In today's Teaching Middle School ELA Podcast episode, we're tackling one of the most common classroom frustrations: teaching grammar in a way that actually sticks. We discuss why students often forget grammar rules when it comes time to write and share a simple three-part framework that helps them understand, practice, and apply grammar with confidence. If you're looking for a more effective approach to grammar instruction this school year, this episode is for you. Want to learn more about our approach?

Emily Dickinson was a letter writer before she was a poet. And it was through letters that she shared prose reflections–alternately humorous, provocative, affectionate, and philosophical–with her extensive community. While her letters often contain poems, and some letters consist entirely of a single poem, they also constitute a rich genre all their own. Through her correspondence, Dickinson appears in her many facets as a reader, writer, and thinker; social commentator and comedian; friend, neighbor, sister, and daughter. The Letters of Emily Dickinson (Belknap Press, 2024) is the first collected edition of the poet's correspondence since 1958. It presents all 1,304 of her extant letters, along with the small number available from her correspondents. Almost 300 are previously uncollected, including letters published after 1958, letters more recently discovered in manuscript, and more than 200 “letter-poems” that Dickinson sent to correspondents without accompanying prose. This edition also redates much of her correspondence, relying on records of Amherst weather patterns, historical events, and details about flora and fauna to locate the letters more precisely in time. Finally, updated annotations place Dickinson's writing more firmly in relation to national and international events, as well as the rhythms of daily life in her hometown. What emerges is not the reclusive Dickinson of legend but a poet firmly embedded in the political and literary currents of her time. Dickinson's letters shed light on the soaring and capacious mind of a great American poet and her vast world of relationships. This edition presents her correspondence anew, in all its complexity and brilliance. Guest: Dr. Cristanne Miller is SUNY Distinguished Professor and Edward H. Butler Professor of Literature, and serves on the advisory board of the Emily Dickinson Archive. Her scholarship on Dickinson includes Emily Dickinson: A Poet's Grammar; Emily Dickinson's Poems: As She Preserved Them; and The Letters of Emily Dickinson, which she co-edited with Domhnall Mitchell. Host: Dr. Christina Gessler is an academic writing coach and editor. She is the creator, producer and host of the Academic Life podcast.

Ep 289 Peacewarts: Resonant Charms - The Vocabulary of Dignity (Class 7) In class 7, we explore the "Vocabulary of Dignity" and the three core needs: to be seen, heard, and safe. We analyze Nelson Mandela's micro-practices of respect, including his "Future Self" language and his refusal to use sarcasm or public shaming. We discuss how honorifics and formal address can lower threat chemistry and keep negotiations focused on solutions rather than egos. Homework: Look up Nelson Mandela's first meeting with President P.W. Botha and find one detail about the etiquette Mandela used to preserve Botha's dignity. Write down one question about any of this episode's topics. If you don't have a question, write 'no question.' Optional: Journal about speaking to a difficult person's "Future Self." What is one sentence that protects their dignity while maintaining your truth? Books: If you'd like to read more on this subject, some book suggestions are Dignity: Its Essential Role in Resolving Conflict by Donna Hicks, which explores the ten core elements of human dignity and focuses heavily on how preserving or violating face determines the ultimate success of high-stakes diplomacy, and Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes Are High by Joseph Grenny, Kerry Patterson, and their coauthors, a widely recognized staple on creating the necessary psychological safety so people can speak honestly and directly without stripping away each other's dignity. Learning Topics: The Three Dignity Needs; Mandela's Grammar of Respect; Saving Face vs. Saving Power; The Language of Future Selves; The Non-Sarcasm Rule; Red lines spoken softly.

Prince is one of the preeminent scholars of his generation in the fields of narratology and of 20th and 21st century French literature. Prince’s books include Métaphysique et technique dans l’oeuvre romanesque de Sartre, A Grammar of Stories, Narratology: The Form and Functioning of Narrative, A Dictionary of Narratology, Narrative as Theme, Guide du Roman de Langue Française (1901-1950), and Guide du Roman de Langue Française (1951-2000).

