Die Karnevalsmuffel haben die Hochburgen an Rhein und Main längst verlassen oder vergraben sich hinter der Olympiaberichterstattung. Alle anderen, mich inbegriffen, werden langsam aber sicher hibbelig und vorfreudig aufgeregt und können es kaum erwarten, dass es endlich losgeht – der vielgeliebte Rosenmontagszug. Für mich diesmal nur am Fernseher, aber für viele live und in Farbe in Köln, Mainz, Bonn oder auch in den vielen kleinen Städtchen und Dörfern. Aber, aber es ist doch immer noch Krieg in der Ukraine, da kann man doch nicht feiern? Und außerdem gibt es doch immer noch die Angst vor Anschlägen. Ja, der Krieg dauert immer noch an und ein Ende ist nicht abzusehen und Drohungen, die Feierfreude mit Anschlägen niederzumachen, ist nicht von der Hand zu weisen. Aber wir feiern, weil nach all dem Schrecklichen der letzten Jahre die Sehnsucht nach Gemeinschaft, nach miteinander Singen und Tanzen, sich verkleiden und vergnügt sein, so groß ist. So ist das Leben: Krieg und Frieden, Freude und Leid, Angst und Jubel, Trauer und Erlösung liegen so dicht beieinander, dass es, gerade in unserer Zeit fast mit den Händen greifbar wird. Singen gegen die Angst, zusammenschunkeln gegen die Einsamkeit, Jubeln und Lachen gegen Hass und Hetze und das viele Böse. Die einen mögen es Schicksal nennen, gegen das man ohnehin nichts machen kann. Aber andere, ich auch, lebe eher aus einer Hoffnung und einer Gewissheit.  Die Gewissheit, dass die Menschen schon oft unlösbar scheinende Katastrophen und Kriege überstehen und wieder neu anfangen konnten und die Hoffnung, dass da ein guter Gott ist, dem wir nicht gleichgültig sind, sondern der uns liebt und unsere Wege mitgeht – in Kreuz und Leid, in Lust und Fröhlichkeit und in allen graubunten Farben dazwischen. In einem Kindergarten malen Kinder viele schöne Karnevalsbilder. Die Erzieherin schaut zu und merkt, dass ein Mädchen sehr vergnügt kunterbunt malt. Was malst Du? wird sie gefragt. „Ich male Gott“, ist die klare Antwort. Aber es weiß doch niemand, wie Gott aussieht, gibt die Frau zu bedenken. „In einer Minute schon“ sagt das Kind. Ist das nicht herrlich? Ein Wort von Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, dem großen Dichterfürsten, passt wunderbar dazu. Er sagte einmal: „Wenn ich an Gott dachte, war ich heiter und vergnügt.“ Denken wir also heute, beim Feiern und Schunkeln zwischendurch immer mal an Gott und seien wir heiter und vergnügt.

Executive function strategies Kindergarten through 3rd grade teachers can implement today. Dr. Sarah Oberle shares science-backed ways to support working memory, inhibition, and focus in the classroom. Dr. Sarah Oberle is a primary educator and cognitive science expert whose upcoming book, Executive Functions for Every K-3 Classroom, translates learning science into practical classroom strategies. In this episode, she breaks down the six executive functions developing in young children and explains why they matter more than content knowledge for student success. In this episode, you'll learn: The six executive functions and how they develop in K-3 students (core vs. higher-order) Why working memory is more limited than most teachers realize — and how to offload it with visual reminders, brief instruction bursts, and student-created notations How inhibition affects not just behavior but also attention and focus Why your classroom decor and seating arrangement may be taxing executive functions without you realizing it The science behind why music with lyrics creates a barrier to student focus Show notes and resources: https://www.coolcatteacher.com/e927 If you enjoy the 10 Minute Teacher, take 30 seconds to leave a rating!

