A Parenting Resource for Children’s Behavior and Mental Health
Kids these days are struggling more than ever with handling stress and frustration. In an effort to protect kids from discomfort, adults often step in too quickly, solving problems for them instead of teaching them how to work through challenges. While this may offer a short-term solution, it prevents children from developing the resilience and problem-solving abilities they need to handle life's challenges.When kids learn to manage frustration, they feel more capable—and when they feel good about themselves, there's no limit to what they can do. In this episode, we'll explore why so many kids struggle with stress and frustration today, what's missing in their coping toolkit, and how small shifts in our approach can make a big difference. Let's empower kids to handle stress in a healthy way so they can thrive, no matter what life throws their way.

Like most of us, Christina Schneider didn't find teaching writing one bit easy at first. Despite her background as a journalist, putting all the puzzle pieces together in the classroom to help her students understand how to build a thesis, introduce and analyze evidence, and express their ideas felt like a pretty tough task. But over time she had one breakthrough after another with her high school students in California. She figured out how to meet them where they are and guide them through the process of building their academic writing skills day by day throughout the school year. Now she steps up to the plate each August with her new students feeling confident that she can take them where they need to go. She's recently written a new book, Building Strong Writers, where she shares everything she's learned in step-by-step walkthroughs to make it easy for you to try too. Today on the pod, we'll be exploring three of her top writing scaffolds, and how you can get started with them tomorrow to make argument writing instruction simpler and more successful in your classroom.

For years, teachers were told to teach reading at children's "instructional levels." However, research has not been especially kind to this idea, showing either that this adjustment provides no benefit or that it actually is harmful.
