Send us a textWhat happens when students haven't been taught the math yet—but the task is right there waiting? In this episode, I unpack the fear many teachers feel before launching a rich task and explains why that hesitation, while understandable, often blocks the very learning we want. If you've ever wondered whether your students are “ready,” this conversation will gently shift how you think about readiness and learning.When we trust students to begin with what they know, incredible learning unfolds. Thanks for showing up for kids—and for yourself—as a math teacher willing to grow.
Locals are protesting last week's fatal ICE shooting in Minneapolis, while officials wrestle with how to keep residents safe as the Trump administration continues its immigration crackdown. In Montgomery County, elected leaders are proposing a law limiting cooperation with federal immigration authorities. County Executive Marc Elrich joined the show to discuss the Trust Act, and how the county is working to protect its most vulnerable residents.The Trust Act extends county services to all residents regardless of immigration status and prevents local police from working with federal immigration authorities in certain circumstances, including participating in federal immigration raids. County Executive Marc Elrich said that's the extent of the county's power.“If ICE was just generally saying they're gonna go into a workplace and they get into the workplace and they're going to pull out workers, we can't intervene," Elrich said.The county council expects to vote on the Trust Act within the next few months. Plus, we discuss Elrich's plans for funding county schools and federal cuts.A D.C. Council committee released a report saying District police have lost the public's trust by not being transparent about their continued cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. Judiciary and Public Safety Committee Chair Brooke Pinto is leading an effort to get clarity from interim police chief Jeff Carroll about MPD's relationship with ICE. Councilmember Pinto got behind the mic to discuss how the council is pressing District police. She said Chief Carroll's answers this week were “wholly inadequate." "The public has a right to know which federal agents are here," Pinto said. "How many arrests have been made? How many immigration-related arrests have be made? What does that level of deployment response look like?"The MPD head will need to answer these questions at a public oversight hearing set for February 25th.We also ask her about the council's process for picking its next member and the 2026 election season.Send us questions and comments for guests: kojo@wamu.orgFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/wamu885Follow us on Bluesky: bsky.app/wamu.org

Send us a textWhat should students actually be doing, saying, and thinking in math class? In this episode, I break down this essential question and shifts the focus away from pacing guides, tests, and compliance—and back to student thinking. If you want math class to feel alive, engaging, and meaningful, this conversation sets the stage.So how do we make this happen consistently? The answer isn't more strategies or better worksheets—it's a routine. This segment breaks down how Word Problem Workshop provides a predictable structure (Launch, Grapple, Share, Discuss, Reflect) that reliably gets students doing, talking, and thinking about math without relying on scripted lessons or high-level curriculum materials.

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan, and Carl Cannon discuss three violent incidents from the weekend: the antisemitic massacre at Bondi Beach in Australia that left 15 dead and 40 wounded, the shooting at Brown University where the assailant is still at large, and the attack on U.S. troops in Syria that left two US soldiers and an interpreter dead. Then, they discuss CBS News Editor Bari Weiss' town hall event with Erika Kirk and the announcement that Kirk plans to meet privately with Candace Owens. Next, they talk about the fight over control of Warner Bros/Disney between Netflix and Paramount, and what it may mean for the future of CNN. Then finally, they discuss the release by House Democrats of new photos and images from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein, including pictures of Donald Trump. And tragically, director and political activist Rob Reiner and his wife were murdered this weekend, Reiner's son is in custody, and President Donald Trump reacted with a social media post.

About 45 years after Ronald Reagan called it the most dangerous drug in America, the U.S. government seems to be warming up to weed. We are quickly discovering that “financializing everything” through prediction markets also creates endless opportunities for corruption.
New identification requirements for vehicle registrations in Texas have prompted concerns from dealers and lenders about a potential increase in unregistered or uninsured cars on the road. The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles in a Nov. 19 bulletin clarified that documentation required to register vehicles or renew registrations cannot include expired IDs and that passports issued by a foreign country must include documentation proving lawful admission to the U.S. The changes could hamper vehicle sales and lead to an uptick in illegally operated cars, creating collateral risk for auto lenders. In the wider market, credit access improved in November even as average transaction prices rose. The Dealertrack Credit Availability Index increased 4% year over year to 99.1 as approval rates, subprime share and the share of longer-term loans rose. The new-vehicle ATP ticked up 1.3% YoY to $49,814, while incentives as a percentage of ATP was 6.7%, down from 7.9% of ATP a year ago. High prices are prompting consumers to shift to used vehicles, with banks such as Huntington seeing the mix of originations also shift away from new cars. Meanwhile, auto loan delinquency rates are projected to increase next year but the overall rate of growth is expected to slow. Auto loan delinquencies of 60-plus days are forecast to land at 1.54% in Q4 2026, up 3 basis points compared with the Q4 2025 projected rate, according to TransUnion. However, the percentage change YoY is expected to be 1.4% in Q4 2026, down from 2.6% forecasted in Q4 2025. In this episode of “Weekly Wrap,” Auto Finance News Editor Amanda Harris, Senior Associate Editor Truth Headlam and Associate Editor Aidan Bush discuss trends across compliance, affordability and credit performance for the week ended Dec. 12.