Imagine the world as a bright, noisy classroom, God at the front as a wise teacher, and all of us as kindergartners still learning how to listen, share, and keep our hands to ourselves. That simple picture becomes a key for unlocking Parshas Mishpatim, turning dense legal chapters into a living guide for how to build trust, repair harm, and honor the people right beside us.We trace the Torah's powerful shift from duties to God to duties to each other and unpack why the opening word—“Ve'eleh,” and these—matters so much. It's the bridge that puts interpersonal law on the same Sinai pedestal as Shabbat and prayer. Through the classroom lens, rules about damages, lending, theft, negligence, and employer‑employee obligations stop feeling abstract. They become the laminated poster on the wall: use kind words, return what you take, arrive on time, protect the small and the new kid, listen when a friend speaks. Rewards and consequences are not bribes and threats; they are the structure that keeps learning possible.Then we go deeper. Some rules fit everyone, but some care is personal. Just as a parent privately tells the teacher about allergies and sensitivities, the Torah reveals what people can't tolerate—exploitation, delay, gossip, humiliation—and what helps them thrive—fairness, patience, timely repayment, quiet dignity. We explore how studying your friend's needs turns halacha into relational wisdom. Advanced sugyas in Bava Kamma and Bava Metzia come alive as tools to restore safety after harm and to keep the classroom calm enough for souls to grow.By the end, holiness looks less like grand gestures and more like everyday restraint: easing envy's sting, slowing down on the road, helping lift a burden on the shoulder of I‑95, noticing who stands alone. Keep the classroom image in your mind and Mishpatim starts to sing—justice with a human touch, kindness with a spine, and law as the architecture of peace. If this reframing moved you or clarified a mitzvah you've struggled with, subscribe, share the episode with a friend, and leave a review to help others find the show.

Auf dem Dachboden hat Luzi eine geheimnisvolle Sternenkarte mit Zauberschrift gefunden. Und immer, wenn sie die magischen Worte ausspricht, plumpsen drei große Wesen in ihr Zimmer. Sie sehen zwar ein bisschen aus wie dicke Walrösser, sind aber die intergalaktischen Halbfeen Leopold, Panini und Bruno vom Moffel-Planeten. Und wenn Luzi reimt, kann sie sich von den Moffels etwas wünschen. Luzi hat den Fasching im Kindergarten verpasst, dabei wäre sie doch so gern eine Prinzessin gewesen. Also wünscht sie es sich von den Moffels. Das Sandmännchen hat dir aber nicht nur diese Geschichte mitgebracht, sondern auch noch das Kinderlied “Die Prinzessin will gern Ritter sein” von Bernd Kohlhepp.

This episode is a continuation of last week's conversation with Tess from the Coalition for Responsible Home Education… only this time, it's just us digging deeper. We take on the lightning-rod topic of homeschool regulation, talk kids' rights vs. parents' rights, and unpack why the lack of oversight in many states is a real problem. We also explore how weak regulation creates space for abuse, misinformation, and the rise of Christian nationalism within the homeschool movement. As always, we're here for nuance, not fear-mongering, and we believe homeschooling can be both freeing and accountable. We'd love to invite you to join our book club.  Reading books among community matters so much.

Als Isabel im vierten Monat schwanger ist, bekommt sie die Diagnose: Ihre Tochter hat Trisomie 21. Im ersten Moment war das natürlich ein Schock, verbunden mit vielen Ängsten und noch mehr offenen Fragen. Und trotzdem ist da auch diese Zuversicht. Isabel erzählt, wie sie diese erste Zeit nach der Diagnose erlebt hat, wie sie mit der Unsicherheit umgegangen ist und warum gut gemeinte Reaktionen aus dem Umfeld es nicht unbedingt leichter gemacht haben. Wir sprechen darüber, ob für Isabel sofort klar war, dass sie Matilda bekommen möchte, und wie sich ihr Familienalltag im Vergleich zur Zeit mit nur einem Kind ohne Down-Syndrom verändert hat. Außerdem geht es um ganz konkrete Fragen: Welche Einschränkungen bringt Trisomie 21 im Alltag tatsächlich mit sich? Wie organisiert sich das Familienleben? Und mit welchen Vorurteilen sieht sich Isabel immer wieder konfrontiert – manchmal offen, oft aber auch leise und unterschwellig.

