Send us a textWhat if the story of "Mary Had a Little Lamb" held the keys to understanding the essence of Christian faith? Join us as we uncover how Jesus, recognized as the Lamb of God, embodies prophecies and traditions from the Old Testament, culminating in his role as the sinless sacrifice for humanity's redemption. Inspired by Dr. Michael Clore's original message, we trace the profound journey of Jesus' life—from his miraculous virgin birth to the powerful symbolism of his crucifixion that aligns with the Jewish Passover. Experience the fulfillment of ancient prophecies and the profound significance of the virgin birth, highlighting the divine nature of Jesus as essential to Christian salvation.We also venture into the rich symbolism found in the book of Revelation, where a lamb with seven horns and seven eyes represents perfect power and knowledge. This imagery is not just a testament to Jesus' omnipotence and omniscience but also underscores his sovereign authority to fulfill divine promises. Explore how this vision of the exalted lamb aligns with the hymn "Hallelujah Praise the Lamb," celebrating the eternal worthiness and conquest of the Lamb of God. Join us in reflecting on the lamb's eternal significance and its pivotal role in the grand narrative of creation, sacrifice, and ultimate victory.https://www.jacksonfamilyministry.comhttps://bobslone.com/home/podcast-production/
Learn that the idea of gratitude and giving thanks is an ancient concept for mankind and expressly elevated in the Bible. Review how days of thanksgiving were originally commemorated in the English colonies in Virginia and Massachusetts, with the English dissenters, the Pilgrims, having the most influential celebrations. In the colonial era, Thanksgiving celebrations were centered on particular events and circumstances, and, accordingly, happened at different times. As Americans united against British tyranny, they made continental wide proclamations through the Continental Congress, but again tied to specific events and times. President George Washington issued the first two Thanksgiving Proclamations under the Constitution, and John Adams and James Madison did the same. Thomas Jefferson refused, and after James Madison, Thanksgiving was proclaimed by the States, but not by the President, until Abraham Lincoln. Sarah Josepha Hale's drive to create a uniform, nation wide celebration was embraced by Lincoln and his successors, and it became firmly fixed to the Fourth Thursday of November under President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Feasts, running, football, parades, Black Friday, Cyber Monday and Giving Tuesday all flow from this powerful day of gratitude. Highlights include the Bible, Thessalonians 5:16-18, Colossians 2:7, Psalm 100:4, Colossians 4:2, Psalm 92, Philippians 4:6, King Henry VIII, Queen Elizabeth Anne Boleyn, Church of England, John Calvin, Puritans, Common Book of Prayers, King James I, Pilgrims, Mayflower, Plymouth England, Plymouth Harbor Massachusetts, Mayflower Compact, John Locke, Thomas Hobbes, Samoset, Squanto, Wampanoag, William Bedford, Thanksgiving commemoration, Melanie Kirkpatrick, Thanksgiving The Holiday at the Heart of the American Experience, William Bradford, Berkeley Plantation a/k/a Berkeley Hundred, The Margaret, John Woodlief, Jamestown, the Starving Time, Chief Opechancanough, Massacre of 1622, Massachusetts Bay Colony, New Amsterdam, First Continental Congress, Second Continental Congress, Day of Humiliation Fasting and Prayer (1776), Henry Laurens, Thanksgiving Day Proclamation (1777), Battle of Saratoga, Thomas McKean, Day of Thanksgiving and Prayer, George Washington, James Madison, Elias Boudinot, Aedanus Burke, Thomas Tudor Tucker, Federalist Party, Anti-Federalists, Peter Silvester, Roger Sherman, Articles of Confederation, Continental Association, Constitution, William Samuel Johnson, Ralph Izard, Washington Thanksgiving Day Proclamation , Whiskey Rebellion, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Samuel Letter, James Madison, First Amendment, War of 1812, Abraham Lincoln, Sarah Josepha Hale, Mary Had a Little Lamb, Northwood: A Tale of New England, Vassar College, domestic science, Ladies' Magazine, Godey's Lady's Book, Civil War, William Seward, Andrew Johnson, Lincoln Thanksgiving Proclamation, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt a/k/a FDR, National Retail Dry Goods Association, Franksgiving, Allen Treadway, Earl Michener, FDR Thanksgiving Speech, President Lyndon Baines Johnson, Johnson Thanksgiving Speech (1963), President John F.

Today we are covering August 19 – 25, we are going to be talking about – Jimmie Foxx pitching career, Gooden early excellence, Bill Veek grand stand moment, Yogi Berra and the harmonica, Juan Marichal and John Roseboro fight and the professional pinch hitter Matt Stairs. If you love the history of the game, and relate all your stories in life to baseball, and you tend to get goose bumps, grim and even water your eyes a bit when Ray Kinsela asks his Dad to play catch. You are truly at the right place.This podcast is part of thisdayinbaseball.com, if you love baseball history, no matter who you search for you are going to find great nuggets of information. TRIVIA:What owner once bought a jackass as a team mascot and named it after himself? He also had a nickname :The Wizard of ODD.On August 19, 1945 – In game two of a doubleheader against the Cincinnati Reds, 37-year-old slugger Jimmie Foxx makes his first major league start, pitching the first seven innings for the Philadelphia Phillies at Shide Park. He leaves with a 4 – 1 lead, and Andy Karl saves Foxx's only decision, a 6 – 2 final. Here is his stat line his ERA in 10 appearances is 1.52, ERA+ was 243, batters only hit .171 with a .479 OPS and of the 76 batters that faced Foxx not one of them was able to get an extra base hit. The only black mark was 14 Base on Balls vs 10 K's.Foxx also known as “The Beast” had always wanted to pitch, he was a star hurler in High School. However it was the WAR and the end of his career that really gave him a chance. After the 1944 seasons he appeared in only 15 games, but the War gave him another chance as he signed with the Phillies for a final go round. The 3 Time MVP was not fairing any better so they last place Phillies gave him a shot on the mound, and Foxx the future Hall of Famer. Foxx made the most of it to finish his spectacular career. On August 20, 1964 — During a bus ride after a Chicago White Sox sweep the Yankee's 4 straight, Mickey Mantle misinformed his teammate Phil Linz who had been playing Mary Had a Little Lamb on his harmonica that their manager Yogi Berra had asked for the harmonica to be played louder, when in fact he asked him to stop, a confrontation occurs on the back of the team bus between the skipper, and the utility player.As told Mel Stottlemyre a rookie at the time - “Yogi told Phil he was going to shove the harmonica up his ass if he kept playing — plus a few other things. I don't know if it scared Phil but he tossed the harmonica toward Yogi, who slapped it out of the air and whacked it off Joe Pepitone's knee.Linz apologized the next day and he was fined $200,With a bus full of reports the event was well well-publicized Linz apologized the next day and he was fined $200.