Research has already shown that human attempts to multitask come with heavy costs. New research suggests other cognitive control activities also come with costs. In a classroom with many sources of potential distraction, how should practitioners help students put brain energy toward learning? Later, we read about classroom experiments that dispel the myth that interleaved practice can't work in language learning contexts. It seems well-designed interleaving is a nearly categorical good.

Thank you, Michael.M: That's okay. See you tomorrow.(Text10)W: Hello, everyone. Today I'll talk about how to improve your pronunciation. Language researchers say pronunciation and fluency are the biggest barriers, followed by grammar, ineffective spoken English. However, most people don't regard pronunciation as a very important part of communication skills. They're more focused on vocabulary. One reason is that most people are not even aware of their mispronunciations. So it's important to first find out the words you mispronounce. You should listen to experts, by experts, I mean those who are less likely to make pronunciation mistakes. When listening to them, pay attention to words that sound strange,strange because you pronounce the same words differently. When you come across such words, check a dictionary to confirm their exact pronunciations. You can also search for difficult-to-pronounce words and names, and make a list of them. The last suggestion is to read aloud. Now you've got the correct pronunciations of the words, it's time to practice reading them every day.

Welcome back!David Krut Podcast is pleased to return with a conversation between David Krut and one of our latest collaborating artists, Diego Masera. In this podcast the two discuss Masera's past, present practice and latest exhibition HOPE/Against the Grammar of Violence, opening on the 25th of July at David Krut Arts located at 151 Jan Smuts Avenue. Diego Masera is a former diplomat and cultural interlocutor whose work explores international exchange, social dialogue, and contemporary cultural production. Drawing on his background in international development, environmental policy, and work with communities affected by inequality and climate crisis, Masera approaches art as a form of knowledge capable of expressing what political and institutional language often cannot.In 2026, Masera and David Krut had a chance meeting where they found themselves discussing the artist's practice and his installation, Home – ikhaya, NIROX sculpture park. This encounter resulted in David extending and invitiation towards Masera to come into the workshop and explore printmaking. In March of that year, Masera began his collaboration with Roxy Kaczmarek, working on a body of monotypes and other works of paper.
The temperatures across the South are still scorching (as usual). World Cup Fever across the United States seems to be abating quite a bit today. The three host countries in North America (Canada, Mexico, and the United States) for the 2026 World Cup soccer advanced into the Round of 16. That was a pleasant surprise and some very good news for fans in North America. Sadly, the soccer teams for the three host countries all bit the dust over the past few days. None reached the quarterfinals, Elite Eight, or whatever the FIFA soccer people call this next round. Action on Saturday July 4th saw Canada get skunked 3-0 by tiny Morocco. The Moroccans converted on three of their four shots on goal to capture the win. Canada only attempted three shots on goal as they bowed out of this year’s competition. On Sunday, Mexico lost at home to England 3-2 in a very tightly contested match. The home team out passed England by a 2-1 margin. The number of completed passes by Mexico (418 to 195 for England) was impressive but didn’t lead to enough points. As golfers might translate, “Pass for show, but kick goals for dough.” The final host country bowed out of World Cup 26 on Monday in Seattle. World Cup host United States had all eyes focused on Seattle Monday evening for its Round of 16 game against Belgium. Team USA was coming off a raucous Independence Day weekend filled with fireworks and patriotic enthusiasm as the nation celebrated 250 years. Apparently, America’s soccer team failed to receive a fiery jingoistic pregame message. Belgium breezed to a surprisingly easy 4-1 win over an American team which looked like it had a case of World Cup stage fright on Monday night. The US was attempting to reach the quarterfinals (round of 8) for the first time since 2002. Belgium’s Red Devils (yes, that’s their nickname) had never even reached the quarterfinals – before Monday night’s game against Team USA. Despite having a very loud advantage playing in the home stadium of the NFL’s Seattle Seahawks, the American team laid a proverbial egg Monday night in losing 4-1 to Belgium. The team looked lethargic (overconfident, perhaps?) and did not appear ready for a game of this magnitude. Much like the European golfers have dominated golf’s Ryder Cup matches the past few decades, the European soccer teams seemed more cohesive and better prepared. The quarterfinals will feature seven