How can you best support your children's education so that they succeed whether they are in the classroom, homeschool, or doing a little bit of both? How can you help them to grow up owning their own learning, stay teachable, and eager to "figure something out if they don't know it"? Stephanie Sewell will help us answer these questions in today's conversation. Stephanie Sewell is an independent education consultant in Quebec, Canada who helps both students and parents take ownership of their education by choosing an education path that is best for them. This could be in school, home school, or something in between. The goal is self-directed learning so that the student is engaged, happy and confident in all areas of life not just school.

The back-to-school season has begun: are your kids ready for a new school year? When our children hit academic bumps in the road (and they will), it's hard for parents to figure out the best ways to help redirect them toward success.  This week Carol sits down with Windy Lopez-Aflitto, the VP of Content and Partnerships at Learning Heroes, a national organization which helps parents support their children's learning at home. Carol and Windy get to the bottom of why there's such a large gap between what parents think about their child's grade level progress and how their kids are actually doing in school. They offer parents the tips they need to better understand their child's learning experience and help improve it. Carol and Windy examine the complex relationship teachers and parents can have and share specific ways parents can work with teachers to make sure their children are engaged in their schoolwork and getting as much as possible out of it.  This episode is a must for parents and caregivers of school-age children looking for expert advice on helping their kids thrive in school.

How do we equip kids with the tools they need to avoid substance abuse? How can we identify a teen who is at risk? And what can be done to prevent our young ones from developing dependency issues?Every parent is haunted by these questions, myself included. To get answers, I did what you do when you host a podcast—I turn to the experts. Meet Jessica Lahey.Returning for her second appearance on the show, Jess is a graduate of the University of Massachusetts with a J.D. concentrating on juvenile and education law from the University of North Carolina. She’s an English and writing teacher, a commentator for Vermont Public Radio, and writes about education, parenting, and child welfare for The Atlantic, The Washington Post, and The New York Times.

But the primary focus of today’s discussion is her hot off the press second book, The Addiction Inoculation: Raising Healthy Kids in a Culture of Dependence.This is a conversation about how to have those difficult conversations with your kids about alcoholism and drug addiction.It’s about how to effectively guide our young ones through the perils of substance exploration, dependency, and abuse.And most of all, it’s about arming parents with invaluable, evidence-based strategies and practical tools helpful in raising, supporting, and educating resilient, addiction-resistant children.To read more click here.

  Coaching basketball over the last 25 years, I have witnessed quite a few parents mistakenly view their parenting success based on their child’s sports success.

In Episode 53, I'm chatting with my oldest daughter and favorite high school English teacher, Gretchen Monke. She has done a terrific job of connecting with her students and has some excellent insights on how parents can partner with teachers to help kids succeed at school. We discuss four ways to help your child succeed at school. #1 Promote Ownership Over Their own Education Help child take more ownership over their own education. Encourage them to communicate directly with their teacher. #2 Help Them Get Organized Organizational skills are really important. Make sure they have an organized agenda and binder. Digital organization is important, as well. A lot of children don't have organizational skills. "But ultimately is the student's responsibility to take that information and learn it and apply it. And I think sometimes parents place that responsibility on teachers." "I can teach your child how to write a paragraph, but I can't write it for them." #3 Teach Kids to Be Proactive The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens is a book about habits that can help your teen improve different aspects of their life. 1st Habit is being proactive "I really want to work on fostering a better relationship with my parents." Teens still want a close relationship with parents. Share Advice with Teachers Share your child's interests/what you enjoy. "If you have a child who is struggling to develop that independence and autonomy and is maybe nervous talking to their teachers, something that has worked well is a parent has emailed me and said, 'Hey, would you mind prompting this discussion with my student?'" "We need to communicate with each other. Let's all share information." Audrey #4 Give Teachers Some Grace "Approach teachers with patience." Gretchen "I value every student as an individual, but it's hard to help everyone at once." Gretchen "We need to be a little more forgiving/understanding at seeing other people's perspective." Audrey "We're all on the same team so that partnership is really, really important."

How is it different from automaticity? How do games provide meaningful fact practice? What are the disadvantages of timed testing? What alternatives are there to timed testing? Why is it important for teachers and parents to understand the distinction between foundational facts and derived facts, and how should that impact instructional choices? How do we help families understand there are better ways to teach and assess facts?

Kling has taught elementary mathematics content and methods courses for the past 15 years at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, Michigan. About Math Fact FluencyMastering the basic facts for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division is an essential goal for all students. Most educators also agree that success at higher levels of math hinges on this fundamental skill. But what's the best way to get there? Are flash cards, drills, and timed tests the answer? If so, then why do students go into the upper elementary grades (and beyond) still counting on their fingers or experiencing math anxiety? What does research say about teaching basic math facts so they will stick? In http://www.ascd.org/Publications/Books/Overview/Math-Fact-Fluency.aspx (Math Fact Fluency), experts Jennifer Bay-Williams and Gina Kling provide the answers to these questions—and so much more. This book offers everything a teacher needs to teach, assess, and communicate with parents about basic math fact instruction, including The five fundamentals of fact fluency, which provides a...