As Summer descends and the Mercurio rises our heroes muse over the mere concept of a new world order. One where athletes can play for whomever they wish, where ever they wish and the threat of life long bans is a campfire horror story told by broken down old footballers to their wide eyed offspring. In this NWO, Les Kiss is currently coaching the Wallabies and making the hard selection calls that this podcast alone endorses, the Broncos logo is just that and not some hundred million dollar statement on the ghost of Brisbane's past, present and future and PVL wears a taylor made suit. When finally the day dream breaks and reality sets in we congratulate Big H and Len on their inclusion in the world VX, we break down the pitches down under and wax lyrical about an Aussie pace attack still 2 prongs short of a nightmare. A much needs semi hiatus awaits our battle weary righteous warriors. When it's all done bar the shouting, the only thing left to do is Grapple.

Send us a textWe've all heard about the importance of productive struggle in math—but what does it actually look like in practice? In this episode, I share why Grapple Time is one of the most powerful parts of Word Problem Workshop, how to prepare students to persevere, and the exact four teacher moves you can make while students are solving.Wondering what this looks like day-to-day? I walk you through my four concrete teacher moves during Grapple Time:Scan – Take the first 30 seconds to see who's stuck, who's thriving, and where you may need to step in.Walk – Move around the room neutrally, observing and jotting down strategies without telling students what's “right.”Zone In – Focus on a few students who are showing interesting strategies or who need redirection.Ask – Hold brief conferences, nudging students with questions like, “What are you thinking?” or “How did you start?”These moves keep you active and intentional without stealing the struggle from students.

John Graham graduated from college with no real training, no direction, and no one to help him. As a result, he went through eight career detours, moving from state to state, feeling helpless, alone, and not knowing what to do or where to go much of the time. It was not until he and his wife committed to helping others who were struggling more they were and founded Good Samaritan Home that he found his place and a sense of purpose. John Graham had gone from homelessness, a series of career restarts over the years, to a business owner and a published author. He was a door-to-door salesman, children's home counselor, substitute schoolteacher, truck driver, fireman, building contractor, minister, and journalist. At 75, he published his debut novel called Running As Fast As I Can, which had been rejected nearly 200 times. John is familiar with second, third, and fourth chances that many of us need to reach our goals. It is in developing what he calls calloused hands and a tender heart, along the journey. Click HERE to buy book For Fans of WHERE THE CRAWDADS SING, A LITTLE LIFE, and FORREST GUMP "... often profound historical novel. Our verdict: GET IT!" - KIRKUS REVIEWS Growing up in the mill slums of Pittsburgh, Daniel Robinson was a punching bag for his drunken father, ignored by his mentally ill mother, and trapped in the grip of poverty. He's finally freed from the torture of that home, only to crash land in another hell when he's abused by the pastor who takes him in. Daniel escapes once again, spending the next decade wandering homeless throughout the country during the turbulent 1960s. On his journey, he gets caught up in the hippie drug invasion in San Francisco, racial violence in Cleveland and Detroit, and especially a deadly anti-war protest at Kent State. Daniel finally finds love with someone who was running from her own demons. Together, they get a second chance at happiness and the family they both want. Because of his experience on the street, Daniel is offered a job helping men coming from prison. When asked to find housing for Charles Vickers, a black man who spent twenty years in prison for a rape that Daniel is convinced he never committed, he and his wife open their own home to him. This enrages the community, especially when a local girl disappears. Violence erupts—with Daniel as the focus of their rage. Should he stay and fight for Charles—and put his family at risk, or run away again? RUNNING AS FAST AS I CAN is an unforgettable, multi-award-winning story about overcoming childhood abuse and the generational trauma of poverty to find love, forgiveness, and redemption. Daniel's story, with its harrowing social themes conveyed through an intense personal odyssey, vividly portrays a traumatic period in our history, while grappling with intense emotional and social issues we still face today.

Our verdict: GET IT!" - KIRKUS REVIEWS Growing up in the mill slums of Pittsburgh, Daniel Robinson was a punching bag for his drunken father, ignored by his mentally ill mother, and trapped in the grip of poverty. He's finally freed from the torture of that home, only to crash land in another hell when he's abused by the pastor who takes him in. Daniel escapes once again, spending the next decade wandering homeless throughout the country during the turbulent 1960s. On his journey, he gets caught up in the hippie drug invasion in San Francisco, racial violence in Cleveland and Detroit, and especially a deadly anti-war protest at Kent State. Daniel finally finds love with someone who was running from her own demons. Together, they get a second chance at happiness and the family they both want. Because of his experience on the street, Daniel is offered a job helping men coming from prison. When asked to find housing for Charles Vickers, a black man who spent twenty years in prison for a rape that Daniel is convinced he never committed, he and his wife open their own home to him. This enrages the community, especially when a local girl disappears. Violence erupts—with Daniel as the focus of their rage. Should he stay and fight for Charles—and put his family at risk, or run away again? RUNNING AS FAST AS I CAN is an unforgettable, multi-award-winning story about overcoming childhood abuse and the generational trauma of poverty to find love, forgiveness, and redemption. Daniel's story, with its harrowing social themes conveyed through an intense personal odyssey, vividly portrays a traumatic period in our history, while grappling with intense emotional and social issues we still face today.

Send us a textIf you've ever had a student say, “I'm just not a math person”, you know how powerful that belief can be. Math identity—how students see themselves in relation to math—can either open the door to learning or slam it shut. In this episode of Math Chat Podcast, we explore how to shift those fixed beliefs by reframing what math is and who it's for.The Word Problem Workshop (WPW) framework is designed to help all learners engage in problem-solving at their own pace. You'll learn how the “Grapple” step invites productive struggle, the “Share” step encourages diverse strategies, and the “Reflect” step solidifies understanding. This structure turns mistakes into learning moments and makes math a place where every student can shine.