European teams and just one South American squad. All of these games will be shown on FOX Television. Times are CDT: Thursday – France vs. Morocco (3PM) in Foxboro, MA Friday – Spain vs. Belgium (2PM) in Los Angeles, CA Saturday – Norway vs. England (4PM) in Miami, FL Saturday – Argentina vs. Switzerland (8PM) in Kansas City, MO Team USA’s bubble was burst on Monday night by a Belgian team which was not considered to be one of the top European squads. America once again proved that their team has exceptional ability, but their team resolve in tough matches isn’t quite as determined as other top competitors. Perhaps the US should hire Olympic Dream Team members such as Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, and Larry Bird to help prepare the soccer team next time? Question – Will Americans still watch the remaining World Cup games without Team USA involved? The World Cup soccer television ratings have been a success for FOX Sports. Last Wednesday’s 2-0 win by Team USA over Bosnia-Herzegovina drew 26 million viewers. Early reports indicated that more than 30 million viewers tuned into FOX on Monday night during the American team’s 4-1 loss to Belgium. That’s about 1/3 of the number of viewers for a Super Bowl game. That is quite impressive. The total exceeds the viewership of nearly every NFL regular season game. But… Are you planning to tune in for the afternoon quarterfinal games on Thursday and Friday? The next night game on the schedule won’t occur until Saturday night’s quarterfinal game in Kansas City featuring Argentina and Switzerland. The Swiss won a 0-0 game over Colombia Tuesday afternoon following a 4-3 shootout success. I will be surprised if World Cup soccer will lure 15 to 20 million American viewers for the upcoming quarterfinal round of games. Red Card Outrage! The US team was given (theoretically) an advantage before Monday’s game with Belgium. A dreaded Red Card was handed to an American player by a referee in the previous game after two players got their legs tangled-up. The Red Card would have disqualified the American player from participating on Monday night against Belgium. Following a call from US President Donald Trump asking for an executive review, a FIFA committee rescinded the Red Card and reinstated the American player. The Belgian team was outraged by that decision. It added more motivation to take down the US squad in Monday night’s game. Have you noticed the unique grammar involving World Cup sports stories? I was reading a news story posted on ESPN Sunday and ran across the following sentences (among many): “Norway were stronger, better organized, and more capable with the ball.” “Norway are a very good team” What is going on here? Who is writing this stuff? The best answer I could find is that Europeans (who speak “proper” English, of course) refer to their national soccer/football team as if it was a plural noun. I’m not picking on ESPN in particular for this odd writing style during the World Cup. Other major news outlets have been doing the same thing. I’ll counter with this suggestion. If the soccer match is being played in Europe, write the story any way you prefer. That’s fine. When the game is being played in Kansas City, Missouri, or another American city, please write your story utilizing the preferred grammar used by American readers. Fakery Bakery is open for business again this year at the World Cup Soccer is played without protective pads except around the lower legs. Contact between the players while they run at full speed or jump into the air to hit the ball with their head is inevitable. Legitimate sports injuries affect every team. However, the sport continues to hone fakery to new levels of acting in order to draw a penalty from the game’s referees. Feigning an injury on the field to draw a sympathetic penalty from the refs has become too commonplace in soccer. A 0-0 defensive struggle like Tuesday’s epic (Zzzz…) between Switzerland and Colombia can tempt players to feign injury to help their team get a better shot on goal. Winning a “World Cup Academy Award” in the category of Overacting seems to be a must for many players. For fun, keep your eyes on those “injured” players. Once they receive that penalty call on an opponent, their injured leg, back, or other body part seems to heal almost immediately. It’s a miracle! Mexican fans performed their version of the Texas A&M Aggies’ Midnight Yell Mexican soccer fans pulled out all the stops last week in trying to win their World Cup games in Mexico City. During some recent games, the home team’s zealous fans camped outside of the hotel which was hosting the opposing team. From late at night until the wee hours of the next morning, a throng of Mexican fans threw a loud party replete with Mariachi bands, singing, chanting, and air horns all night long. They were trying to disrupt the sleep of the team’s next day opponent. The Mexican fans’ version of a Texas A&M Midnight Yell practice was in excessively bad taste and displayed rather poor sportsmanship. In the end, England ended Mexico’s midnight serenade with a 3-2 win to eliminate the host country. Life is much quieter today in Mexico City.

