Rachel Broussard and Keesha Buteau of the Girls Scouts of Louisiana – Pines to the Gulf, join us today. We've invited Rachel and Keesha to share the Girl Scout story. And, as many diehard fans know, it's almost time for the annual cookie sale.  Rachel Broussard serves as CEO of Pines to the Gulf and has over 20 years of service with the organization. A Kaplan native, she graduated from UL-Lafayette. Her background in the military afforded her the opportunity to attend college as her tuition was covered. She first worked for Acadiana Youth, and then joined the Girl Scouts in what was then known as Bayou Girl Scout Council covering 13 parishes in the Acadiana region. Keesha Buteau serves as Chief Operating Officer and began her service with the Scouts in January 2006.  A Lafayette native, she graduated from Acadiana High School and was inspired by participating in Girls State. While she originally thought she wanted to go into law and had the opportunity to work with the District Attorney's office in the Juvenile Division, her heart broke as she saw the "kids in shackles, little kid chain gangs." She realized that she wanted to help young people before they got into trouble. While her parents were originally a bit dismayed by her shifted career focus, she has never regretted her commitment to serving youth and believes the Girl Scouts is a perfect fit. Today, Girl Scouts of Louisiana - Pines to the Gulf serves girls in the 42 parishes west of the Mississippi River. Participants can be as young as Kindergarten and go through 12th grade. While COVID has been tough on everyone, both agreed that incorporating technology such as Zoom has been a godsend in helping organizations learn how to communicate more effectively. The Girl Scouts members are all female, and focus solely on girls and its activities are only participated in by girls. While there is a place for the Boy Scouts, the Girl Scout organization stands firm that single-sex programming is beneficial to young girls who are fighting to find their way in the world. "Although your daughter likely goes to school with boys, and might play Saturday morning sports and share the local playground with them, the realities of her day-to-day life are anything but the same as those of her male peers. In fact, studies show that in coed learning environments, boys receive more praise than girls when they call out in class, making girls less likely to raise their hands. Furthermore, boys are allowed to problem solve on their own during class time, which fosters independence, whereas teachers tend to step in and “help” girls, leading girls to question their own abilities." Learn more at https://www.girlscouts.org/en/raising-girls/happy-and-healthy/happy/girls-only-single-gender-empowering-girls.html The Girl Scouts were founded in Savannah, Georgia by Juliette Gordon Low in 1912. The programming has consistently focused on service and the Girl Scout Promise rings true of what you expect from young leaders: "On my honor, I will try: To serve God and my country, To help people at all times, to live by the Girl Scout." The goal of the Scouts is to help the girls grow as they learn positive values, to take their skills into their communities, and make a positive difference. "That is at the core of who we are as Girls Scouts", according to Rachel Broussard. "to make lasting and respectful connections, and to go out and solve problems in their communities." Keesha's daughter is a Girl Scout Cadet at 11 years of age, having started the scouts in kindergarten. As her mom, Keesha limits outside activities to 2 or 3 to preserve family time, and her daughter always puts Scouts at the top of the list of what she wants to participate in. The interaction with her daughters' troop continually inspires Keesha to see the value of scouting. "Be a Friend First" is a valued program that teaches self-confidence, how to have healthy habits and relationships.

Folge 2 unseres aktuellen Themenmonats bringt euch ein weiteres Mal an ein wildes und spannendes Stück Erde auf der anderen Seite des Planeten: Papua-Neuguinea. In Papua-Neuguinea wird bis heute eine deutschähnliche Sprache gesprochen. Sie heißt "Unserdeutsch" und ist das Erbe düsterer deutscher Kolonialzeit. "Unserdeutsch" galt als ausgestorben und wurde erst kürzlich wiederentdeckt und erstmalig wissenschaftlich beschrieben. Prof. Dr. Maitz nimmt uns mit auf eine packende Expedition in die Linguistik - und die problematische deutsche Vergangenheit in der Südsee. Auf vielen Inseln Papua-Neuguineas dreht sich alles um die "Goldbarren der Meere": die Seegurke. Seit Generationen fischen Einheimische dieses schrullige Tier. Doch seit Chinas Hunger auf diese Delikatesse immer größer wird, wachsen auch in Papua-Neuguinea die Probleme - für Mensch und Tier. Die Expertin Dr. Cathy Hair sucht nach kreativen und nachhaltigen Lösungen.

Teacher, if your class ROOM is a distraction, it may be time to give it a quick tidy! Bits of paper on desks and pencils on the floor may not seem like a huge problem, but can you really focus on what's most important if your surroundings are a mess?

I'd say, you're absolutely right. You don't, and you shouldn't.Here's how to make it happen without taking all that responsibility on yourself. I'll give you a hint: get your class involved, but make it fun.If you're ready to whistle while we work, let's get those classrooms tidy!Links in today's episode:Today's blog postSpring Classroom Management Cleanup blog post (with more on Table Points)Spring Classroom Management Cleanup podcast episodePrimary Teacher Friends Facebook Group

First day of Kindergarten is always a nerve-racking time for parents. But when they meet Mrs. W their tensions are probably eased.  She has a soft face with a dirty blonde bob and she's a mom of three! She seems like the perfect teacher - kind, nurturing, sweet.  But when she's with the police she's a totally different person.  “I want to see where it stabbed her.”  “I want to see a video of them having s** with my husband!”  It makes you wonder - how well do we actually know our teachers?  Book Rec: “Wilder Intentions” - by C.J.