Teaching kindergarten is a little bit like herding cats… but this week gave me two moments that reminded me why curiosity-based learning works.In this episode, I'm sharing a real behind-the-scenes reflection from my first week back teaching kindergarten, and how two small moments (acorns + a daytime moon!) turned into powerful inquiry opportunities.We talk about:A mistake I almost made on day one (and why it matters in early years)How a pile of acorns sparked curiosity and learning without any fancy resourcesThe question a four-year-old asked that instantly became an inquiryHow to spot “curiosity moments” and turn them into meaningful learningIf you teach early years and you want to keep children engaged without worksheets, pressure, or overwhelm, this episode will give you practical inspiration you can use immediately.✨ Want to learn how to do this consistently?

Unsere 160ste Folge besteht aus zwei sehr unterschiedlichen Teilen: Zunächst schildert uns unser sympathischer Gast, die Pflegefachfrau Wiebke Rothkegel aus Oldenburg, wie sie überhaupt zu ätherischen Ölen kam. Sie startete wirklich begeistert, doch fühlte sie immer mehr veräppelt und verspürte obendrein immensen Druck. Dazu kam die ENT-Täuschung, dass diverse (finanzielle) Versprechen völlig an der alltäglichen Realität als junge Mutter vorbei gingen. Sie suchte auch Antworten auf ihre dringenden Fragen nach Hintergründen – doch es kamen nur Phrasen und vorgefertigte Sprüche, statt individueller Empfehlungen. So schlug sie schließlich eine neue Richtung ein.Mit ihrer berührenden Projektarbeit nach einer soliden Ausbildung – diese beschreibt sie im zweiten Teil dieser Episode, begleitete sie „Kleine Nasen“ in einem Kindergarten. Gemeinsam konnten große, schöne Emotionen spielerisch und sehr kreativ entdeckt werden. Wiebke wird diesen Weg mit Kinderprojekten weiter gehen, denn sowohl Eltern als auch einige Erzieherinnen (dieses Wörtchen mögen wir gar nicht, warum sollte man junge Seelen ziehen…) konnten angenehme Unterschiede sehen. Obendrein hatten die Kleinen immense Freude an den Naturdüften, endlich durfte dieser wichtige Sinn aktiviert werden!Konnten dir unsere Rezeptideen und Tipps bereits helfen?!

It's one of the most essential, basic skills imparted in education - that is, the skill of reading. And when that skill is unlocked in a child, their world opens up, and their education expands with greater joy and success.Kindergarten is where that happens for most kids, and while it is such a basic and crucial part of education, different methods for teaching kids to read have been championed over the years, often with mixed results.The one method that has been tried and true for centuries – and, as you will learn in this podcast is scientifically proven to be effective for learning our language – is phonics. In this episode, you'll hear from one of our kindergarten teachers, Mrs. Laurie Conrad, who has not only taught kindergarten for decades, but also earned her master's in education degree in reading and holds a PA Reading Specialist certificate.If you have young children in preschool, kindergarten, or early elementary school, Mrs. Conrad's stories from the classroom and experience of how phonics works so well in growing kids' ability and confidence in reading will be enlightening and inspiring!This season of Cultivate has been sponsored by Hershey Financial Advisers, a wealth management firm located on North Pointe Blvd. in Lancaster, PA, leading people to make better financial decision and empowering them to fulfill a vision beyond themselves.

In this episode, we sit down with Tess Ulrey from the Coalition for Responsible Home Education for a thoughtful, nuanced conversation about homeschool regulation, accountability, and why these discussions so often get shut down before they even begin with phrases like “slippery slope.” We talk about the rarely considered realities of how exposed to risk some kids truly are, and why acknowledging that doesn't automatically make you anti-homeschool. This conversation doesn't end with the interview though.  Next week's episode is just us, continuing the discussion and processing the ideas Tess raised, what challenged our thinking, and how it all fits into the bigger homeschooling landscape.We'd love to invite you to join our book club.  Reading books among community matters so much.