Sarah Josepha Hale is known as the "Mother of Thanksgiving," but she's so much more than that. She was an American writer, activist, and editor. At the age of 18, in 1806, she started teaching at a school; however, women were not allowed to be teachers at that time and most women weren't even being taught how to read. She married David Hale and they shared a similar love for learning and reading, spending every night teaching each other about they found interesting. They had five children together, but sadly David passed away unexpectly while she was pregnant with their 5th child. She was left to figure out a way to support herself and her children. She relied on her higher than average education, especially for a woman at the time, and put her faith into her writing abilities. She submitted articles, poems, and even wrote her first novel, "Northwood; A Tale of New England," with great success. Sarah's career was firmly established, making her one of the first American women novelists and one of the first of either gender to write a book about slavery. She's also the author of, "Mary Had a Little Lamb." She served as the editor aka "editress" of the Ladies' Magazine, the first substantial magazine in the United States for Women. She later became the editor of Godey's Lady's Book for forty years, retiring in 1877 when she was almost 90. Throughout all of this she spent decades campaigning for Thanksgiving to be a national holiday. She eventually convinced President Abraham Lincoln and determined that the last Thursday of November will be a National Day of Thanksgiving, so the American people could celebrate grace and good fortune "with one heart and one voice."

In 1827, Sarah Josepha Hale, author of the nursery rhyme, Mary Had a Little Lamb, began a campaign to establish Thanksgiving as a national holiday. For thirty-six years, Sarah lobbied senators, governors, and presidents to declare Thanksgiving as a national holiday. She believed that a national holiday of thankfulness could bring healing to a ... The post The Mother of Thanksgiving appeared first on Unconventional Business Network.
The most famous woman in America in the 1800's created the national holiday of Thanksgiving. But somehow we have lost our knowledge of her many contributions to American culture from Mary Had a Little Lamb to the Christmas Tree. Biographer Melani Kirkpatrick shares the story of Sarah Josepha Hale. And, you think you know of our Thanksgiving traditions but actually they have morphed over the decades. And what we hold most dear might actually be a recent innovation. Historian Matthew Dennis explains.

Have you ever thought about a time before the telephone when Mary didn't yet have a little lamb and there was no Thanksgiving? Those might not seem connected, but this week, Sadie takes us back to early America to talk about the woman who brings it all together, Sarah Josepha Hale. Hale was a 19th-century literary legend who left an indelible mark on American culture and was considered the greatest influence on early American trends and traditions. Best known for penning "Mary Had a Little Lamb," Hale's legacy extends far beyond, with a 40-year career as a pioneering editor, prolific writer, and staunch advocate for Thanksgiving as a national holiday, she played a pivotal role in shaping the entire landscape of her time. We'll discuss Hale, her enduring contributions to literature, and the spirited journey that makes her a timeless figure in American history. Learn more about your ad choices.

Bassoonist Amy Harman and pianist Keelan Carew are today's guests in the studio with Cerys Matthews and Jeffrey Boakye as they add the next five tracks to the playlist. From a gentle nursery rhyme, the musical links take us to a Russian dance, a celebration of the Earth's origins in Estonia, and a testosterone-fuelled TV theme with helicopters and machine guns. Dr Peter J Bentley discusses the increasing use - and challenges - of Artificial Intelligence in music, and the singer/songwriter Mari Kalkun tells us about the origins of her track Kui Kivid Olid Veel Pehmed.

