaosWhy your energy as the teacher is the secret ingredient to engagementWhat's the one math game your class begs to play?

In this episode of the "Christians Beyond the Classroom" series, Dean sits down with Andy Koesters, pastor to churches and families at FamiliesAlive and missional director for New River Presbytery, to discuss discipling the next generation. Andy shares the heart behind his book Let the Children Come, which he wrote primarily for elders and church leaders to equip them with a biblical vision for next-generation discipleship. The discussion highlights practical ways churches can unleash believers into discipleship through common interests rather than traditional program volunteering, the importance of elders truly shepherding and knowing their flock, and how parents can create environments where children feel safe to express doubts and questions from the earliest age. Andy challenges listeners to become students of what it means to be a discipler like Jesus—sharing the gospel and their own selves with affectionate desire for those around them.

Longtime full-time teacher and longtime part-time improviser Kate Wiersema talks about her very fun and incredibly helpful book Playing to Learn: Using Improv in the K-8 Classroom, which creates suggestions and games that provide a "structure for fun" in the classroom. Kate shares how these games and tools can be used for curriculum as well as emotional learning; how these tools require no extra supplies and help build a sense of community; how learning can be collaborative rather than adversarial; how they can help get out of the rote of everything becoming "standardized;" the importance of combating ‘boy syndrome;' the value of someone stepping up and being the “And;” and further examples – if more were needed – that illustrate why Improv Is Magic. Lives are being changed! (Length 20:17) The post Playing To Learn appeared first on Reduced Shakespeare Company.

Eight ways to engage every learner — recorded in 2021, and every principle still works. This was #9 in our all-time top 10 countdown, and it isn't a ten-minute episode: it's a full session of classroom principles and tools for re-engaging students. I've edited this one lightly to remove a few apps that no longer exist and to fix my numbering. But I left the AI ethics segment in on purpose. Back in 2021 — well before ChatGPT — educators were already teaching students to think about whether we should, not just whether we could. Those students got a head start, and that history is worth hearing. In this episode, you'll learn: - Why slow, steady progress ("innovate like a turtle") beats a total overhaul - How to relate before you educate — and the research behind why it works - Four ways to give students a safe channel to tell you how they're doing - How to bring students into evaluating your own teaching practices - What teaching AI ethics looked like before ChatGPT existed The story of Sue and Mrs. Scruggs is the center of this episode — a five-minute conversation with one teacher that changed the entire direction of a life.

#265What if the first five minutes of class could set the tone for everything that follows? Those opening moments are easy to overlook, but they can be some of the most powerful minutes of our lesson. Instead of letting them disappear into routines and interruptions, what if we used them intentionally to build proficiency, establish expectations, and get students communicating from the moment they walk in? In this episode, we'll look at simple routines that help you start strong—and make every minute count. Topics in this Episode: Effective routines create freedom. They reduce cognitive load. Students know what to expect.