What happens when you put three legendary teachers and the Head of School in a room with a microphone? You get decades of history, uncontrollable laughter, and a heartwarming look at what "School Choice" really means. In honor of National School Choice Week, Head of School Kristen Bishop sits down with three of AGCS's absolute "GOATs"—two of our beloved Kindergarten teachers and a 2nd-grade veteran. These aren't just colleagues; they are old friends with a shared history that spans decades. And each one of them sent their own kids to Charter.  In this episode, the group takes a trip down memory lane, trading funny stories and poking fun at the early days. But they also tackle a serious question: Why choose AGCS? These three educators (and our CEO) didn't just choose to spend their careers here; they made the ultimate choice to entrust their own children's education to AGCS. Tune in to hear why the teachers who know the school best believe in it the most. In this episode, we discuss: The "Decades" factor: What has kept these teachers at AGCS for so long? The dual perspective: Navigating life as both a teacher and an AGCS parent. The evolution of the school (and the hilarious growing pains along the way). Why "School Choice" matters more than ever. Grab a cup of coffee and join us for one of our favorite conversations yet.

„Das beste Kind ist ein glückliches Kind!“ – denkste! Denn Wut und Trauer gehören genauso zu Kindern wie Freude oder Stolz. Aber wie begleiten wir unsere Kinder durch diese starken Gefühle, ohne sie wegzudrücken oder alles immer gleich lösen zu wollen? Und wie können Eltern dafür sorgen, dass Kinder lernen, ihre Emotionen wahrzunehmen, zu regulieren und für sich zu nutzen (z.B. bei einer Polizeikontrolle)? Darüber spricht Jakob in dieser Folge mit Jana und Claudia vom Podcast „Die Kinderdolmetscher“ – also zwei echten Expertinnen, wenn's darum geht, kindliche Gefühle verständlich zu machen. Gemeinsam fragen wir uns, was uns die Körpersprache unserer Kinder über ihre Bedürfnisse verrät, ob man ein wütendes Kind auch mal alleine lassen darf – und warum Kartoffelbrei überraschend wirksam bei der Emotionsregulierung sein kann. – Hier geht's zum Kinderdolmetscher Club: https://kinderdolmetscher.de/club/ – Hier findest du den Podcast „Die Kinderdolmetscher”: https://die-kinderdolmetscher.podigee.io/ – Und hier geht's zum Buch „Die Kinderdolmetscherin”: https://kinderdolmetscher.de/kinderdolmetscherin/ Du möchtest mehr über unsere Werbepartner erfahren?

