From report cards and pencil grips to state testing stress, parent communication, and why some kids will finish a test in five minutes like it's a speed run, this one is packed with stories that'll have you laughing and nodding the whole time. They get into the reality of kindergarten being "the new first grade," the wild expectations placed on little kids, and how parents can accidentally turn a simple concern into an internet battle. Plus, you'll hear the differences in classroom management across grade levels, the never-ending debate of pencil-and-paper vs. everything on the computer, and why middle school is a special kind of chaos (with body odor to match). Also: teachers as content creators, student reactions when they find your TikTok, and the fine line between satire and admin panic.

Hilarious is the controversy surrounding Gavin Newsom's Atlanta book tour stop with Mayor Andre Dickens; it was conservatives accusing him of making a veiled racist dig in a comment on relatability (via his marginal SAT score) with an audience MAGA assumed "Atlanta + black mayor hosting = must be a black audience" (their own shortsighted stereotyping). Turns out the audience was mostly white - oh and Gavin was speaking of his overcoming dyslexia. Mayor Dickens defended & clarified thusly.Not dissimilarly, comedian Ben Palmer set up an elaborate prank ICE hotline and snared many a moron, including a kindergarten teacher attempting to have one of her student's parents deported. A Washington Post story detailed the set up and shared social media reaction & commentary from sociologists & political communications experts to show what it revealed for those caught in the trap.Tune in to catch the Ron Show weekdays from 4-6pm Eastern time on Georgia NOW!

Is there actually a “right” way to homeschool? In this episode, we cut through the homeschool aesthetics, color-coded schedules, and curriculum debates to talk about what truly matters - and what absolutely doesn't. We unpack the non-negotiables (safety, accountability, and avoiding abuse or neglect) and redefine homeschool success as growth, mental health, curiosity, and preparation for real adulthood… not perfect grades or performative achievement. If you've been feeling overwhelmed by comparison or unsure if you're “doing enough,” this conversation will ground you in what actually counts and remind you that raising safe, capable, emotionally healthy humans is the real goal.We'd love to invite you to join our book club.  Reading books among community matters so much. Homeschooling can feel isolating, but processing complex topics alongside like-minded people helps fill your cup, sharpen your thinking, and remind you that you're not navigating this alone.

Kindergarten Roundup Part 1 - Big-Dealism

Ist Geld für gute Noten Motivation oder falscher Anreiz? Wie eng sollten wir unsere Kinder beim Lernen begleiten – und wann ist Selbstständigkeit wichtiger als Kontrolle? Und mal ganz allgemein: Wie kommt mein Kind gut durch die Schule? Antworten auf all das und noch viel mehr hat Bob Blume parat: Er ist Autor, Bildungsexperte und vielleicht genau der Lehrer, den wir uns früher selbst gewünscht hätten. Gemeinsam sprechen wir über den Sinn und Unsinn von Hausaufgaben, ob man Noten loben sollte, warum eine Drei oft besser ist, als wir denken und welche Hebel wir als Eltern wirklich in der Hand haben. Außerdem klären wir, warum das sogenannte „Growth Mindset” für Motivation und Lernerfolg entscheidend ist und warum kleine „Overachiever“ nicht automatisch das Ziel guter Bildung sein sollten. Und natürlich geht's auch darum, wie Kinder KI sinnvoll zum Lernen nutzen können – ohne dass sie ihnen das Denken abnimmt. Hier findet ihr Bob Blumes neues Buch: Wie kommt mein Kind gut durch die Schule?https://www.penguin.de/buecher/bob-blume-wie-kommt-mein-kind-gut-durch-die-schule-/paperback/9783442394616 In dieser Folge mit Bob ging's noch ausführlicher um das Thema KI und Schule: https://beste-vaterfreuden.podigee.io/341-warum-noch-lernen-ki-und-die-schule-der-zukunft-mit-bob-blume Und hier haben wir mit ihm über Waldorfschulen gesprochen: https://beste-vaterfreuden.podigee.io/317-was-passiert-wirklich-in-waldorfschulen-mit-bob-blume Du möchtest mehr über unsere Werbepartner erfahren?

