On April 2, 2025, during a high school track meet at Kuykendall Stadium in Frisco, Texas, 17-year-old Karmelo Anthony allegedly stabbed fellow student Austin Metcalf following a dispute over seating. According to the police report, Anthony, a student at Centennial High School, was sitting under the Memorial High School team tent when Metcalf, a Memorial student, asked him to leave. Witnesses stated that Anthony warned, "Touch me and see what happens," before Metcalf either touched or grabbed him. Anthony then reportedly retrieved a knife from his bag and stabbed Metcalf once in the chest. Metcalf collapsed and later died despite CPR efforts.Upon arrest, Anthony told officers he acted in self-defense, stating, "He put his hands on me. I told him not to." He also inquired if Metcalf would be okay and whether his actions could be considered self-defense. Anthony was charged with first-degree murder and initially held on a $1 million bond, which was later reduced to $250,000. He was released under house arrest with electronic monitoring. The case has drawn significant public attention, with fundraising efforts for both families and discussions about self-defense laws and youth violence. to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:karmelo-anthony-arrest-report.pdf

//The Wire//2300Z February 20, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: THOUGHT CRIMES REMAIN CONCERNING THROUGHOUT EUROPE. KASH PATEL CONFIRMED AS FBI DIRECTOR. TWO JUVENILES ARRESTED FOR ALLEGED SCHOOL ATTACK PLOT IN TEXAS.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Scotland: This morning a 74-year-old woman was arrested for speech and thought crimes. Rose Docherty (a well known, pro-life advocate) was arrested for demonstrating via standing on a sidewalk outside Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, a very large medical complex that houses abortion facilities. At the time of her arrest she was holding a sign that read "Coercion is a crime, here to talk, only if you want".-HomeFront-Texas: Two juveniles were arrested for an alleged plot to attack a school in Houston. The two unidentified girls, aged 15 and 16, allegedly posted the details of the plot on social media.Washington D.C. - In Congress, Kash Patel was confirmed as the next Director of the FBI this afternoon. This morning Senator Mitch McConnell announced that he will be stepping down from his seat in the Senate. AC: This is not an immediate resignation, but rather an announcement that he will not seek reelection next year.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: The arrest of Rose Docherty was made under the so-called "buffer zone" laws, which have recently gained scrutiny after being denounced by American Vice President JD Vance. Regardless of the recent media coverage, the policing of thought crimes and the persecution of Christianity throughout Scotland, the British Isles, and almost all of western Europe has remained a little-discussed (yet exceptionally grave) concern for many years. Silent Christian prayer, even including praying inside one's own home, has been relentlessly targeted by authorities, drawing the ire of those who have been subjected to public Islamic calls for prayer, which have included the participation of hundreds of official government officials and buildings. As pointed out by American diplomats (such as JD Vance), this double standard is a very large societal problem that is impacting civilization itself throughout Europe.Regarding the alleged threats in Texas, neither of the two girls were attendees of the school which was threatened (Memorial High School), both were students at neighboring schools. While inter-school rivalries are extremely common throughout the nation, in this case authorities state that the undisclosed attack details were specific and credible enough to warrant the arrests. However, the FBI is the lead agency in charge of this investigation, which has caused doubts due to the FBI's long and very questionable history pertaining to these types of events.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//

Our guest today is from my home state.....well, that is if you are counting the very state that any of my ancestors ever lived in, in America, that is.  My ancestors founded two town towns in Connecticut in the 1600's, and whenever I am lucky enough to interview a guest from that great state, I have to brag about that for a moment. Coming back to present day, Amelia Withington, just finished up her 11th grade year of school and will be starting back as a senior very, very soon.  During her time in the FFA she has been creating one of my favorite, value added products - goat milk soap.  This is such a great product and business for an FFA student who raises goats and is looking to make great money. When you start looking into the benefits of goat milk soap, it almost sells itself.  And goats can be kept in a small area but still produce a large amount of milk, or in Amelia's case, raw materials!  Operating a business like this, Amelia is able to learn about agriculture production, value adding, marketing and sales.  It is a great way for a student to learn about business and industry! Amelia's business is called "Just A Girl And Her Goats Soap And Stuff" and she is selling her products in farmers markets in her area.  She has also recently obtained an alpaca, and she plans on harvesting fleece from it for another value added produce, yarn!