Top Stories for January 29th Publish Date: January 29th PRE-ROLL: GCPS From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, January 29th and Happy birthday to Tom Selleck I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. UGA’s online degree programs rank among nation’s best Archer students walk out of school to protest ICE actions State Rep. Scott Hilton files bill to protect kindergarten 'redshirting' Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on saturated fats All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: SUGAR HILL ICE SKATING STORY 1: UGA’s online degree programs rank among nation’s best The University of Georgia’s online programs are making waves again, landing several top-10 spots in U.S. News & World Report’s 2026 Best Online Programs rankings. UGA held strong at No. 18 overall, keeping its place among the nation’s top 20. What’s behind the rankings? The annual survey looks at things like student engagement, faculty credentials, tech, and peer reviews. And UGA? It’s shining. The numbers tell the story: UGA’s online retention ranking climbed to No. 4, and its graduation ranking jumped from No. 20 to No. 7. The Mary Frances Early College of Education continues to lead the charge, offering programs that help Georgia’s teachers grow their skills while staying in the classroom. Highlights include: No. 3 in Best Online Master’s in Curriculum and Instruction (up from No. 11) No. 3 in Educational/Instructional Media Design No. 4 in Special Education No. 6 in Educational Administration and Policy UGA’s programs for veterans also earned recognition, ranking No. 11 for making education more accessible through the GI Bill and other financial aid. The Terry College of Business wasn’t left out either—its online master’s in business and technology ranked No. 23 nationally. STORY 2: Archer students walk out of school to protest ICE actions At Archer High School, Sandra Brown-Peraza says immigrant students live with a constant, gnawing fear. Every day, stepping off campus feels like stepping into the unknown. “We’ve seen ICE waiting outside schools—places that are supposed to be safe,” she said. That fear boiled over on Tuesday when hundreds of students walked out, chanting “No more ICE.” Organizer Nehemiah Hamilton estimated 800 students braved the freezing cold to protest. The protest wasn’t just about raids—it was about lives lost. Students spoke of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, U.S. citizens killed by ICE agents in Minnesota. “They’re killing innocent people,” said Sasha Molnar. Not everyone supports the protests. U.S. Rep. Mike Collins dismissed them as “woke indoctrination,” but Hamilton fired back: “We’re not safe. We’re not backing down.” Meanwhile, Gwinnett Board Chairwoman Tarece Johnson-Morgan stood with the students, saying, “Their voices demand our empathy and care.” STORY 3: State Rep. Scott Hilton files bill to protect kindergarten 'redshirting' A new bill could give Georgia parents the final say on when their kids start kindergarten—at 5 or 6. Right now, the law says kids must be in school by 6, but it’s up to local districts to decide if a 6-year-old can start in kindergarten or must go straight to first grade. State Rep. Scott Hilton introduced House Bill 1048 to clear up the confusion. The bill comes after Gwinnett County Public Schools stirred controversy by ending its long-standing practice of allowing “redshirting,” where parents delay kindergarten until age 6. GCPS now sends all 6-year-olds straight to first grade, even if they’ve never been in a classroom. Parents pushed back hard, arguing that some kids—especially younger ones—need that extra year to mature. GCPS has hinted at a compromise, with an “expedited student support team” process to decide on a case-by-case basis if redshirted kids can go to kindergarten. But it’s no guarantee. If Hilton’s bill passes, though? That decision would be in parents’ hands, not the district’s. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

We’ll be right back Break 2: KIA Mall Of Ga - GCPL Passport STORY 4: Gwinnett Stripers hiring gameday staff for 2026 The Gwinnett Stripers are gearing up for the 2026 season and looking for gameday staff to join the team. If you’re all about creating awesome fan experiences, this might be your shot. You can apply online now at GoStripers.com/jobs, or swing by their in-person Job Fair on Saturday, Feb. 7, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. It’s happening in the Suite Lounge at Gwinnett Field. They’re hiring for part-time, seasonal roles in concessions, fan services, ticket sales, security, parking, gameday production, and even photography. Pro tip: Bring a few printed resumes to the Job Fair. Parking’s free, and you’ll enter through the Main Gate. STORY 5: Nalani Gainey reaches 2,000 career points in Seckinger victory It was a big night for Nalani Gainey—2,000 career points and counting. Oh, and Seckinger’s girls basketball team took down Chattahoochee 47-32 in Region 7-AAAAA action on Tuesday. Not a bad way to celebrate. Gainey was everywhere, racking up 24 points, five rebounds, five assists, five steals, and two blocks. The Jaguars, now 14-8 overall and 6-3 in the region, leaned on her leadership—and she delivered. Savan Johnson chipped in eight points and three boards, while Janyla Reed and Selah Wells dominated the paint with a combined 16 rebounds and four blocks. Titi Makinde added three points to round it out. GLADIATORS: The Atlanta Gladiators edged out the Orlando Solar Bears 2-1 Monday night in a gritty ECHL matchup at the Kia Center. It wasn’t pretty, but it was effective—and it keeps Atlanta rolling. Orlando struck first, capitalizing on a 5-on-3 power play midway through the first. Jack Adams buried a backdoor pass to make it 1-0, and the Solar Bears carried that lead into the second, outshooting Atlanta 9-6. But the Gladiators answered. Jack Matier ripped a power-play rocket from the point to tie it 1-1 in the second, with assists from Mike McNamee and Ryan Francis. Both teams traded chances—power plays, odd-man rushes, you name it—but the goalies stood tall. After two periods, Orlando had a 25-11 shot advantage, but the score stayed deadlocked. Then came the dagger. Early in the third, Alex Young sniped one short side off a slick feed from Isak Walther, giving Atlanta the 2-1 lead.