What happens when film directors reject Hollywood realism and start treating the movie screen like a hand-drawn comic book page?In this special One Shot episode, Laramy is joined by his co-host and wife, Bethany, to break down the concept of Panel-to-Frame Grammar. We aren't talking about movie reviews or standard comic adaptations—we are diving deep into the visual pacing, structural continuity, and framing tricks that original films steal straight from the world of sequential art.Join us as we discuss:Wes Anderson and the rigid, symmetrical "flat page" design of masterpieces like The Fantastic Mr. Fox.Edgar Wright's hyper-kinetic editing rhythm in Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, and how it paved his way to Scott Pilgrim and Ant-Man.How The Wachowskis literally had to pitch The Matrix to studio executives as a 600-page comic book storyboard to get it made.Kevin Smith's View Askewniverse (Clerks, Mallrats) and how he mapped the DNA of comic book continuity onto live-action indie cinema.Do you prefer a movie that looks like a comic book page, or one that breathes like a comic book universe?

Come sempre, la prima parte della trasmissione è dedicata alle notizie di attualità. Il primo argomento riguarda le celebrazioni per il 250° anniversario della Dichiarazione d'Indipendenza degli Stati Uniti. I festeggiamenti sono in pieno svolgimento a Washington e in tutte le parti del Paese. Ma per chi di noi ricorda i festeggiamenti del 1976 per il 200° anniversario degli Stati Uniti, questa ricorrenza ha lo stesso significato? Proseguiremo, poi, con una discussione sulla rete di rifugi climatici in Spagna. Spiegheremo di cosa si tratta e perché a questa iniziativa viene attribuito il merito di aver salvato delle vite. La nostra sezione scientifica sarà dedicata alla risata. Non semplicemente alla risata che tutti noi conosciamo e apprezziamo. Parleremo di uno studio che ha esaminato le radici ritmiche della risata tra le scimmie antropomorfe e gli esseri umani. E concluderemo la prima parte della trasmissione con una celebrazione mondiale del Global Beatles Day. La seconda parte di questa puntata è dedicata alla lingua e alla cultura italiana. L'argomento grammaticale di oggi è The si passivante with Various Tenses, che esploreremo attraverso un dibattito su un tema di grande attualità: la recente proposta del nuovo sindaco di Venezia di aumentare ulteriormente il contributo d'ingresso alla città. Una soluzione che da subito ha fatto molto discutere. Nel finale, poi, daremo spazio all'espressione idiomatica del giorno, Fare di testa propria. La ritroveremo all'interno di un dialogo dedicato al caso di un gelato venduto a prezzo esorbitante nel centro di Roma: una vicenda che ha suscitato molto clamore ed è diventata l'occasione per discutere di trasparenza, libero mercato e reputazione dell'Italia agli occhi dei turisti. - L'America festeggia il suo 250° compleanno - A una rete di centri di accoglienza climatici in Spagna viene attribuito il merito di aver salvato delle vite - Uno studio analizza le radici ritmiche della risata nelle scimmie antropomorfe e negli esseri umani - Chi era davvero il Tricheco? - Venezia a 50 euro: il prezzo della bellezza o dell'esclusione? - Roma e la polemica sui gelati da 44 euro