REASONS TO DONATE TO FFA: Only 2% of Americans grow and raise most of the food and livestock consumed by the other 98% as well as the rest of the world.  FFA is providing the needed education, training and resources to Americans that will carry that torch forward and insure that America continues to have inexpensive, quality food. Rural Communities will rely on entrepreneurship in the future for population growth and job creation.  The FFA is a major catalyst to that entrepreneurial growth. Farmers, ranchers and those working in agriculture give the rest of America incredible amounts of freedom because the search for food is as simple as going to the grocery store: “The future of American agriculture depends on the involvement and investment in America's youth, In order to prepare for the population of tomorrow, we need to encourage America's youth today, and show that careers in agriculture are profitable, rewarding, and vital.”.

Steve Collins is a teacher and the head basketball coach at Memorial High School in Madison. His long track record of success includes multiple state championships and coach of the year awards. Coach Collins is also known for his broader work in the coaching world, including a business, active social media presence, and multiple podcasts. He joined the SGG podcast and we discussed: 1. Learning from his dad, his brother, and Madison East basketball Coach Boyle. 2. The Great Swami 3. Coach Boyle: “He had a lot of confidence in me.” 4. “When I speak at clinics, I ask coaches to close their eyes and imagine the coach that was their most influential coach and why…It's never Xs and Os. It's an interpersonal thing that made them feel complete…How did he make them feel? I try to remember that when I'm coaching too.” 5. Human beings want to feel loved and they want to have meaning. 6. The importance of having close relational connections with the team: “It's the secret sauce. It's what's most important.” 7. “Taking a piece” of each coach he worked for. 8. Developing a blue print for building the Memorial program: scouting, summer camps, youth program… and a future NBA player. 9. The importance of having smart and supportive administration in a school. 10. “If I was coaching the same way I was 25 years ago, I would be unemployed…Things change. You better adapt with the times.” 11. “You have to adjust. You have to see your surroundings. See your players. See what their strengths and weaknesses are. And as a teacher, you always want to accentuate the positives and work on the negatives.” 12. Having a growth mindset as a coach. 13. Being willing to “throw out” plays and schemes that aren't working. 14. High school coaches can't recruit players to a system – so they need to be willing to recognize what they have talent-wise and appropriately adapt. 15. Delegating roles among a coaching staff. 16. The two most important days for a coach: the day you choose your team and the day you choose your staff. 17. Is there still a place for clinics? Yes, for bonding. Less so for content. 18. A perspective lesson from Covid: “Let's enjoy the time we have!”

Today's Social Dilemma, the Madison School Board is considering renaming James Madison Memorial High School. A former student says because the schools namesake and former president was a slave owner, the school should be renamed after Vel Phillips, the first state- wide elected official. This one is personal for me, I graduated from JMM in 1979, While I have great respect for Vel Phillips, I think James Madison did far more good than bad. Our city was named after the president after all.