The homeschool world can feel like the wild west… loud opinions, confident hot takes, and advice from strangers who know nothing about your kid, your goals, or your reality. In this episode, we unpack the problem with crowd-sourced homeschool advice, why confidence online is not the same thing as competence, and how fear, isolation, and misinformation leave parents second-guessing themselves. From questionable curriculum claims to panic-inducing academic myths, we talk about how to cut through the noise, identify red and green flags in homeschool guidance, and find support that's thoughtful, accountable, and actually useful… for every stage of the homeschool journey.We'd love to invite you to join our book club.  Reading books among community matters so much.

In dieser Folge widmen wir uns mal wieder dem Immunsystem der Seele und fragen uns: Wie lernen Kinder Resilienz – und wie können wir sie als Eltern dabei emotional stärken? Dabei plaudern wir natürlich brühwarm aus dem Nähkästchen. Max verrät, wie er reagiert, wenn seine Tochter mit einer Drei nach Hause kommt – und was das mit Selbstwert, innerer Sicherheit und krisenfestem Aufwachsen zu tun hat. Und Jakob schmeißt die Kuscheltiere seiner Tochter weg, entschuldigt sich dafür aber immerhin ganz brav – im Gegensatz zu Max, der seine Kinder lieber gaslighted. Aber immerhin erzieht er keinen kleinen Adrenalin-Junkie!

Donate a coffee (1€)? https://ko-fi.com/italiano Livello #A2#scuola #italia #vacanze #laurea #studiesCome funziona la scuola in Italia e quando sono le vacanze scolastiche Buongiorno cari amici e amanti dell'italiano e bentornati al nostro podcast Tulip.Buon anno nuovo e oggi si riparte con tanti nuovi episodi per il 2026.Molti miei studenti mi chiedono quando ci sono le vacanze in Italia e come queste siano collegate alla scuola e così oggi vi voglio parlare del sistema scolastico italiano.Cominciamo subito col dire che i bambini piccoli, se i genitori lavorano, vengono portati all'asilo nido, che è il posto dove possono stare i bambini piccolissimi dai tre mesi fino ai tre anni di età. A tre anni i bambini di solito vanno alla scuola materna, anche detta la scuola dell'infanzia oppure anche asilo, una parola piuttosto vecchia per descrivere il posto dove i bambini dai tre ai sei anni possono giocare, fare dei piccoli lavoretti, dormire, imparare a socializzare con altri bambini. La scuola materna, Kindergarten è gestista dallo Stato, oppure da ordini religiosi o da privati.All'età di sei anni comincia per tutti la scuola elementare che dura cinque anni. Si chiama ufficialmente la scuola primaria ma da tutti è conosciuta come scuola elementare. La parola „scuola primaria“ deriva dal francese e si è diffusa soprattutto nei paesi anglosassoni con „primary school“. Nella lingua parlata in Italia invece diciamo „scuola elementare“ perché ......- The full transcript of this Episode (and excercises for many of the grammar episodes) is available via "Luisa's learn Italian Premium", Premium is no subscription and does not incur any recurring fees.

Award-winning journalist and filmmaker Lesley Riddoch joins us to discuss her inspirational new film exploring Finland — a country often cited as one of the world's most successful, fair and forward-thinking societies. Beautifully shot and deeply engaging, the film looks beyond the headlines to ask why Finland works so well, and what lessons Scotland can learn from its journey. We talk about what independence could make possible — but also, crucially, the changes we don't have to wait for. From education and local democracy to trust, equality and community power, this is an inspiring conversation about what Scotland can begin building right now.