The Todd Sampler: Three Blind Mice review with Todd 'Quality' Jaeger A popular nursery rhyme mutates into a creature horror film with Three Blind Mice, a new Pierre B directed pic acquired by Uncork'd Entertainment for a digital and DVD release October 17. Abi is going cold turkey; her family has taken her to a cabin in the woods so she can be away from the city and all her troubles. However, little do they know, The Three Blind Mice is more than just a fairy tale, and they may be next up on the menu. “Releasing shortly after our other nursery rhyme-turned horror film Mary Had a Little Lamb, Three Blind Mice guarantees horror fans some bloody, disturbing and very entertaining pre-Halloween entertainment”, said Keith Leopard, President Uncork'd Entertainment. “Pierre B, and his talented cast, deliver a title that's bound to be extremely popular.” May Kelly, Lila Lasso, Natasha Tosini, Samantha Cull, and Danielle Ronaldstar star in Three Blind Mice, on Digital and DVD October 17. #ThreeBlindMice #MovieReview #2023 #2023Horror #nurseryrhymes --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/withoutyourhead/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/withoutyourhead/support

Daily Devotional John 10:11-21, "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd sacrifices his life for the sheep. A hired hand will run when he sees a wolf coming. He will abandon the sheep because they don't belong to him and he isn't their shepherd. And so the wolf attacks them and scatters the flock. The hired hand runs away because he's working only for the money and doesn't really care about the sheep. "am the good shepherd; I know my own sheep, and they know me, just as my Father knows me and I know the Father. So I sacrifice my life for the sheep. I have other sheep, too, that are not in this sheepfold. I must bring them also. They will listen to my voice, and there will be one flock with one shepherd. Pastor Vicki Harrison Reflection: What image comes to mind when you think of a sheep? Maybe you imagine a cute, cuddly, fluffy animal roaming around eating green grass. Maybe you think about nursery rhymes, like Mary Had a Little Lamb, which makes sheep sound more like dogs, kind of like fluffy Golden Retrievers. But real-life sheep aren't as cute. In reality, we are very disconnected from sheep and shepherding living in Brandon, Florida, in 2023. Sheep are dirty animals. I remember the last time we went to Colonial Williamsburg and the ladies there said their least favorite job was shearing the sheep because they are so filthy. Sheep tend to also be unintelligent animals and won't survive if they don't have someone to guide them, to protect them, to make sure they don't walk off a cliff or away from the group. In fact, a sheep who wanders away from the group will starve to death because it will not go where the food is. It can hurt itself by rubbing itself to death on a tree or falling down and breaking a leg. Sheep need constant care and attention; a sheep that skips out on this kind of care will in fact die. Hence, the need for a shepherd. Keep in mind, the people that Jesus is speaking to would have understood this. Sheep were plentiful in Palestine in the first century. The people would have known about shepherds. They would have known that shepherding was dangerous, tedious, and hard work. There was nothing cute and cuddly about the sheep the shepherds took care of and really, there was nothing cute and cuddly about the shepherds either. These would have been the kind of guys that were considered a little rough around the edges. They were low, low, low on the totem pole - a necessary job but certainly not one held in high esteem. But what does Jesus say? He says, "I AM the Good Shepherd." This is one of those statements I love because it is another time that Jesus is turning convention on its head. The religious elite would never have compared themselves to a lowly shepherd. But Jesus is saying, "I AM the Good Shepherd." Just like the story of the Good Samaritan when Jesus makes the hated Samaritan the hero of the story, here Jesus is bringing attention to a shepherd of all people. In fact, he says, "I AM the Good Shepherd." I love this because it shows that God's Kingdom comes in surprising ways through surprising people and tends to turn our prejudices upside down. But Jesus is saying not only am I a shepherd, but I am a good shepherd. I am good at what I do. I'm not like the hired hands, the ones who are only watching the sheep because they couldn't get a job doing anything else. You see, the hired hand is not going to risk his life to care for his sheep. He knows it's dangerous work and he knows the sheep are stupid and sometimes he is going to have to get into messy and difficult situations to save them, but in no way is he going to risk his own life to save the sheep. But Jesus, you see Jesus is different. He is willing to give up his own life for the sheep. He is the good and perfect shepherd. He loves his sheep. He is the one who cares for them, feeds them, protects them, promises to never leave them, and who will go to any length to save them. Jesus is our good shepherd. The truth is that we are very similar to sheep - we wander, we make bad choices, we need care, and we don't even realize it! But Jesus loves us anyway. Jesus loves YOU and he gave his life up for you. No matter what you've done, no matter how far you have wandered, the good shepherd is willing to search you out, to find you, clean you up, and tell you how much you are loved! Luke 15:3-7, Then Jesus told them this parable: "Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn't he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, 'Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.' I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent. . https://www.findnewhope.com Our staff and leadership employ what's called the “S.O.A.P.

In this episode, Cody talks to pianist Michele McLaughlin. She says that she's always been musical. When she was in kindergarten, she learned to play the piano. Whatever songs they were singing in class, she would go home and learn them by ear and then play them for her class, almost as a form of show and tell. She remembers Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Mary Had a Little Lamb. Then, when she was 8, and she was getting better at playing, she learned George Winston songs by ear. Specifically his December album. Eventually, she began creating her own music. Michele's albums have their roots in Christmas. Her first one — Beginnings — she gave out as Christmas gifts. She borrowed a digital keyboard and recorded the album onto a cassette tape. Her mom loved it and would play it in her car. So, Michele made 30 copies of that tape and decided to give them away as presents to friends and family. The feedback she got was so encouraging, that it motivated her to keep making albums. Maybe give them away for presents next Christmas. That was in 2000. By 2003, she had put her music online and that was the beginning of her career. She calls her time at the piano her musical diary. It's when she can express her raw emotions and raw feelings. And you can tell. Her music is contemplative, dramatic, triumphant, melancholy and joyous. It's the result of her sitting down and pouring her heart into it. At her performances, before she plays a song, she tells the story behind it. Stories about her family, her hardships, her travels, her pursuit of love. All of the emotions and the experiences that are so integral to her music. She says it's one of her favorite parts of her concerts: Sharing intimate pieces of her life so that her audience might, for at least a moment, feel those same emotions.