Show #586   Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Friday 20th September 2019. It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story to save you time.   Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too.   LG CHEM MASS PRODUCING NCM CYCLICAL BATTERIES FOR TESLA "LG Chem has begun to mass produce batteries for Tesla’s Model 3 electric vehicles from its Nanjing plant in China, according to industry sources Sept. 18. The US-based EV maker will be using LG Chem’ 21700 type batteries using NCM811 that boast a nickel proportion of 80% or more. The LG company previously supplied the NCM811 to electric buses. This is the first time to supply an automobile, the sources said." reports TheElec.kr: "Until now, Tesla has been supplied by Japan’s Panasonic, which uses NCA, which is another type of high nickel cathode material. LG Chem convinced Tesla to switch to NCM811 batteries based on the longer driving distances per charge. It also hinted that it may be able to begin mass producing NCMA batteries, which is even higher in nickel, beginning in 2022 to apply to EVs."   http://en.thelec.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=512   DAIMLER ENDS GAS ENGINE DEVELOPMENT: FULL FOCUS ON ELECTRIC CARS "Daimler has just announced that it is halting all future development of gasoline engines. The automaker will solely focus on electric cars from here on out. This implies that Mercedes-Benz is taking the same approach." says InsideEVs. Translated for Auto Motor Und Sport: "Daimler is currently bringing the latest generation of internal combustion engines to market in various models, such as the new inline six-cylinder engine for the E- and S-Class as well as the SUVs - this generation could also be the last." Auto Motor und Sport says that this bit of news comes from Daimler development chief Markus Schaefer, who suggests that Daimler's roadmap currently has no plan, for future gasoline engine development, though he notes that the outlook could change. However, the focus now is on electric-drive, with gas and diesel engines on the backburner."   https://insideevs.com/news/371793/daimler-no-gas-engine-electric-only/   CHINA IS WINNING THE RACE TO DOMINATE ELECTRIC CARS "China’s gasoline demand, after almost doubling between 2010 and July 2019, is now essentially flat. China diesel demand, meanwhile, peaked several years ago." reports Bloomberg: "China’s sales of “alternative energy vehicles” — mostly electric, with some hybrids and a small number of natural gas combustion engines — are nearly 1.5 million. Meanwhile, sales of all passenger vehicles peaked at close to 25 million in the middle of 2018, and are now below 22 million." And the story of China is one dominated by domestic makers: "There is only one company in the top 10 by percent of electric passenger vehicle revenue that isn’t Chinese: Japan’s Mitsubishi Corp. Two Chinese automakers get more than 40% of revenue from electric vehicle sales; a third gets nearly a quarter of its revenue from EVs." It's really a two horse race between Chery and BYD. Along with JAC, BAIC, Jiangling, Geely and WM Motor amongst many others.   https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2019-09-20/electric-vehicle-market-so-far-belongs-to-china"   VOLKSWAGEN WANTS ITS ELECTRIC CARS TO MIRROR TRADITIONAL PRICING MODEL "Electric cars likely have years before they reach cost parity with vehicles donning an internal-combustion engine, but Volkswagen wants to scrap the waiting game. Instead, it's looking at an "apples to apples" kind of approach for its electric vehicles. That's the word from Volkswagen America CEO Scott Keogh." says Roadshow by CNET: "The CEO told Green Car Reports in an interview published Tuesday that the automaker's goal is to price its electric cars comparable to a similar fossil fuel-powered model in its lineup. In this case, he spoke of the forthcoming ID 4 -- an electric SUV that will mark VW's electric car assault on the US. The ID 4 should be sized similarly to the Tiguan crossover SUV, and with a price point to match the traditional car, it VW "is positioning it for the masses." As a reminder, the Tiguan starts at $25,290 after a destination charge."   https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/volkswagen-electric-car-pricing-msrp-id3-id4/   TATA MOTORS TO ROLL OUT ELECTRIC CARS, SUVS ON NEW ZIPTRON PLATFORM "Tata Motors is working on a range of electric passenger vehicles including SUVs based on its new e-vehicle technology Ziptron. The company, which is already producing electric versions of its Tigor hatchback car, plans to launch the first e-vehicle on Ziptron electric powertrain technology in Q4 of FY20 and will follow this up with at least 3-4 more products." according to India Times: "nd even though the government’s e-mobility focus is for public transport, the Ziptron range “will primarily focus on personal buyers – we are not targeting volumes but more a progressive move towards e-mobility. In terms of electric commercial mobility, Tata Motors will not only get into all-electric buses but also focus on last-mile cargo options."   https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india-business/tata-motors-to-roll-out-electric-cars-suvs-on-new-ziptron-powertrain-platform/articleshow/71218877.cms   NEW CARSHARE SERVICE WITH 2,000 ELECTRIC VEHICLES LAUNCHING IN METRO VANCOUVER "There will soon be a new carshare player in Metro Vancouver, and its name is SUMO — short for Shared Use Mobility Company." according to Daily Hive: "A smartphone app for the service will be ready by the summer of 2020. SUMO’s initial fleet of vehicles will use 100 Hyundai electric IONIQ cars and 50 Hyundai KONA cars, plus a range of other vehicles such as Volkswagen ID, Audi E-tron, Tesla, and the Ford F-150 electric truck. As the all-electric vehicle fleet and the number of hubs grow, the business model will shift to intra-hub pick-up and return. When the fleet size reaches a critical mass stage, SUMO will become a regional free-float service, with an aim to have 2,000 vehicles by the end of 2022."   https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/sumo-carshare-electric-vancouver-surrey   THIS HIGH SCHOOL CLASS TEACHES KIDS TO EV-SWAP CLASSIC VWS "Auto shop classes have been dwindling in the United States as the high-budget course is simply too expensive for most schools to run. In the case of Memorial High School in West New York, New Jersey, shop teacher Ron Grosinger witnessed the elective course go from six teachers down to two. But Grosinger recognized shop class is still an important hands-on learning experience for students, so he found a way to keep it relevant for years to come." writes CarBuzz: "So in 2008, he approached the school with a new idea: teaching his students to convert a gasoline car into an electric car. Since beginning the program in 2008, it has expanded to four teachers and the school added an after-school automotive program. There are also more female students than when the program began."   https://carbuzz.com/news/this-high-school-class-teaches-kids-to-ev-swap-classic-vws     QUESTION OF THE WEEK The MYEV.com Question Of The Week…   What is your dream EV roadtrip?   I want to say a heartfelt thank you to the 253 patrons of this podcast whose generosity means I get to keep making this show, which aims to entertain and inform thousands of listeners every day about a brighter future.

