On this week's mini-episode, I'd like to challenge you to get your students set up on Canva and help them get comfortable on the platform with a simple assignment that will give you a great fall display, literary travel posters. Have you seen PBS' The Great Read posters, which are available for free download on the PBS site? I'll link them in the show notes. They're fabulous. Each poster invites the viewer into a literary world. “Join Don Quixote on an Epic Quest” is overlaid on a lovely background of receding windmills with a small warning note, “Be Wary of Hulking Giants.” “Visit Wonderland” is fixed above a drawing of Alice falling down between purple mushrooms, with the catchy tagline, “See as many as six impossible things before breakfast!” The series includes Dune, Narnia, Harry Potter, 1984, Huck Finn, Gatsby, and more. They're stellar additions to your classroom decor, for sure, but they also lend themselves beautifully as visual mentor texts for this little project. Ask students to choose a book that's been meaningful to them in the past, one with a richly imagined setting. Show them the PBS posters and ask them what components seem consistent across the posters. Ask them to consider which posters they find most appealing and why, then use similar components in designing their own, on Canva.  If you're new to Canva, I'm going to link a free step-by-step course I made for you so you can easily learn the basics that will help you and your students with a project like this.  Starting with a simple project like this one is a great way to get everyone oriented onto the platform and help students warm up to design work, at the same time that you create a fun book-focused set of posters you can use on your door, in your hallway, or around your classroom library.  OK, that's a wrap on today's quick episode. I hope you're heading over now to set up a free Canva for Education account if you don't have one yet! And no, I'm still not sponsored by them, but feel free to suggest me to any Canva Executives you know.   Check out PBS' The Great Read Poster Series: https://www.pbs.org/the-great-american-read/resources/downloads/ Take the free Canva Confidence Course: https://sparkcreativity.kartra.com/page/getCanvaconfidence  See an example poster I designed (guess what book it's from!):   Go Further:  Explore alllll the Episodes of The Spark Creativity Teacher Podcast.

As the mother of a son, I understand the challenges of raising boys to become good and godly men. When my son was young, I was always second guessing myself and wishing I had a blueprint to help me, and my husband know the best way to lead him down the right path towards manhood. This episode is a resource I wish was available then. My guests today, Erin and Jason Davis, parents of four boys themselves, have recently released their book, Lies Boys Believe: And the Epic Quest for Truth. In this episode they share why giving our boys a foundation based on truth will help them navigate our difficult culture, how we should encourage our sons to have hearts that please God, not just behave in a way they won't get caught, as well as developing a no-secrets family. I also asked several moms of boys if they had questions for the Davis's and they had some great ones! Erin and Jason were so gracious to answer as many as they could and so this episode is a little longer than most. But I know you're probably struggling with some of these same questions, so I wanted to make sure we addressed them. They have so many practical ideas on how to connect with boys that I know you're going to come away from this episode better equipped and more confident to be the best boy parent you can be.

Who's Your Founding Father?: One Man's Epic Quest to Uncover the First, True Declaration of Independence by David Fleming https://amzn.to/43Kx0k2 A centuries-old secret document might unravel the origin story of America and reveal the intellectual crime of the millennia in this epic dive into our country's history to discover the first, true Declaration of Independence. In 1819 John Adams came across a stunning story in his hometown Essex Register that he breathlessly described to his political frenemy Thomas Jefferson as “one of the greatest curiosities and one of the deepest mysteries that ever occurred to me…entitled the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence. The genuine sense of America at that moment was never so well expressed before, nor since.” The story claimed that a full 14 months before Jefferson crafted his own Declaration of Independence, a misfit band of zealous Scots-Irish patriots, whiskey-loving Princeton scholars and a fanatical frontier preacher in a remote corner of North Carolina had become the first Americans to formally declare themselves “free and independent” from England. Composed during a clandestine all-night session inside the Charlotte courthouse, the Mecklenburg Declaration was signed on May 20, 1775—a date that's still featured on the state flag of North Carolina. A year later, in 1776, Jefferson is believed to have plagiarized the MecDec while composing his own, slightly more famous Declaration and then, as he was wont to do, covered the whole thing up. Which is exactly why Adams always insisted the MecDec needed to be “thoroughly investigated” and “more universally made known to the present and future generation.” Eleven U.S. Presidents and many of today's most respected historical scholars agree. Now, with Who's Your Founding Father?, David Fleming picks up where Adams left off, leaving no archive, no cemetery, no bizarre clue or wild character (and definitely no Dunkin' Donuts) unexplored while traveling the globe to bring to life one of the most fantastic, important—and controversial—stories in American history.In 1819 John Adams came across a stunning story in his hometown Essex Register.

The genuine sense of America at that moment was never so well expressed before, nor since.” The story claimed that a full 14 months before Jefferson crafted his own Declaration of Independence, a misfit band of zealous Scots-Irish patriots, whiskey-loving Princeton scholars, and a fanatical frontier preacher had joined forces in a remote corner of North Carolina to become the first Americans to formally declare themselves “free and independent” from England. Composed during a clandestine all-night session inside the Charlotte courthouse, the Mecklenburg Declaration, aka the MecDec, was signed on May 20, 1775—a date that's still featured on the state flag of North Carolina. About a year later, in 1776, Jefferson is believed to have plagiarized the MecDec while composing his own, slightly more famous Declaration, and then, as he was wont to do, covered the whole thing up.

Is it what your friends say? How does someone know for sure if they are a boy or not?It'll take an Epic Quest, sardine pancakes, and macho manicures for Vac to learn that there's no one right way to be a boy, or a girl, or anything else, and that the person who knows you best—is you!For activities based on this episode, have your grown-up sign up for our weekly Wednesday newsletter—but right now, get ready to find out who likes lemonade, who can do a thousand-and-one pushups, and who's a pretty bird on today's exciting episode of The Imagine Neighborhood™!

Navigating a negotiation is an epic but daunting quest to reach an important purpose - like Frodo Baggins' journey to destroy the One Ring.    There's so much about his journey that we can extract and apply to our own quest to get paid what we're worth - from the resources we need, to the perils we'll need to avoid to reach our destination.    In this episode, I'm going to share some negotiation nuggets that came out of my recent binge watch of The Lord of the Rings movies.     Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode    - The resources we can use to better our outcome Frodo needed a team to reach his destination, how do we assemble the people and resources that make it easier?    - How to get ahead of obstacles  What readymade strategies and suggestions can we equip ourselves with to circumvent barriers?    - Why we have to be careful about what we share The ring entices and corrupts, so Frodo had to be careful who he could trust. How do we know who to trust in our own negotiations?
