Southeastern San Diego residents have long sought help with stormwater management. Infrastructure inequities have plagued southern neighborhoods that hug the I-5. They've pleaded to local leaders for solutions. Now, after the Jan. 22 deluge hit underserved streets — and after more rain this week — they may finally see momentum. This week, we discuss San Diego's stormwater system deficit. And San Diego City Council President Sean Elo-Rivera proposed a solution: a ballot measure to fund stormwater projects. Plus: MTS dropped its big report into former County Supervisor Nathan Fletcher and former MTS employee Grecia Figueroa. See you next Thursday! We'll be at Modern Times for a live show. Get tickets: vosd.org/eventsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Late last week, we got new filings in a lawsuit against former County Supervisor Nathan Fletcher — including Instagram messages between Fletcher and the woman who accused him of sexual harassment and sexual assault. The two exchanged hundreds of messages and planned ways they could be alone. The messages show the woman, Grecia Figueroa, expressed interest on several occasions, including after the encounters she said were abusive. This week, we review the messages to try to answer a question we've had since the scandal broke: What happened between Figueroa and Fletcher? Further, we try to determine why the Metropolitan Transit System fired Figueroa. (MTS released its report the day after we recorded this show. We wrote about it here.) Plus: The rain that rocked San Diego, destroyed homes and will be a new crisis for leaders to manage.

In this second part of the podcast, Sharon and team, and their guest, Grace, delve into various strategies for nurturing writing skills in Foundation year students. One key concept introduced is the use of "sentence stems." These stems provide young children with simple sentence starters, helping them initiate their writing and incorporate high-frequency words. The ultimate aim is to develop reading and writing fluency with 25+ high-frequency words by the end of the Foundation year.The importance of a "word wall" is discussed, enabling students to independently reference high-frequency words and take ownership of their spelling. Alphabet strips and individualised tools for letter formation are introduced, allowing students to practise and reinforce their letter-writing skills and fostering a sense of ownership.Grace and her students have transitioned from single-page writing to creating books, instilling a sense of authenticity and pride in their work. They've even turned a class project into a physical book to be shared.The concept of allowing students to continue working on their writing or adding more details to their drawings when they finish quickly is highlighted. This approach keeps students engaged and prevents rushing through their work to gain free time.Sharing and reflecting on their writing is emphasised, with shared reading and paired reading, encouraging students to take pride in their work and strive for improvement.Throughout the podcast, Grace underscores the value of mentor texts, where authors serve as teachers for young writers. Literature is used to inspire students and showcase excellent writing examples, encouraging them to draw from these texts to enhance their own writing.The hosts stress the significance of creating a positive learning culture and focusing on individual student progress rather than rigidly predefined goals. This approach fosters independence and a love for writing.The podcast also presents ten key elements for teaching writing, such as building confidence in drawing and writing, generating writing ideas, self-evaluation, promoting independent work, exploring techniques from other writers, and self-identifying as a writer. They emphasise the importance of fostering a classroom environment where students are enthusiastic about writing and deeply connected to the content.Grace's commitment to professional development and her thoughtful classroom choices are commended. In summary, the podcast highlights the transformative power of recognising children as writers, enabling students to view themselves as writers, and nurturing their writing skills through a combination of strategies and a supportive, encouraging learning environment.RESOURCESAnalysing Early Writing: Spelling, F-2 (Teachific) JOIN CUE LEARNING'S NEXT LIVE WEBINAR!Join our  upcoming Zoom event.and online courses can be found here.Other matching PDF resources are here.Got any questions?

In this podcast, literacy expert Sharon Callen and team welcome special guest Grace Cullen, a Foundation/ Reception teacher at Littlehampton Primary School. They discuss the challenges and strategies for teaching early writing to young students. Grace shares her experience transitioning from a structured program to a more student-centred approach to writing.Grace emphasises the importance of tapping into students' interests to ignite their passion for writing.

She also highlights the significance of valuing and publishing students' work, giving them a real sense of being writers and sharing their creations with an audience.The conversation touches on the curriculum and how it encourages students to view themselves as writers who can communicate their thoughts, feelings, and ideas.

The side-by-side coaching model is recognised as a valuable tool for helping teachers navigate the transition to student-centred writing instruction.The speakers emphasise the importance of enabling students to notice, explore, and engage with literature to develop their writing abilities. By using books as tools to introduce new sounds and patterns, they encourage students to become word 'noticers'. Their approach emphasises fostering bravery, resilience, and intentionality in writing, providing young learners with a strong foundation for their future educational journeys. Additionally, they incorporate phonics knowledge and the multi-sound capabilities of letters to support students at various learning levels.Overall, the podcast underscores the importance of fostering a love of writing by connecting it to students' interests, providing independence through classroom resources, and using the curriculum as a guideline while adapting to students' needs and abilities.

