In this week's WAB podcast, we have the pleasure of hosting Grade 4 student Aubrey and Grade 8 student Dakota, along with Elementary School teacher Suzie Sizemore and Middle School counselor Rachel George. They will be sharing their experiences in Grade 4 to Grade 8 Buddy Program, its goals, how it worked and its impact. Aubrey from Fourth Grade shared how much fun she had participating in the Buddy Program. By connecting with her eighth-grade mentor, she gained a deeper understanding of what middle schoolers are like and discovered the many ways they are similar. Aubrey emphasized that the more she understood her buddy, the stronger their connection became. Grade 4 teacher Suzie highlighted that for Elementary School students, it's beneficial to have a connection with an international peer learner from our web community who has already experienced different grades. Fourth graders are provided with role models to look up to, who can guide them, provide feedback, and share their unique perspectives as international learners. Rachel, the Head of Middle School Counseling, highlighted that the Buddy Program aims to facilitate the social-emotional learning (SEL) curriculum, which includes self-awareness, social awareness, and relationship skills. Observing Grade 8 students in action and applying those skills while mentoring younger students allows them to practice and internalize these valuable abilities. Grade 8 student Dokata pointed out that through participating in various activities, she and her mentee discovered common interests and similarities, despite the grade gap. She also acknowledged the positive impact of the Buddy Program on her own development of social-emotional learning skills. To learn more about the Grade 4 and 8 Buddy program, be sure to tune in to this episode.

In this guided meditation led by Julie Potiker, you will shift your awareness to your senses; what you see, hear, feel, and taste while in meditation. She completes the meditation with a poem by Brad Aaron Modlin.What You Missed That Day You Were Absent from Fourth Grade, by Brad Aaron Modlin.Mrs. Nelson explained how to stand still and listento the wind, how to find meaning in pumping gas,how peeling potatoes can be a form of prayer. She tookquestions on how not to feel lost in the dark.After lunch she distributed worksheetsthat covered ways to remember your grandfather'svoice. Then the class discussed falling asleepwithout feeling you had forgotten to do something else -something important -and how to believethe house you wake in is your home. This promptedMrs. Nelson to draw a chalkboard diagram detailinghow to chant the Psalms during cigarette breaks,and how not to squirm for sound when your own thoughtsare all you hear; also, that you have enough.The English lesson was that I am is a complete sentence.And just before the afternoon bell, she made the math equationlook easy. The one that proves that hundreds of questions,are feeling cold, and all those nights spent lookingfor whatever it was you lost, and one person.add up to something.-What You Missed That Day You Were Absent from Fourth Grade, by Brad Aaron Modlin, from "Poetry of Presence II; More Mindfulness Poems", edited by Phyllis Cole-Dai & Ruby R.

This is a special podcast I wrote as a follow-up after visiting Mrs. Webb's third-grade classroom to speak about what I do. It was a wonderful experience, the children asked a lot of good questions, and had a lot of great insights already into what it takes to become better, stronger, and wiser. It's my hope to do more events like this in my life!
When she joined Rice Business in 2017, Jillian Fink was in the process of founding OcciGuide, the first device used in the emergency care setting to treat migraines, a neurological condition that disproportionately impacts women. In her role as CEO, Jillian navigated the complexities of the healthcare system to get her medical device approved by the FDA, including designing clinical trials using real-world data, navigating U.S. healthcare treatment paradigms, and developing creative strategies to commercialize the device during the COVID-19 pandemic. In this episode, the healthcare entrepreneur joins host Maya Pomroy to share her story of pivoting from elementary education to co-founding and leading a medical device startup company. She talks about her unconventional path, her advice to those considering a pivot in entrepreneurship, and how she invests her time in giving back to the community.The Owl Have You Know Podcast is a production of Rice University Jones Graduate School of Business and is produced by University FM.Episode Quotes:On understanding the value of listening08:40: [Maya] Was OcciGuide something that was already on the horizon for you? Or, is this something that developed while you were in school? [Jillian] It was very, very, very early; we'd been talking about the potential for it. And then there were actually some of our professors at Rice, or my professors at Rice, who thought it was interesting. And there's a tech entrepreneurship class, or was when I was there, that we got to run it through the class and do some of that really early market research, Lean Canvas development, or whatnot. I got to work with my classmates on it, which was great because I had so many smart classmates, and all of their contributions were just so fun and helpful to be able to partner with them. And then it grew from there.An advice for women entrepreneurs17:08: With everything in business or life, finding mentors and people who can be a resource to help you answer questions and also have already identified pathways is so important. There are amazing women out there to find that can provide that support, but there are also men who can also provide that support, and that shouldn't be overlooked.On understanding the value of listening17:08: It's so important to listen and not get caught up in getting your message out there, regardless of what other people are saying, but actually to hear what people are saying and respond accordingly, in that non-emotional, non-angry way, but just to have that dialogue, and people will respond to that.Show Links:Guest Profile:Jillian LinkedInOther Links: Fem Health Insights OcciGuide American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC)

2.26.2023 - Mrs. Jane Dargatz, my Fourth Grade Teacher from Carol Stream Elementary School in Illinois, traveled out to see Yachtley Crew play at PALMS Casino in Las Vegas! She was accompanied by her Husband, along with Rene Eastin (who I met and have known since meeting her in Mrs. Dargatz's class) and her Husband Jason. It was an additional momentous occasion because my Dad and his girlfriend Kris were in town, and so was my girlfriend Kili'kina. As Jane brought out old books she's kept since her first days as a teacher, we cartwheeled a trip down memory lane looking at the class photos from our field trips of yesteryears. Rene and I found our youngerselves in a few actually! Jane had been on a mission to meet up with several former schoolkids during her brief stay there in Nevada and I was one of them! Iam honoured to be included on that itinerary! I was VERY surprised to hear about the particular unexpected directions different classmates took along the years. She kept up with all of them, it seemed. She remembered soo many of their names, parents'/siblings' names, the kids they went on to have, where they lived and what their careers are. I was impressed! I felt like were were characters in an epic novel series she was reading. We never know how life will evolve and the ways in which we'll meet back up again decades down the road! Reconnecting with Rene and Jane at the same time really threw me for a very pleasant loop, nay...a Mobius Strip! Iam still caught in the Fever of it!

How can you invite pleasure to be a part of your creative practice? In this bonus episode with professor and poet Brad Aaron Modlin we talk about his heart-opening, blood pumping, joy-raising way to start a creative day; ways to dismantle our fear of not being good enough; and how changing the genre can open surprising doors. Brad Aaron Modlin's book Everyone at This Party Has Two Names won The Cowles Poetry Prize. His poetry has been the text for orchestral scores; the springboard for an NYC art exhibition; and the focus of an episode of The Slowdown with U.S. Poet Laureate Ada Limón. The premier episode of Poetry Unbound with Pádraig Ó Tuama was about his poem “What You Missed That Day You Were Absent from Fourth Grade.” An Associate Professor of poetry, he teaches graduates and undergrads both in-person and online; coordinates the visiting writers series; and forgets where in the classroom he left his flip-flops. www.bradaaronmodlin.com This is a public episode.