Are you spending more energy on SAT scores than on your child's character — and wondering if you've got your priorities backward? In this episode of the Everyday Educator podcast, host Amy Jones sits down with 15-year CC veteran Rachel Thompson and co-host Delise Germond to make the case that true college readiness isn't built in a testing center — it's built in community, around the Word, one habit at a time. Rachel shares what she's learned raising three CC kids — including a college senior — and why the skills colleges now prize most (resilience, collaboration, empathy, and perseverance) are the very things Classical Conversations builds from Foundations all the way through Challenge. From CC's community triangle to the Odyssey post-graduate program, Rachel and Delise walk through how classical Christian homeschooling quietly equips students for everything that comes after the diploma. Delise reflects on her own college experience — the misconceptions she carried in and the ones the Lord had to correct along the way — offering honest encouragement for moms who want to start well, even with a houseful of littles. Whether your oldest is four or seventeen, this episode will refocus your homeschool on what actually matters: knowing God, seeking Him first, and trusting that the second things will follow. You don't need a perfect transcript. You need a child on a scavenger hunt for their Creator. This episode of Everyday Educator is sponsored by: Classical Conversations just released "The Habits of a Classical Education"—the long-awaited successor to "The Core." This resource helps you naturally integrate the Five Core Habits into daily life, enabling classical, Christian education where relationships and lifelong learning flourish. It's here!

Missionary Evangelist Robert Breaker shows what perhaps are the 2 most important words in the Gospel in 1 Cor. 15:1-4, and those words are "how that." They come from one Greek word "hoti" which means "HOW" or "How that" in biblical Greek. (Today, however, most run to modern Greek and claim it only means "that.") He further shows that "how that" is a "subordinating conjunction" which means it ties in what Paul says BEFORE IT to what he says RIGHT AFTER IT! With all this together, IT WITHOUT A DOUBT POINTS TO THE BLOOD ATONEMENT OF JESUS!!! In this video, he deals with the GREEK word, the GRAMMAR of how the word is used, the GUYS who translated the King James Bible (who know languages and how to translate them), and how GOD gave us that word and the translation of it as "how that" for a reason. This video further proves that it's absolute heresy to say things like the following: "The Blood's not found in the Gospel in 1 Cor. 15:1-4" "The word 'how' doesn't mean how Jesus died, nor does it refer to the blood atonement." "The word 'how' isn't translated correctly and shouldn't be in the passage." " 'How that' doesn't literally mean HOW that Jesus died in a bloody manner." "The gospel is only about trusting in the death of Jesus and not trusting in the blood of Jesus." The PROOF given in this video shows that these are absolute fallacies and should not be given any place. Anyone teaching them should be viewed as heretics with false doctrine. The BLOOD is the life of the Gospel and should NEVER be left out!
Iniziamo la trasmissione con una discussione sugli eventi di attualità. Il Primo Ministro britannico si è dimesso a soli due anni dalla sua schiacciante vittoria elettorale. C'è una lezione da trarre per i leader del mondo occidentale? È il segnale di una crisi delle democrazie occidentali? La nostra seconda notizia riguarda gli incessanti insulti di Trump ai leader europei. Ne hanno abbastanza? L'ultimo attacco rivolto al Presidente del Consiglio italiano rappresenta un punto di svolta? La sezione scientifica sarà dedicata a un affascinante studio che spiega perché alcune farfalle vivono 25 volte più a lungo di altre. Infine, parleremo di una crisi che ha colpito Boston. I bar della città sono rimasti senza birra! La seconda parte di questa puntata è dedicata alla lingua e alla cultura italiana. L'argomento grammaticale di oggi è The Passive Voice and the si passivante, che esploreremo attraverso un dibattito su una recente decisione della Corte di Cassazione italiana: il diritto dei ristoranti di rifiutare ai clienti l'acqua del rubinetto, una sentenza che ha sollevato parecchie perplessità. Nel finale, poi, daremo spazio all'espressione idiomatica del giorno, Cercare col lanternino. La ritroveremo all'interno di un dialogo dedicato alla splendida spiaggia di Punta Molentis, in Sardegna — un angolo di paradiso dalle acque turchesi, amatissimo da chi cerca mare incontaminato e natura selvaggia. Quest'estate, però, chi vorrà visitarla dovrà rinunciare all'ombrellone: una misura che, come immaginate, sta facendo discutere. - I leader occidentali sono minacciati dalle stesse forze che hanno portato alle dimissioni di Starmer - I leader europei stanno finalmente tenendo testa agli incessanti insulti di Trump? - Gli scienziati studiano perché alcune farfalle vivono 25 volte più a lungo di altre - Boston rimane vittima felice dell'invasione scozzese - Acqua del rubinetto al ristorante: in Italia non è un diritto - Mare, sole e polemiche: il caso Punta Molentis