In Part 1 of this podcast, expert educators Diane Snowball and Keay Cobbin discuss the science of reading. They emphasise that the science of reading is a term used by various educational communities and can have different interpretations. They provide definitions from reputable sources, highlighting that it encompasses multidisciplinary knowledge from educators, linguistics, cognitive psychology, special education, and neuroscience about how children learn to read.They discuss common misconceptions, such as equating the science of reading with a specific phonics program, and the challenges this can create in education. They emphasise the importance of continually updating knowledge because the science of reading is always evolving.The podcast also delves into different models of the reading process, including the Simple View of Reading, Scarborough's Reading Rope, and the Active View of Reading. These models are seen as valuable tools for understanding reading but are not a one-size-fits-all solution. The discussion highlights that teachers need strong content knowledge and pedagogical skills to apply these models effectively in the classroom.Keay and Diane then discuss the importance of providing students with independent reading and writing time. They stress the need for explicit instruction during this time, ensuring that students understand how to apply what they learn in their own reading and writing. They reference the National Reading Panel's five major components for successful reading: phonemic awareness, phonics, comprehension, vocabulary, and fluency. They highlight the significance of providing balance in a  reading program that integrates systematic phonics instruction with other reading elements. Vocabulary instruction is discussed, with an emphasis on morphology and building vocabulary through reading. The evolving understanding of these components over time is acknowledged.Overall, the podcast emphasises the importance of staying informed about the evolving science of reading and using this knowledge to inform teaching practices tailored to the needs of individual students. Stay tuned for Part 2.Links to resources coming soon!Diane Snowball is a prominent educator, based in Melbourne, with 56 years of experience across various education levels.

Senior investigative reporter Will Huntsberry joins us to discuss his new investigation. He revealed a fake nonprofit that operated concession stands in Petco Park for nine years, earning a cut of the profits. A snapshot of the earning potential just this year shows the nonprofit, "Chula Vista Fast Pitch," worked enough concession stands to pull in $370,000. On the show this week, we review the story — including the nature of nonprofit vendor work at Petco (and Snapdragon Stadium), how this fake nonprofit came to be, who was behind it, who's ultimately responsible and the fallout after the story broke.

San Diego's men's soccer team — San Diego Loyal of the United Soccer League — announced this will be their final season. In May, a coalition of investors bought into Major League Soccer and had their own announcement: a new team is coming to town. They have squeezed out San Diego Loyal. This week, KPBS's Andrew Dyer — a local soccer nut and host of the San Diego Loyal Locals podcast — joins us to review the recent history of local soccer. We take it back to 2018 and the failed Soccer City project, discuss highlights of the Loyal's legacy and how San Diego State University steered local soccer to where we are now. Plus: Hurricane Hilary. The latest in the Nathan Fletcher lawsuits. And a new "Song of the Week."

San Diego City Councilwoman Monica Montgomery Steppe is commanding a big lead in the special election to replace Nathan Fletcher on the Board of Supervisors. Amy Reichert is also going to the November runoff election. On the podcast, we discuss the results, the race thus far and look ahead at a weird race in a heavily Democratic district. Also riding high: Parents, students and educators gear up for a new school year. Host Jakob McWhinney shares the big school stories he's watching.

More uncertainty looms over the Metropolitan Transit Agency. In this episode, we discuss this week's votes at MTS to try to install a permanent board chair after the Nathan Fletcher scandal. San Diego City Councilman Stephen Whitburn, in Fletcher's absence, is acting chair. But no one got enough votes to clinch the gig.  It was a harsh rebuke of Whitburn by his Council colleagues — two of whom sit on the board, and one acting as an alternate for the mayor, voted against him. Per MTS rules, Whitburn will be interim chair for another month before voting resumes. Plus: San Diego City Councilman Kent Lee asks a lot of questions about the homeless camping ordinance. And reporter Will Huntsberry lays out his new investigation.

This week, we recap the latest from the fallout of County Supervisor Nathan Fletcher as the Board of Supervisors cast a "no confidence" vote and paused the process to hire a new chief administrative officer for the county — one of the most important things they would do this year. And Voice multimedia journalist Ariana Drehsler joins the show to talk about her new photo essay, "The Faces of Homelessness." It was a timely piece as the San Diego City Council is working to crack down on homeless camps. Meanwhile, the city aims to supply more shelter options — but is struggling to find permanent homes for people already in those shelters.