Hey! Wir sind Max und Jakob – vielleicht kennst du uns auch als „Beste Freundinnen". In „Beste Vaterfreuden" sprechen wir aber weniger über Sex und Beziehungen, sondern über all die Freuden, Missgeschicke und Herausforderungen, die das Vatersein so mit sich bringt. Ohne Filter, humorvoll und mit viel Gefühl. Wenn du also Lust auf mehr Papa-Perspektiven hast, hör gern mal rein: Was wollten wir bei unseren wirklich Kindern anders machen als unsere Eltern? Was haben wir vielleicht unbewusst übernommen? Und was waren unsere großen Aha-Momente des Vaterseins? Max erzählt von einer Kindheit voller Regeln, die nie so richtig galten, und Jakob merkt, wie sehr sich sein Verantwortungsgefühl verändert hat, seit es seine Tochter gibt. Für den optimalen Mental-Load-Realitätscheck rufen wir bei den Müttern unserer Kinder an – und müssen bedauerlicherweise feststellen, dass unsere eigene Wahrnehmung nur so semi stimmt …

In this episode, we explore some nuanced questions about questions about balancing grit and flexibility.  Our focus through this deep dive will be important aspects of homeschooling, such as, are our kids developing the skills they'll need to successfully launch into adulthood? Does creating a customized, differentiated learning environment remove struggle and therefore minimize their ability to withstand discomfort?  We'll talk about what perseverance actually looks like in the real world - deadlines you didn't choose, unsexy responsibilities, difficult people - and examine how that intersects with highly personalized homeschooling. Along the way, we unpack when adapting and differentiating supports resilience versus when it might unintentionally reduce tolerance for discomfort, and we wrestle with the roles of neurodivergence, privilege, capitalism, and compliance in how we define “grit.” As is so often the case, we don't offer tidy answers… but we do offer honest reflection, balance, and a more nuanced way to think about preparing kids for life beyond homeschooling.We'd love to invite you to join our book club.  Reading books among community matters so much.

Was waren eigentlich die schönsten Momente, die unsere Kinder mit uns erlebt haben? Und was bleibt hängen, wenn wir an die Zeit mit unseren eigenen Eltern zurückdenken? Auffällig ist, dass viele der „krassen“, besonderen Erinnerungen oft mit unseren Vätern verknüpft sind: Abenteuer, Ausflüge, Highlights. Und das, obwohl unsere Mütter meist den Löwenanteil der alltäglichen Care-Arbeit übernommen haben. Wie kommt man aus dieser unfairen Nummer wieder raus? Wir sprechen über Dopamin-Momente, darüber, wo Kinder sich wirklich geborgen fühlen – und klären ein für alle Mal die Frage: Was zählt eigentlich als Kuschelzeit?

On this episode of Trending in Ed with Mike Palmer, unlock the secrets of the reading brain and the future of educational technology in this deep dive with Dr. Ola Ozernov-Palchik. A researcher at Boston University's Wheelock College of Education and Human Development and MIT's McGovern Institute for Brain Research, Dr. Ola sits at the cutting edge of cognitive neuroscience and the science of reading.

In this episode of Trending in Education, Mike Palmer welcomes Andrew Sliwinski, Global Head of Product Experience for LEGO Education, on the day of a major product launch.

OPB spent over a dozen years following a group of students from Kindergarten through the end of High School in 2025. The result was an amazing body of stories of the real lives and experiences of students, teachers, and families as they negotiate our public education system. One of the questions we have now is: how do you measure the success of education? We’ve gathered a group of big thinkers for a conversation about public education – what it is designed to do, who it is for, and how it might be changing for a new generation of students. We talk to Kali Thorne Ladd, CEO of the Children’s Institute, Ann Ishimaru, professor at the University of Washington College of Education, Jeffrey McGee, Director of Education at Rosemary Anderson Prep, and Ryan Carpenter, Superintendent Of Estacada School District.