Stop Sending Emails You'll Regret How to Avoid Toxic Emails and Proptect Your Reputation Episode 311 (repeat of #134, Liz is based in L.A.) In this conversation with Liz Danziger we explore: why writing begins with thinking defining your purpose before writing identifying the reader's priorities choosing the right communication medium avoiding emotional emails writing persuasive business messages reducing email length placing your request where readers see it improving credibility through grammar using appreciation to increase response rates editing before sending the three Ps: purpose, person and point ----- About our guest, Liz Danziger: Liz is the author of four books published by major publishers including the business writing guide, "Get To The Point". She has decades of experience in helping teams to write clearly and confidently. Follow her on Linkedin https://www.linkedin.com/in/elizabethdanziger/ ----- Key Learning Points: Most writing problems begin before the first word is written. Define your purpose before you begin writing. Know your main point before you start typing. Always write with the reader in mind. Business writing serves three primary purposes: inform, request or persuade. Keep emails short and focused. Place your main request near the beginning of the email. Repeat the request at the end of the email. Match your writing style to your reader's preferences. Avoid emotional emails whenever possible. Read every important email aloud before sending it. Apply the "You Idiot Rule" to test the tone of an email. Grammar mistakes reduce credibility. Long emails are rarely read. Separate detailed information into attachments when appropriate. Thanking people increases the likelihood of a positive response. Purpose, Person and Point provide a practical framework for better communication. Shorter sentences improve readability. Reread every message before sending. For important messages, wait before editing whenever possible. ----- ----more---- Your Intended Message is the podcast about how you can boost your career and business success by honing your communication skills. We'll examine the aspects of how we communicate one-to-one, one to few and one to many – plus that important conversation, one to self. In these interviews we will explore presentation skills, public speaking, conversation, persuasion, negotiation, sales conversations, marketing, team meetings, social media, branding, self talk and more.

In this episode of the Everyday Educator podcast, host Delise sits down with Mercy Koimburi, a Kenyan Classical Conversations homeschool mom and professional photographer, to explore how creativity, faith, and classical education are more connected than you might think. Mercy shares how she discovered photography at age 11, how she uses it to capture emotion and tell stories of family and faith, and why she believes God placed that gift in her long before she had a name for it. From the math hidden inside every great photo — hello, Fibonacci sequence! — to how CC's classical framework shows up through her lens, this conversation is full of warm encouragement for homeschool moms who want to nurture the gifts in themselves and in their children. Mercy also opens up about her CC community in Kenya, what homeschool days look like on the other side of the world, and the Bible verses that have carried her through the hard days of the journey. Whether you have a budding young artist at home or you're still figuring out how your own gifts fit into your homeschool life, Mercy's story will leave you inspired and equipped. You don't have to have it all figured out — he gently leads those who have young. Tune in and be encouraged.

Shannon and Mary record their Season 8 finale, catching up on what they've been doing during the school year. They've both been busy with balancing personal and professional responsibilities, with work hours increasing for Shannon in tutoring and for Mary in advocacy work and supporting parents in IEP meetings. In their tutoring practices, they're both advancing beyond decoding work with many of their students, and during the discussion, they both realized they had adopted sentence-composing activities, inspired by 8.8's guest, Sara Lee. During the discussion, they detail how their students use literature-based model sentences and scaffolded imitation to build sentence skills, comprehension, and vocabulary. Shannon describes how she adds language support using English Linking Blocks and word lists. The discussion then highlights their excitement about UFLI's upcoming structured morphology curriculum, Word Origins (adapted from Australia). In the episode chat, they also touch on the AMIRA screener, Mary's recent SWI professional learning through Word Torque, and how they're both supporting students' math knowledge and skills in their tutoring.