When people hear ABA, they usually think of Autism. However, social skills training is a component of applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy that can help students with social skills deficits. ABA social skills training offers a set of techniques designed to strengthen an individual's social skills. Neurological, emotional, and developmental disabilities are often marked by a lack of social intuition. Most people learn social rules and conventions naturally, but they are foreign to individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and other developmental disabilities. Some students find it impossible to master even seemingly simple social interactions. They are identifying social cues, understanding other people's intentions, and knowing when and how to respond and interact with others in social situations are not innate abilities. Individuals often referred to as 'socially blind' lack inherent skills in interacting with others in social situations. Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT) joins me today to discuss social skills rooted in ABA. Justyna Balzar is the Co-Founder & CEO of The Hangout Spot (https://www.thehangoutspotllc.com), a center that offers specialized play and social skills instruction based on Applied Behavior Analysis. They offer thoughtfully structured, experiential small-group learning through on-site programs and remote teaching. Justyna has over 15 years of experience working with learners of varying profiles between the ages of 3 and 18 across multiple settings. She received her Assistant Behavior Analyst (BCaBA) certification in 2014 from the Florida Institute of Technology, her Master in Curriculum and Education in Applied Behavior Analysis from Arizona State University, and her BCBA certification in 2016. Her publications include Behavior Science of the 21st Century blog posts and articles for Autism Parenting Magazine. Driven by a passion for educating others about the wide-reaching applications of ABA, Justyna founded @Behaviorchik, an online persona intended to disseminate behavior analytic resources. She also created the @Theabaadvocacyproject, an initiative spearheaded by The Hangout Spot founders and a fellow BCBA that unifies the advocacy practices of parents and professionals using ABA.

BCBA LBA (CT), Dana Jonson 00:09 Okay, welcome back to Special Ed on special ed. I am your host Dana Jonson, thank you so much for joining me today we have a great episode ahead. I am here with Justina Balzar.Justina is a BCBA. And she's one of the cofounders of the hangout spot which we will explain all to you right after we play my disclaimer, which you all know has to go first.

Okay. Hi, Justina, thank you so much for joining me. How are you doing today? I'm doing great. Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 00:59 I'm very excited to be here. Thank you for having me. Thanks for coming. I think last time we spoke you and Megan a just opened the hangout spot in the middle of a pandemic, and global closings. And I predicted that you guys would be really, really successful because we needed it. And it turns out you were and you're opening another spot. So why I have you on today is I would love to talk about your approach to social skills as a as a BCBA, as a board certified behavior analyst. And I'll have you explain a little bit about what that is. But why you're doing social skills. And I should start by saying the hangout spot is a science back Social Skills Center. So that's what you get Development Center is that social skills development center. So you guys are working on social skills, and you've just opened a new practice called the play space for younger children for ages birth to four, so I want to talk about that. But from an attorney and a parent perspective, when I go into IEP meetings, and we talk about social skills, sometimes it's a speech and language person who's providing the services, sometimes it's a school psychologist, sometimes it's a special ed teacher. And when I hear BCBA, sometimes my head goes straight to autism. And that's just my background and training. And that's not accurate. So what I would love is for you to explain, for everyone listening, from a BCBAs perspective, what's the magic that you guys do? Because we are seeing that with these students who go in and out of your program. So let's talk about social skills development from a behavioral component, and go. So I'm not first of all, I'm not surprised that the first thing that comes into your mind, just as I've encountered it, it happens to go into other practitioners minds, and either even families minds who've been exposed to Ada, that it's really very narrow in terms of that exposure and understanding of that scope. And it primarily people associated, especially in the education system with behavior intervention plans, discrete trial instruction, and just a BCBA, supporting in the consultation model in a school, which certainly is one aspect of it. And also, like you said, pigeonholed to autism, but the science of ADA is really just the science of learning and behavior, and we all behave and we are all capable of learning. Therefore, you can really teach any skill using the science of ABA. Really what it is, is a series of teaching methodologies that you can utilize right in simple layman's terms, to meet someone where they're at, and to assist them with the learning process of whatever it is they need to learn. Typically, in our world in ABA, behavior, analysts shy away from social skills. And actually, quite frankly, lots of people shy away from social skills, because they're very nuanced. And they're very hard to objectively define and narrow down and really identify what's going to be the most meaningful thing that we could teach a learner or a child, a teenager or adult, what have you, that will really impact their world in a really positive way to help them develop those reciprocal relationships. And there's a lot of curriculum out there, right on social, yes, and a lot of it is very cookie cutter. So there's many many amazing aspects to all the curriculum that's out there. However, if you're just using a standard curriculum, you're not really looking at what those individual social needs are for a particular learner. And that's the first area where we can really miss the mark because we're if we're in not teaching what is impacting a child's inability to make relationships in the day to day, and we're just pulling bits and pieces from the curriculum, it's not meaningful, it's not helping them change those behaviors to help them improve those relationships. Right? So it's a boss. And then the other area where we find that thing we have a tendency to fall short is when people just teach kids the rules of what to dothe rules of what's right. And so kids become very, very good at memorizing the rules, talking about the rules, and maybe even applying them to hypothetical scenarios, right. But then when it comes to actually doing those things in the moment, they're not able to, to utilize those skills, right, that they quote, unquote, have. And the reasoning behind that is because knowing something and talking about it, and I'm using quotes, which no one will be able to see and do something, right, actually using a skill are actually two different skill sets. So I can be a little bit of French, right, and, but I have to think about it when I'm talking it. But if I were to talk with a fluent French speaker, I get really stuck, I can theoretically tell you how to ride a skateboard. But if I were to get on a skateboard, I would probably fall and break a bone. Right? So practice is key. And what we do at the hangout spot, and what we do at the play space is we look to meet children where they are. So we identify in real life, what is that thing that's keeping them from developing those relationships? That's the skill that we're going to teach. And how do we create opportunities for them to practice that, so they get really, really good at it, right? So practice is the missing link between knowing and doing you can't say that you know how to play the piano, if you can play Mary Had a Little Lamb. But if you know how to, you know, play something more complex, you're going to really have to practice repeatedly before you get really good at that. That's called fluency. So we teach through playing games. On the surface when kids come in here, and that's our goal is for them to come and have a place