Why does it take a moment of desperation to send us to our knees in prayer? Sadly, it’s true. The thing is, God is always accessible, hears our prayers no matter how broken, and he wants to see good things happen in our lives. We can approach him anytime we need help, not just when we are desperate. As we talk to Debreon Davis about building authentic community we realized that part of growing a community of people we can love and love us in return will necessitate prayer. God, bring us the right women in our lives. Debreon Davis is currently the principal at Edmond North High School. Debreon grew up in Edmond, Oklahoma and attended college at Evangel University in Springfield, Missouri and the University of Central Oklahoma where she played basketball and studied Psychology. After graduating from college she went back to her high school alma mater, Edmond Santa Fe High School, where she taught Business classes, coached girls basketball and was the student council sponsor. During this time Debreon was also active with her church, serving as a sponsor for the youth group and children's ministry. Debreon then became an Assistant Principal at Memorial High School where she worked for 5 years with various grade levels, building strong relationships with students and teachers with a strong focus on curriculum development. Debreon started volunteering with YoungLife and developed numerous relationships mentoring young ladies throughout their high school and college years. Debreon is now in her third year as the head principal at Edmond North High School, doing what she loves the most - leading and loving our teenagers. Debreon and her family are active members of the Edmond and Oklahoma City community and believe in the importance of servant leadership. Debreon went through the OKC SALLT Young Leaders class in 2017-2018 and cherished the relationships built and challenge to love and serve our community. In 2017 Debreon was the recipient of the National Milken Educator Award, known as the “Oscars of Teaching”. This award is unique in that educators do not apply for or know when they have been nominated, the Milken Foundation finds its candidates and surprises them in school assemblies across the nation each year. Earlier this year, Debreon received the President's Award from the Edmond Public Schools Foundation for her commitment to excellence in education and high levels of learning for all students. Debreon is a women who is passionate about life and the importance of loving everyone we encounter. Today's episode is sponsored by Mom's Best Friend.

Best Friend Weekend Podcast

In the first part of our three-episode account of Best Friend Weekend Phase III, we’re dropping an episode that was recorded the night before the trip. Aldo NICE, Rog Smuve, and Los aka C.A.P. got together to talk about the news stories of the week and prepare for our trip to D.C. Rumble Williams got us started with his thoughts on tipping waiters (01:00), which led to a discussion about respecting my change and tipping different types of servers. Aldo let us know what was Burning His Boudin such as SBC Global email addresses (11:00) and living off your dead homeboy’s gas (16:00). Three stories with local appeal were tackled as we talked about Jason Mitchell’s downfall (23:00), the attempted extortion of Tyrann “Honey Badger” Mathieu (27:00) and the racist “thug day” that took place at Memorial High School in Houston (31:00). The philanthropic gesture of Robert F. Smith to the Morehouse College graduating class of 2019 was a fun thing to revisit (37:00) before we ended the podcast with Rumble’s Question of the Week (42:00) and our thoughts on Monique’s thirsty comments (46:00).

Dad of three, electronics engineering guru, travel enthusiast, Memorial High School graduate and Cherokee Heights Middle School Counselor Nehemirah Barrett talks with us as we celebrate both Black History Month and National School Counseling Week.   Mr Barrett takes joy in building relationships with kids and helping them learn from their mistakes. "You can make as many mistakes as you want. You can always get up and move past them. I honestly think that how I was raised, losing a mother and a father at that age, I was able to push through that and live under these crazy circumstances... you can do anything you want to do." *** To request a written transcript of this episode, please email mmsdnews@madison.k12.wi.us.

Listening, caring, building trust, and knowing each student individually. These are among the pillars of “culturally responsive teaching.” In this piece, we take you inside a classroom at O’Keeffe Middle School in Madison, Wisconsin, to see how these strategies, and more, are helping students break through to become independent learners, prepared to succeed and defy the achievement gap.  *** Credits: Intro/Outro music by MicroSchool students Cheviest and Montevious.  Other music by Ryan Aranda.  Thank you to 8th grade teacher Tracy Warnecke.  Resources:  Zaretta Hammond's Culturally Responsive Teaching and the Brain *** Transcript: (musical intro with mash-up of different voices) my main passion is robotics engineering. I kind of feel like we're on the radio. This has been my dream like forever. It makes you want to be a better student inside the classroom. I want to be a astronaut go outerspace. Try to understand where I fit in a society that doesn't always cherish my presence.