Moin und willkommen zum Fleckenhörer am 23. Februar 2026! Neulich hat der Islamhasser Irfan Peci ein Video über Neumünster gedreht, das zur Sache geht. Im Bild/Posting stehen u. a. groß und plakativ: „DIESE ISLAMISTEN SOLLEN KINDER BETREUEN!“ Visuell klar zugeordnet wird dieser Satz zum VIKZ Verband der Islamischen Kulturzentren e. V., die unter anderem die Merkezefendi-Moschee in der Christianstraße 22 betreiben. Die Überschrift zu dem Youtube-Video lautet: „Deal mit der Regierung! Türkische Islamisten übernehmen erste Kindergärten“ Gepostet von Amir Imeri, mit Bezug zur AfD Neumünster. Der Vorwurf lautet also: Der Verband der Islamischen Kulturzentren sei islamistisch und übernehme Kinderbetreuung bzw. einen Kindergarten in Neumünster. Das Wort „Islamist“ ist kein wertfreies Schlagwort, sondern bedeutet im deutschen Rechtsverständnis: Nähe zu verfassungsfeindlichen Bestrebungen. Auch wenn ich den VIKZ in einigen Punkten hart kritisiere: Der VIKZ wird nicht vom Verfassungsschutz als islamistisch eingestuft und es gibt keine offizielle Beobachtung als extremistische Organisation. Die Kombination aus „Islamisten + Kinderbetreuung“ erzeugt bewusst Angst und Gefährdungsassoziationen.️ Der im Screenshot gemachte Vorwurf ist meiner Meinung nach strafrechtlich hoch problematisch und sehr wahrscheinlich als üble Nachrede (§ 186 StGB) einzuordnen. Aber was weiß ich denn schon, was unsere Gerichte derzeit so beschäftigt und ob das den VIKZ überhaupt interessiert. Das sind unsere Themen im Fleckenhörer heute: +++ Mehr Rüstungsexporte in die Golfstaaten? Dramatische Zeitenwende in der Rüstungsexportpolitik und damit das völlig falsche Signal! +++ 15.300 mal die eigenen vier Wände: Neumünster hat eine Wohneigentumsquote von 37 Prozent +++ Selbst OpenAI-Chef Sam Altman spricht nun offen darüber: Manche Unternehmen nennen „KI“ bloß als Vorwand, um Kündigungen zu rechtfertigen Musik: Slaughterhouse (USA) Swan Wash (USA) Peppi P. (Berlin) Soutouda (Afghanistan)

(Feb 18, 2026) Some residents in the village of Fort Edward are raising concerns about a proposal to allow a nearby incinerator process PFAS-contaminated soil; we venture to a snowy forest in Essex, where a young teacher says she's found her calling in a forest Kindergarten; and we have a conversation about a recent memoir that traces one woman's hard fought fight to rehab a derelict house in Indian Lake.

Why jailers in Kentucky are renting their beds to ICE, a lawmaker wants to reward parents with cash for getting their kids ready for kindergarten, a bill to make DNA collection mandatory in felony cases, a push for automatic restoration of voting rights, and the Louisville Orchestra is again going on tour.

In this episode, we're digging into what it actually looks like to raise civic-minded, critical-thinking kids in the absolute chaos that is our current world.  We're talking about how to teach media literacy, logical fallacies, and real civics… not just memorizing the three branches of government, but understanding how power works, how propaganda spreads, and how to ask the most important question of all: who benefits? We share concrete resources, practical ways to explore bias at home, and why empathy isn't a weakness - it's an essential civic skill.Because we are not raising kids for this moment. We are raising adults who will live with the consequences of it.  Think of this episode as your lifeline for progressive parenting in the shit storm that is 2026.  -Hopefully this serves as a reminder that you can't control federal policy, but you can absolutely shape the thinkers sitting at your kitchen table.We'd love to invite you to join our book club.  Reading books among community matters so much.

Was sind für uns die wichtigsten Punkte in der Kindererziehung, oder besser: in der Kinderbegleitung? In dieser Folge starten wir bei eingeschnappten Kühen und der Frage, ob unsere Kinder neben all den anderen Terminen und Verpflichtungen auch noch Skiunterricht brauchen – oder ob nicht auch der Schneepflug komplett ausreichend ist. Wir sprechen aber auch über Trauer und den Verlust der Oma – und wie Jakob damit umgeht, wenn seine Tochter sagt: „Darüber will ich nicht reden.“ Muss man nachbohren? Oder ist Nicht-reden auch eine Form von Verarbeitung, gerade beim ersten Verlust? Am Ende geht's aber vor allem um Selbstständigkeit, Vertrauen und darum, wann wir eingreifen und wann wir besser aushalten. Und damit herzlich willkommen in der Skischule Ananas!

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. Homeschooling can feel isolating, but processing complex topics alongside like-minded people helps fill your cup, sharpen your thinking, and remind you that you're not navigating this alone.

In this episode, Amanda sits down with Kathy Lee Eggers, longtime homeschool mom, child development specialist, and author of The Homegrown Preschooler. Kathy shares her journey through decades of homeschooling and explains why play, connection, and relationship matter so deeply in the early years. She also discusses learning from birth through preschool and how play-based approaches can continue as children grow.The conversation then turns to specific North Carolina homeschool law questions, including when compulsory attendance begins, whether children must be registered for kindergarten, and how families can open a homeschool or include children from another family under state law. Amanda and Melanie walk through these scenarios with practical clarification drawn from NC law and NCHE guidance.The episode closes with homeschool news, upcoming activities, and reflections on how shared experiences and encouragement can shape both parents' perspectives and students' experiences.News and Upcoming EventsNCHE graduation and scholarship opportunities   NCHE scholarship fund giving   https://nche.com/scholarship-donations Ingram Planetarium and Museum of Coastal Carolina field trip  Durham Bulls Education Day   nche.com/2026-durham-bulls/Thrive!

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?

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.

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. From there, it was all about Semptimphelter, who slammed the door with 31 saves, earning his 12th win of the season. The Gladiators improved to 25-9-1, extending their point streak to five games. Next up? A three-game showdown with the Everblades in Estero. Buckle up—it’s going to be a battle. We’ll be right back.

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.

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 …

What if the strongest leaders in your school are already in classrooms, waiting for permission to step up?

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.

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.