where they can have fun, they can meet other peers, and have their interests passions incorporated into the learning. Because when that happens, that's where the magic happens. That's more open to working on the hard stuff. Dana Jonson 07:33 I love that you say that you bring up a couple of things that I think are really important. First, the subjectivity of it, which I I love. When I was in graduate school, we had an exercise where they played a video of a student. And we were to take the data on, I'm gonna say vocalizations, I can't remember what the piece was, let's say vocalizations. And that was a description. Right? So after it, then we were asked to each say, what was our tally, and none of us had the same tally. And the reason was, as they explained to us, we all defined vocalization in our head differently. And so we were all looking for something different. And so on that level of subjectivity, you know, I go into meetings, and I'll see in the paperwork, you know, had a meltdown. And I'm saying, what does that look like? What's a meltdown for this kid, because I've got five children, and each of them have meltdowns, and they are all different, like all of them. So what does that look like? So I love that you brought up the subjectivity, because I find that, you know, that is a problem we run into with social skills a lot in my practice, and in my world, too, because I have a child with nonverbal learning disability, that is a key piece that that I think, is really important for us to remember that even if you think about going to a friend's house for dinner that just had a different family than yours, and the food was different, or the utensils were different, or whatever it was, that was unusual for you and you had to stop and think and navigate. That's like, you know, a kid who doesn't understand social cues. That's what they're doing all the time. Right. So, Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 09:12 yeah Dana Jonson 09:12 So how do you address that subjectivity? How do you guys in the hangout spot address it? I know what the other thing was, I wanted to ask you, though, before we move on to that, sorry, was you talked about meeting the child where they are at, and that's another piece, it's so important. And I think that with social skills, a lot of time we assume a certain level of knowledge before we start teaching them, you know, so we're expecting the student to understand certain things. So how do you as a practitioner, figure out where your child is at? Because if you figure out the wrong place, then whatever you're doing isn't going to be productive. Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 09:51 Right. So I think a couple of things I think the process is fluid, right? It's a process of discovery so ever you as you get to know each time as you're learning more and more about them, right, I think the most powerful way to really find out what those most impactful barriers are, that serve as future learning opportunities is really just to observe, what is the child look like in a social setting, are they moving towards the group and maybe trying to initiate but they're being disruptive or rude or unkind, right? So then they don't know how to initiate attention for appropriately, they have social motivation, because they're going up to a group, but they're not successful. So you could potentially target that is a child playing games with a set of peers. And then anytime the child falls behind, or loses, they have a huge, huge meltdown, right. And then as a result of that kids don't want to play with them anymore, then there's the barrier that can be taught around. So how to tolerate losing How to Use good sportsmanship, you can objectively define a goal around those barriers that you observe. And I think in order to make it most meaningful, what you're looking for in your observation is what are the ones that are occurring most frequently, because those are the ones that are most impactful and need to be supported around. And then you start from there, right, then you create opportunities for practice through play. Dana Jonson 11:20 So you guys just seen a lot of success with this for your three to 22. population, I think it's three to 22, because that's what the IDEA says, provides special education for students between the ages of three and up to the age of 22. And that's in under the IDEA. But I believe, and I just want to point out that even if a child has graduated from high school, if they require social skills, you guys still take them, right? You don't have to be in high school in order to get them that is just a number of sort of arbitrary, but not arbitrarily, but chosen by the law that you guys are, are in a public school. So you're not saying okay, no, you've graduated from high school, you can't come, it goes through 22. Let's talk about that younger population, that birth to four. And what led you to decide to open that separate piece, because from three or four through 22, you're mostly school age for most of that time. So I would presume that the skill sets you're learning and working on would be different than as an infant to four, I'm just guessing. Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 12:28 So they're, they're more scaled up and more complex. So the reason we ended up opening the play space was really from this desire and need to support learners before they hit that school age. So research indicates that kids between the ages of birth to three to five years old, are like sponges, and they are developing lots of new connections. And their brain is just developing really quickly, their bodies are developing really quickly as they're growing. And they're really able to pick up on a lot of skills, which serves as a great opportunity to lay that foundation or lead before kids hit school age. So they have some of those foundational skills going into kindergarten, and then are have a greater chance of being more successful socially. But then also academically, when we think about the jump from from preschool to kindergarten, the expectations of sitting at a table waiting for longer periods of time, more structured, academic based demands, they increased significantly. And if a child doesn't have or hasn't met certain milestones, and doesn't have certain foundational skills, what ends up happening because they enter kindergarten, and they're not ready, maybe they don't have emotional regulation skills, maybe they don't know how to tolerate no or waiting or transitions, what have you. And that then presents itself as behavioral challenges. And when that goes when those skills go on taught for a long period of time, and that child develops that history of responding with behavior with whatever problem behavior that they're trying to communicate their needs with, it become takes longer to then undo and teach. Dana Jonson 14:28 And that's an important piece is what you're saying is because that behavior is them communicating to you. That's the important piece, because I think a lot of times as adults, we get so irritated by the behavior or, you know, frustrated with the behavior that we forget, that's their form of communication, they are behaving that way because they don't have the language to express us or maybe they have expressed it to us and we've ignored them because we don't think it's important for whatever reason, and I'm guilty of that too. You know when you your child falls and you're like, it doesn't hurt. Well, maybe it does. Yeah. Oh, like I get that, you know, coming from that as as an adult. So yeah, that can be that's got to be overwhelming. And also, I think the anxiety around those social pieces would probably be even more so at a young age, because we're really all the skills we're looking for from them at that age are social, aren't they? Man, I'm just trying to think to what everything I thought I needed to look for in my children. And I mean, at no point it too, was I wondering, I wonder if she has pre reading skills like that was not what I was talking about. I was like, does she make eye contact? If she talked to people? Does she wave does she let you know? So those are all social pieces. Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 15:47 They are their social and their communication pieces. And their foundational. So if you don't have those going into school is going to be very, very difficult, right? You don't have the foundational route the groundwork, right? Dana Jonson 16:00 And sitting in your seat is a social skill, right? I mean, isn't that to a degree, if if you're in a situation where sitting in your seat is appropriate, then that would be considered a social skill? Right? Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 16:11 That's the waiting would be a social skill. Right? Dana Jonson 16:14 That's a great Oh, that's a good way to put it. Okay. Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 16:16 Wait, waiting, tolerating know, is a social skill, right? When you're interacting with peers? Sometimes here's how, you no, can you handle that peers are a lot more unpredictable than adults are. Adults are more understanding they're, they're more patient, they really try to figure out what your wants and needs are peers move very, very quickly, right. So kids who don't have those foundational skills, get into an environment with peers who do and those peers are moving very quickly. And, and they're not waiting for those kids to respond, right. They're not waiting for those kids to initiate, they're just moving on right to where they can be successful. And the reality is, we're all social beings, from the moment that we're born, right? I mean, a baby cries and that cry is a form of communication right? There. They're trying to communicate, they're hungry, they're trying to communicate, they need cuddles or a diaper change, whatever that is, and, and if we, as a child develops, from birth to one to two to three, right, there's certain communicative and social markers that need to be hit. And when those aren't hit, that's when those things will compound over time. If they're not taught explicitly, every child develops at a different rate, right? Some kids learn to read by the time they're two or three, well, two might be an exaggeration. Some children learn how to read does everybody need to learn by by the time they're three? No, right? There's exceptions to every single rule. But there are basic foundational markers that are really important to hit. And if we're noticing that they're not being that, then it's really a critical time to be able to intervene and to support and the way to do that. And the way to teach that is through play. Because that's how children learn, especially at those ages, children are exploring their environment through play, and we can embed lots of opportunities for practice that way and support them and model the skills they need, and to be able to use to succeed. So it's really something we're very passionate about. Because we've seen in working in public schools, we've often seen too many kids that come into kindergarten, from preschool, and who don't have the skills aren't, don't have things like tolerating, no accepting, waiting, transitioning, and how to get a peers attention to even recognize or show interest in peers. And then they're thrown into an environment that doesn't allow them to work on that, because that environment focuses on academics, and that it gets exacerbated further and further and further. And you, you potentially, you know, have a child who's in third or fourth grade, who has behavioral challenges and misunderstood and is lacking a lot of skills. And we're racking our brains trying to do every possible evaluation under the sun to try and figure out what's going on. Dana Jonson 16:16 But and I think that's a great one, because you'll hear I'll hear, you know, well, he's a little quirky, he likes to be by himself, he likes to, you know, whatever. And then suddenly, in third grade, the child's have behavior problem. And it doesn't dawn on anyone that maybe this child was being quiet and a loner, because they couldn't navigate right social environment, and at younger ages, kids are kinder and, you know, tolerate parallel play a lot longer. I think a lot of children who are not engaging in parallel play will tolerate parallel play. So it looks like they're interacting, right so your child who's not who's parallel playing the other kid doesn't mind right, they're doing their own thing that like you, do you it looks like a social interaction. But it's, it's not a social interaction. Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 20:06 Totally hear you kids have to move through the different stages not only of communication, but also play. And, and in parallel play, you need to be able to tolerate having a peer in proximity, right. But you can be able to develop those skills to get into more complex forms of play, like associative and cooperative, where you're actually commenting and interacting more directly with your peers. Dana Jonson 20:28 And I could see somebody going straight from and skipping that tolerating the peers in your space part, because the kids having behaviors, and now we're teaching them to cooperate, but we never taught them to tolerate the people in it, right, Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 20:42 they're not ready for it. Dana Jonson 20:44 So they're not there yet. So that's where I see the skip sometimes when I get involved is, you know, I see that we're working on skills that aren't going anywhere, because they're like three steps ahead of where the child might be. And we have to break it down even farther. And that's where I find the challenges typically with parents when I'm when I'm representing a client, or even with my own children, where I see the goals and objectives. And while they're more on the student, sometimes, that's always difficult, because it's like the student will do this. But again, I've clearly not had enough coffee, because I totally lost my train of thought, again. Last night, I was presenting, and I lost my train of thought twice in the middle of a sentence, and I was live. And I was just like, so that's over. Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 21:32 I think I know where you're going with the thing that I see as an indication that a goal is too high for a child, particularly in IEPs, when I'm looking at social goals, is when and this is rampid. Regardless of whether or not we're talking about social goals, academic speech, right? You have, I see it everywhere. But particularly since we're on the topic of social and social goals, when I see a goal phrased as the child will master this with X number of prompts, that raises a flag to me. And the reason that that raises a flag to me is for two reasons, actually. So the one being if someone has to follow you around and provide you a verbal prompt, you have not mastered that skill, you can only demonstrate that when you have a body cueing you on what to say and when to say it, which is concerning, because that's not the definition of mastery. And then why are we then taking that skill off the child's practice list when they don't actually have it? The second concern that I have is, if we have goals that have prompting built into it, and we get that, well, they're just not going to master it out in a year. The question I have is why, because if you can't make progress on a skill in a year, to me, that indicates that the skill we're targeting is either not meaningful, or it's too high for the learner. And we should be picking something that the child can actually master with over the course of a year to attendance, and not with someone verbally prompting them or visually cueing them, right. Unless the plan is for the child to have someone following them around for the rest of their lives. That's not really successful. Dana Jonson 23:26 I'm just gonna, I'm just gonna take that little piece of what you just said and play it at all my IEP meetings now if that's okay. Now, it just sounds so simple when you say it, it that it's ridiculous, we don't follow it. But it's absolutely true. If the child cannot master this in a year with independence, how is it a goal? How is it an objective, right? Because these are supposed to be annual goals. They're short term objectives. And I do understand learning certain levels of a skill first, but I liked the way you said that, you know, if they're not ready to learn this independently, the maybe there's a smaller piece of that skill that they can get independently that maybe we're trying to teach too many skills at the same time. Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 24:13 Yeah. Dana Jonson 24:14 And I go back to like, way back when when I'd be teaching students how to, like brush their teeth or something. Maybe I'm just teaching them to pick up the toothbrush. Right? That might be the only thing I'm teaching them to do at the beginning. I'm not teaching them how to put toothpaste on it, you know. So I see that I'm just I'm processing it as you're saying it because it sounds like yeah, you're right. Absolutely. If they can't wait a year, it shouldn't be an objective. Why am I even contemplating this? Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 24:41 We don't want goals that are too easy that are going to be mastered on within a month, if we can openly say well, they're not going to master this in a year to independence. Why is that even being considered? Dana Jonson 24:52 So let me ask you a question because I have a question on this. So if you have a skill, let's say brushing teeth, okay. So let's say we're brushing teeth, and we're gonna break it down to picking up the toothbrush, right? That's the first step. And then the second step is going to be picking up the toothbrush and putting it under the water. Right. So the second step is to put it under the water. What's the objective? Do you have two separate objectives? Both of which would be masters, but you're only working on a second one after you've mastered the first one? Or is there a different way to write that so that it's longer? Did that make sense? Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 25:27 Yeah. So I think I understand what you're saying, I think what you can do is have an overarching goal, and then that goal, be separated out into objectives and each objective is a step, and you have to master step one, before you move on to teaching the second objective. And the third objective, what I think is important is that we only put in the number of objectives under an overarching goal that we feel a child can master out in a year. And what that's going to look like for each child is very different, right? I can't imagine a child wouldn't be able to master out brushing their teeth in a year. If they can't, then the question is, are they practicing? Is someone showing them how to do it? A year is a really long time to master a skill of brushing teeth? Or is there something else happening perhaps physiologically, where the child's doesn't have like the ability to pinch and grasp? You know, pinch it hold a toothbrush? Right? Like that's a whole separate skill if if a pinch, or do those like motor movements, then we shouldn't even be teaching skills that require that because that's a prerequisite skill to be able to do any of that. Right. So I think it really depends on the child. But I think the biggest point is to make sure we're we're picking a goal, right and get to independence and breaking down only the steps that we're going to be working on that we feel are doable within a year, and then working on one mastering it out moving on to the next on to the next and then the whole goal is mastered. Dana Jonson 26:52 Got it. Yeah. So that I mean, because sometimes I do see that where I see goals that are maybe really or objectives that are super short term. And so they master them really fast. They do see that sometimes where pieces are broken out, but they don't necessarily make sense, because they're just random pieces of the skill as opposed to going in a specific order. What do you feel a BCBA has that say, a school psychologist or special ed teacher does not have that makes them more equipped to design this kind of program for a child? Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 27:27 The great questions, so I think potentially, as long as there's a mechanism for collecting and monitoring data, other practitioners can be trained or can learn to support learners, effectively, I think the piece that's missing often is we don't have a way of regularly taking, collecting, measuring, and analyzing data on progress. And that can really skew our ability to really understand whether a child is making progress, being able to effectively look at our teaching methodologies and whether or not those are helpful or not, and they need to change. And that's what data helps us to do. You know, from a BCBA perspective as BCBAs we have the unique ability and understanding of of behavior and different teaching strategies and to be able to enhance motivation and really break thing. Dana Jonson 28:37 It's all scientifically backed, right? It's all scientifically backed, right. Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 28:43 But there's, there's an immense amount of value from a multidisciplinary collaboration. There are so many things that as BCBA, we can learn from speech pathologists and OTs and psychologists. Right, I think the bottom line is all fields would benefit from adopting database tracking right on on those, that there? Dana Jonson 29:06 Well, yeah, my first my first job teaching was at the National Center for Children is all ABA and data driven and all of that. So it's a little baffling to me when I got out of there and went into a public school. And I was like, what you guys don't all do this, like, not everybody tracks data this way. What I don't understand. So I have that background, which has been very helpful for me. But yeah, that is what you're saying is what I see as well. And one of the challenges I have when we want to do any kind of behavior, social, whatever plan with someone who's not a BCBA is if you're a BCBA, I have confidence that you know exactly how to track this behavior and track the data. If you're not, I don't know that. That's just as a professional sitting across the table. I don't I have competence. I know that you as a principal might tell me that you have a great school psychologist. And they may be, but I don't know that and there's nothing in their training that tells me that they would be good at this. Whereas with a BCBA, if you are a board certified behavior analyst is, am I saying it right? I'm getting all my letters messed up today, it's awful. But if you are a BCBA, I know you've had that training. I've know you've taught that supervision, you know that that practicum time that you have learned how to take this data, and more so than just like one class in graduate school. And so that that, to me is what the big difference is. And in Connecticut anyway, I know that if we were doing a behavior plan for a child of functional behavioral analysis beforehand, if you have autism, it has to be a BCBA. I think right there, we're talking about how important it is to have that skill set behind you. So it's not to say this, you said like a multidisciplinary program could be great with the right training and supervision. And so I get that. So I guess, gosh, you've given me so much good information. And I'm so happy you guys have now opened another look, well, where are your locations? Let's go with that. Let's Where Where are you now? Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 31:11 We have one location. We're located in Norwalk, Connecticut, right off of Exit 16 on 95. So we're very, very close to the highway, which is very convenient. And hopefully in the future, we'll we'll have some some more location, 31:27 I'm, Dana Jonson 31:27 I'm, I would really appreciate it. If you could open a spot in Danbury, that'll be very helpful. Stacey, the advocate, my office asked me to make that request of you when we were chatting. So yeah, if you could bring your magic up here. That'd be great. So on it? Well, and I think it's also important to know you guys do do assessments, you do work with school districts, you do work with parents, you work with everybody, right? Justyna Balzar, M.Ed. BCBA LBA (CT), 31:54 We here Yes, we do support. We do a lot of collaborations with schools on social, our goal is really to help kids learn not only learn to use the skills that they're working on with us here, but but more importantly than that, being able to take them and use them everywhere else. Because if they can't do that, then we haven't been successful. So you know that our generalization is our ultimate mastery criteria. Dana Jonson 32:21 generalization is good, that's important. I always say that. I'm like, Well, I'm thrilled that they're doing this properly in the resource room, but they're not going to live there forever. So where else? Are they going to do it? So I think that's great. So for people listening, who are like, Oh, my God, how have I not found the hangout spot yet? Or the play space? Where can they find it? And where can they find you? Absolutely. So they can go to our website, www dot the hangout spot llc.com.