Memorial High School 2009 graduate now 0:00:56.100,0:00:58.890 I work for the School District I 0:00:57.539,0:01:00.780 graduated from as a bilingual 0:00:58.890,0:01:02.609 communication specialist

0:01:05.670,0:01:09.479 teacher known for being great at getting 0:01:07.530,0:01:11.310 kids to push themselves academically and 0:01:09.479,0:01:12.920 achieve a high levels by relating to 0:01:11.310,0:01:15.090 them connecting to their lives 0:01:12.920,0:01:15.540 understanding them and gaining their 0:01:15.090,0:01:17.460 trust 0:01:15.540,0:01:19.110 it's a story on culturally responsive 0:01:17.460,0:01:21.659 teaching we'll hear from eighth grade 0:01:19.110,0:01:23.610 teacher Tracey Warneke and we slice up a 0:01:21.659,0:01:26.820 few clips former students to sharing 0:01:23.610,0:01:29.549 their insights we hope you enjoy it is 0:01:26.820,0:01:33.030 my 21st year being a public head teacher 0:01:29.549,0:01:35.369 so it's the journey to get to this point 0:01:33.030,0:01:38.700 and it's a journey by making a thousand 0:01:35.369,0:01:40.770 mistakes first and just constantly 0:01:38.700,0:01:44.220 reflecting upon my practice and knowing 0:01:40.770,0:01:47.970 what I can do better the next day I have 0:01:44.220,0:01:51.420 no control over the kids reaction to me 0:01:47.970,0:01:53.850 I have control over me and my reaction 0:01:51.420,0:01:56.719 to them I have control over my 0:01:53.850,0:01:59.640 curriculum and how I present it to them 0:01:56.719,0:02:01.890 it's also through thousands of hours of 0:01:59.640,0:02:04.079 grad school and professional development 0:02:01.890,0:02:06.630 that I just take what I learn and I 0:02:04.079,0:02:09.780 apply it here in the classroom I play 0:02:06.630,0:02:11.560 some days it goes well some days it 0:02:09.780,0:02:15.160 completely bombs 0:02:11.560,0:02:16.750 I reflect on that I ask students for a 0:02:15.160,0:02:19.930 reflection what can we do to make it 0:02:16.750,0:02:22.030 better so with that what I've learned 0:02:19.930,0:02:24.510 over the years is behavior comes first 0:02:22.030,0:02:28.030 academics comes second and I think as 0:02:24.510,0:02:29.920 teachers we get that especially math 0:02:28.030,0:02:32.440 teachers where they have that crunch of 0:02:29.920,0:02:35.500 they have to cover certain chapters by 0:02:32.440,0:02:38.410 certain dates and you know you have to 0:02:35.500,0:02:40.930 reach certain goals in the curriculum by 0:02:38.410,0:02:45.519 a certain time we flip that in our head 0:02:40.930,0:02:48.010 and so I spend the first week of school 0:02:45.519,0:02:49.959 doing nothing but behavior teaching my 0:02:48.010,0:02:52.239 expectations teaching my classroom 0:02:49.959,0:02:54.670 routines teaching and building community 0:02:52.239,0:02:58.000 and I teach absolutely everything and 0:02:54.670,0:03:01.810 assume nothing so we agree every morning 0:02:58.000,0:03:02.310 and I teach them why and the purpose and 0:03:01.810,0:03:04.540 all of that 0:03:02.310,0:03:05.950 all right ladies during our greeting to 0:03:04.540,0:03:22.720 our mindfulness meditation get this day 0:03:05.950,0:03:25.450 started are you done 0:03:22.720,0:03:27.190 you are amazing human beings thank you 0:03:25.450,0:03:29.829 so very very much would you guys like a 0:03:27.190,0:03:33.150 piece of gum for helping me out or just 0:03:29.829,0:03:33.150 like a piece of candy for helping me out 0:03:39.720,0:03:45.700 one thing I live on was 20 live she's 0:03:42.579,0:03:49.150 very open about herself and like she's 0:03:45.700,0:03:52.030 like she is not afraid to tell people 0:03:49.150,0:03:53.020 who she is like she openly told us that 0:03:52.030,0:03:55.630 she was 0:03:53.020,0:03:58.180 okay and I actually really liked that 0:03:55.630,0:03:59.980 because when this morning he was telling 