This episode is for the questions you've been carrying quietly… the ones you've been too nervous, overwhelmed, or burned before to ask out loud. We know not all online spaces are safe spaces, and fear of judgment, pile-ons, or being told your question is “dumb” can keep things bottled up. So we're opening the door and asking some of the most common homeschool questions head-on, with honesty, nuance, and zero shame. If something has been weighing on you and you've been avoiding naming it (we've been there), there's a good chance it shows up in this conversation. You're not alone and you don't have to figure this out in silence.****We'd love to invite you to join our book club.  Reading books among community matters so much.

Die Geburt eines Kindes ist einer der prägendsten Momente im Leben einer Frau. Gleichzeitig wird sie oft als blanker Horror dargestellt und ist für viele mit Unsicherheit und Angst verbunden: vor Schmerzen, vor Kontrollverlust und davor, dass etwas schiefgeht. Aber muss das wirklich so sein? Mit der Filmemacherin Judith Langasch sprechen wir darüber, wie die Entbindung auch anders erlebt werden kann. Sie verrät, was Frauen brauchen, um die Geburt als selbstbestimmt, stärkend und positiv zu erfahren – von der Vorbereitung über mentale Techniken bis hin zur Frage, welche Rolle Hebammen, Doulas und Ärzt:innen spielen sollten.

Every year more than 3 million kids march off to kindergarten, a mysterious world about which adults know very little. Research psychologist Susan Engel, who has spent a lifetime studying how children think, play and learn, set out to change that, shining a light on an experience that is nearly universal and yet little understood. Twenty-nine classrooms, thirteen states and countless tiny chairs later, Engel offers a glimpse into the reality that is American kindergarten. Surprising, concerning, funny and hopeful, Engel's depiction will forever change the way you think about the first year of school.

I'm homeschooling five kids (grades 6, 4, 2, kindergarten… plus a five-month-old baby), and I'm sharing what's actually working now that real life is in full swing. I'll walk through the "filter" I'm using for curriculum decisions, what changed between my plan from seven months ago and what we're doing now, and the biggest fixes we made (especially in math and writing). I also share what our days look like right now — the flow, the routines, and the small setup decisions that make consistency possible.

What makes a good friend? Should you be afraid of slides? Would you offer someone broccoli if they liked it?Today, we're talking about what it's like to do philosophy with–and for–children. We'll hear from experts in the field, from people who facilitate philosophical discussions with kids, and from a specialist in child development. And we'll think about questions like:What do we owe kids, when it comes to philosophical thinking?What about us grownups? Have we gotten worse at wondering? Do we owe ourselves more philosophy?And, are kids naturally philosophical?---This is the last episode of the Ethics and Education podcast, at least for now.

Es gibt Momente im Familienalltag, auf die einen kein Elternratgeber vorbereitet – zum Beispiel, wenn Kinder ihre Eltern beim Sex erwischen. In Jakobs Fall: nackt auf dem AirTrack liegend. Oder wenn sie wie bei Max auf einmal mit dem Sextoy-Adventskalender vor einem stehen und sich wundern, warum ausgerechnet der nicht gemeinsam geöffnet werden kann. Aber wie geht man mit solchen Situationen um, ohne sie größer oder kleiner zu machen, als sie sind? Wie offen sollte man sein? Was erklärt man – und was lieber nicht? Und dann hat uns noch eine Hörerinnenmail erreicht: Sie schreibt von einem Vater, der jahrelang ein Doppelleben geführt hat, einer Mutter, die daran zerbricht – und erwachsenen Kindern, die zwischen Loyalität, Schuldgefühlen und Selbstschutz feststecken. Wir sprechen darüber, ob Kinder eigentlich Partei ergreifen müssen, wo Verantwortung endet und wie man mit elterlichen Konflikten umgehen kann, ohne selbst daran kaputtzugehen.