Welcome to November 24, 2022 on the National Day Calendar. Today we celebrate freedom of choice and a meal that brings us together. Anna: In this season of gratitude, perhaps some of you are grateful you don't have to cook a turkey today. Is anyone out there celebrating Turkey Free Thanksgiving? Yep that's a thing. I know you cook turkey two ways John. John: That's right - roasting and smoking. Anna: And you probably aren't on the hook at all for cooking a bird, eh Marlo? Marlo: I just show up. John: Come on down! Anna: But in case anyone else wants to take this off the menu it's totally legit. Think of all the time you'll save and wondering whether to brine or not to brine. We probably should have told you in advance this was an option. But if you find yourself with a roasting emergency, don't call the turkey hotline, just announce that you're proudly celebrating a Turkey Free Thanksgiving. Sarah Hale, the author of Mary Had a Little Lamb, played a key role in our celebration of Thanksgiving. In 1862, she wrote to President Lincoln, asking him to make Thanksgiving a national holiday. Though he didn't respond for another year, Lincoln fulfilled her request in the midst of the Civil War. He declared the holiday by asking Americans to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November as a Day of Thanksgiving and Prayer. Today we carry on that tradition in many different ways but Thanksgiving Day is still an opportunity to bring family and friends together in the spirit of gratitude. I'm Anna Devere and I'm Marlo Anderson. Thanks for joining us as we Celebrate Every Day. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Sarah Josepha Hale was born in New Hampshire in 1788. In an era when the average American life expectancy was forty years, she lived until 1879—91 years—and has been remembered by posterity primarily for two things: the poem popularly known as “Mary Had a Little Lamb,” and the American tradition of Thanksgiving. Hale made herself “one of the most influential women of the nineteenth century.”

On January 3rd, 1990, days after a unified East and West Berlin welcomed the new decade with a memorable New Years celebration a few feet away from Brandenburg Gate, German producers Luca Anzilotti and Michael Münzing unleashed "The Power," a song that blended soul, dance, and rap sounds. Though they weren't the first to come up with this fusion, the result was one of the most recognizable songs of all time and a symbol of the often problematic practices found in relationships between artists and production teams.Penny Ford, a vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, and composer with years working alongside greats like Chaka Khan, Joni Mitchell, Zapp, and the Gap Band, was caught in the whirlwind of it all, and saw her life completely turned upside down by the unexpected opportunity of fronting the Snap! project, and securing its afterlife for the next three decades.Show TracklistingIn The Name Of Love (Sharon Redd)Tell Me Something Good (Rufus feat.

For half a century Sarah Josepha Hale was the most influential woman in America. As editor of Godey's Lady's Book, Hale was the leading cultural arbiter for the growing nation. Women (and many men) turned to her for advice on what to read, what to cook, how to behave, and―most important―what to think. Twenty years before the declaration of women's rights in Seneca Falls, NY, Sarah Josepha Hale used her powerful pen to promote women's right to an education, to work, and to manage their own money.There is hardly an aspect of nineteenth-century culture in which Hale did not figure prominently as a pathbreaker. She was one of the first editors to promote American authors writing on American themes. Her stamp of approval advanced the reputations of Edgar Allan Poe, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Nathaniel Hawthorne. She wrote the first antislavery novel, compiled the first women's history book, and penned the most recognizable verse in the English language, “Mary Had a Little Lamb.”Americans' favorite holiday―Thanksgiving―wouldn't exist without Hale. Re-imagining the New England festival as a patriotic national holiday, she conducted a decades-long campaign to make it happen. Abraham Lincoln took up her suggestion in 1863 and proclaimed the first national Thanksgiving.Most of the women's equity issues that Hale championed have been achieved, or nearly so. But women's roles in the “domestic sphere” are arguably less valued today than in Hale's era. Her beliefs about women's obligations to family, moral leadership, and principal role in raising children continue to have relevance at a time when many American women think feminism has failed them. We could benefit from re-examining her arguments to honor women's special roles and responsibilities.Lady Editor re-creates the life of a major nineteenth-century woman, whose career as a writer, editor, and early feminist encompassed ideas central to American history.-Melanie Kirkpatrick is a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute and a former deputy editor of the Wall Street Journal editorial page. She is the author of Thanksgiving: The Holiday at the Heart of the American Experience and Escape from North Korea: The Untold Story of Asia's Underground Railroad. She has lived in Tokyo, Toronto, Hong Kong and Manhattan and now resides in rural Connecticut.