Pass the Baton: Empowering Students in Music Education, a Podcast for Music Teachers
In episode 117, Theresa and Kathryn talk with Jazzmone Sutton, Senior Manager of State Advocacy and Equity at NAfME, about rethinking what music education advocacy can look like. Jazzmone challenges the idea that advocacy is simply “sharing the good news” about our programs, instead describing effective advocacy as getting others to act positively on behalf of students and educators—and doing that work proactively. A key part of that advocacy? Students themselves. Jazzmone shares powerful stories of elementary students identifying what they needed, creating opportunities to make music beyond the classroom, and even advocating directly with a principal for a middle school choir.The conversation also explores how student ownership and advocacy are deeply connected. When students understand why music matters to them, have opportunities to lead, and see themselves as drivers of their own musical journeys, they become authentic advocates for music education. Jazzmone offers practical encouragement for teachers who feel uncomfortable advocating, reminding us that a “no” from one person isn't a “no” from everyone; and that doing advocacy work often means getting comfortable with discomfort, building relationships, and refusing to simply accept the status quo when students deserve better.Connect with Jazzmone and learn more: Email Jazzmone - advocacy@nafme.org Advocate for Music Education The Music Education Advocate PodcastSupport the showLearn more about Pass the BatonPass the Baton websiteJoin the Coffee ClubSupport Pass the BatonAmplify student voice with Exit Tickets for Self Reflection
The Henry County Farm Bureau is wrapping up a busy summer while preparing for several educational programs and activities as the fall season approaches. Katie Laleman of the Henry County Farm Bureau recently joined Ken Peele on Wake Up Tri-Counties to discuss upcoming events, including the rescheduled Foundation Golf Funday, the return of the Ag in the Classroom program, and an annual driver education event focused on farm and railroad safety. Foundation Golf Funday Rescheduled The Henry County Farm Bureau Foundation's biggest fundraiser, the Foundation Golf Funday, was recently postponed because of weather. The event was rescheduled to Friday, August 28, at Baker Park. The fundraiser supports the Farm Bureau Foundation, including its Ag in the Classroom program and scholarship efforts. Ag in the Classroom Returns With the start of the school year, the Henry County Farm Bureau is also preparing to bring its Ag in the Classroom program back into local elementary schools. Madison Castile has taken over as the Farm Bureau's education coordinator following Paula Jansen's retirement after 24 years in the position. The program reaches elementary students throughout Henry County and typically reaches more than 11,000 students each year. Lessons are generally conducted for about 30 minutes and vary according to the students' ages. The fall lessons will include topics such as apples and pumpkins. Students may learn where apples are grown, how they are produced, and how different varieties compare. Apple tasting is also part of the lesson. As the school year continues, students will learn about a variety of agricultural topics, including Christmas trees, livestock, and other aspects of farming. The goal, Laleman explained, is to help young people understand where their food comes from and become informed consumers. The program also introduces students to agriculture-related careers. Driver Education Program Focuses on Farm and Railroad Safety Another major program will take place in September when the Henry County Farm Bureau invites high school students from across the county to the Henry County Fairgrounds for an agricultural driver safety program. Students will rotate through approximately five stations addressing topics including sharing the road with farm equipment and railroad safety. Local farmers bring agricultural equipment to demonstrate what motorists can see—and cannot see—from the driver's seat. Students learn about safe following distances, passing farm equipment, and the importance of watching for flashing lights. The timing of the program is particularly important as the area heads into the fall harvest season, when more tractors, combines, and grain carts are traveling local roads. The program also includes Operation Lifesaver, which teaches students about railroad safety and what to look for when approaching railroad crossings. FS brings a driving simulator that allows students to experience what it is like to operate large agricultural equipment. Students can also climb into larger pieces of equipment to better understand the driver's perspective and blind spots. Laleman said the program is designed to prepare young drivers for the situations they will encounter on rural roads, where tall crops, blind intersections, farm equipment, and other hazards can create additional challenges. “If we can save one person, if we can save an accident from happening, we've done our job,” Laleman said. Staying Connected With the Farm Bureau Residents who want to learn more about Henry County Farm Bureau programs and activities can follow the organization on Facebook, visit its website, or check the Farm Bureau's monthly publication sent to members. Information is also available by contacting the Henry County Farm Bureau office. With Ag in the Classroom returning and harvest season approaching, the Farm Bureau is preparing for another busy fall focused on agriculture, education, and community safety.

Let's be real teachers—there's a huge difference between a worksheet and a “worksh*t”. One of those is about authentic learning, amazing feedback, and active engagement. The other is about busy work, creating frustration, and a time vampire. The good news is… worksheets CAN be an amazing thing IF we use them correctly. In this episode, we're cutting through the clutter and breaking down five simple yet strategic ways to evaluate the paper (or digital!) tasks you're handing out. Whether you teach elementary or high school, you'll walk away with practical tips, reflective questions, and a fresh lens for designing or choosing activities that actually move the learning forward. Spoiler alert: the information in this episode will actually save you SO much teacher time too!

Fire alarms ring without cause, children report impossible encounters, and a camera captures something that could not have happened. Yet every incident is explained away, forgotten, or buried beneath the next. Eighteen years after the school closed, former student Cy Wistrom awakens from a mysterious coma with his childhood memories suddenly restored. Now he is ready to reveal what happened during Seacrist's final months.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

Teaching is about more than delivering content—it's about being present with students, noticing their needs, and working alongside colleagues to create meaningful learning experiences. In this episode, Doug Fisher shares insights into what it means to be truly present in teaching and how educators can be more intentional about the way they connect, collaborate, and respond to the people around them. From building strong relationships with students to working as a team with colleagues, this conversation highlights how teaching becomes more powerful when educators learn and grow together. Quotables "When a team feels efficient and effective, and we feel like we're making a difference together, that brings us joy.""Putting good systems in place, I think is really important.""The more time teachers spend in each others classroom, the more benefit it has academically for the outcome of students." About Doug Fisher Doug Fisher went from working at KFC and riding ambulances to pay his way through college to becoming a Professor of Education at San Diego State and writing a whole shelf of books on how learning actually happens. But here's the part that makes him different: he never left the classroom. He co-founded a school in 2007 and still teaches there today. Over the past 20 years, he has helped more than 100,000 educators improve how they teach. Through these experiences, he realized something that drives him CRAZY: education has never had more experts—and less advice that actually survives a real classroom. Because of this, teachers sit through endless PD sessions, nod along... and NOTHING changes for their students on Monday morning. So he decided to start helping educators the RIGHT way—with evidence-based practices like teacher clarity, gradual release of responsibility, and PLC+ that actually survive contact with real students.