0:03:58.180,0:04:01.450 us all about her I got to know her 0:03:59.980,0:04:04.930 better and like know what kind to 0:04:01.450,0:04:07.810 specialize in she showed me that like I 0:04:04.930,0:04:10.660 shouldn't be afraid to like show who I 0:04:07.810,0:04:12.190 really am she's a really cool teacher 0:04:10.660,0:04:15.220 and I feel like I can just trust her 0:04:12.190,0:04:18.250 with anything like earlier today when I 0:04:15.220,0:04:19.959 was mad and I was I did not want to get 0:04:18.250,0:04:21.610 in trouble with my other teacher because 0:04:19.959,0:04:23.800 I did not want to do anything stupid I 0:04:21.610,0:04:25.810 just went to her classroom and she gave 0:04:23.800,0:04:29.100 me a piece of gum and let me draw in her 0:04:25.810,0:04:31.480 classroom calm down and it really helped 0:04:29.100,0:04:35.080 she's good in that way and she 0:04:31.480,0:04:37.240 understands us you know my name is Lily 0:04:35.080,0:04:40.030 I'm in this morning he's morning class 0:04:37.240,0:04:41.830 for homeroom class and I've just always 0:04:40.030,0:04:43.900 noticed since the beginning of the year 0:04:41.830,0:04:45.850 that she always tells her students that 0:04:43.900,0:04:48.280 they're smart and that they shouldn't 0:04:45.850,0:04:50.290 like cut corners and that they're better 0:04:48.280,0:04:52.300 than what they think that they are and 0:04:50.290,0:04:54.370 that they are smart and stuff like that 0:04:52.300,0:04:56.740 and I think it's really helped a lot of 0:04:54.370,0:04:58.510 the students in our class know that they 0:04:56.740,0:05:00.760 can trust her and I know that I can 0:04:58.510,0:05:04.360 trust her and I really enjoy being in 0:05:00.760,0:05:06.190 her classroom and I think I my ground 0:05:04.360,0:05:08.020 students in the purpose of why that we 0:05:06.190,0:05:09.280 do the things that we do and I really 0:05:08.020,0:05:09.970 establish by the fact that this is a 0:05:09.280,0:05:12.190 public school 0:05:09.970,0:05:14.740 we service the public that means 0:05:12.190,0:05:17.230 everybody from the public is here people 0:05:14.740,0:05:18.970 that we might not necessarily spend time 0:05:17.230,0:05:20.950 with in our normal everyday lives are 0:05:18.970,0:05:22.570 here in this classroom so I have the big 0:05:20.950,0:05:25.240 rule that we do not have to like each 0:05:22.570,0:05:26.310 other I have 26 kids in my morning 30 in 0:05:25.240,0:05:29.020 my afternoon block 0:05:26.310,0:05:31.210 we're not the expectation that we're all 0:05:29.020,0:05:33.100 going to be friends is ridiculous but we 0:05:31.210,0:05:35.020 will respect each other as colleagues 0:05:33.100,0:05:37.030 and then I spent a significant amount of 0:05:35.020,0:05:38.410 time talking about code-switching what's 0:05:37.030,0:05:40.450 the purpose of this class I was the 0:05:38.410,0:05:42.270 purpose of coming to school who are we 0:05:40.450,0:05:44.290 as a student who are we as a learner 0:05:42.270,0:05:46.600 were the difference between those two 0:05:44.290,0:05:48.280 things and why are we here who are we 0:05:46.600,0:05:50.410 going to be when we're in this room 0:05:48.280,0:05:51.160 because who we are in this room is not 0:05:50.410,0:05:55.410 who we are 0:05:51.160,0:05:57.760 hey buddy you tap out okay you all right 0:05:55.410,0:06:01.090 do you need to talk to me you just wanna 0:05:57.760,0:06:03.010 take a break okay who we are in this 0:06:01.090,0:06:04.300 room is not who we are would we're hold 0:06:03.010,0:06:06.110 their parents or hanging out or 0:06:04.300,0:06:08.480 grandparents or cousins or our 0:06:06.110,0:06:10.600 at the park so we do a lot of work on 0:06:08.480,0:06:15.470 identity in the beginning as 0:06:10.600,0:06:17.930 eighth-grade staff teaching American 0:06:15.470,0:06:19.790 history as our curriculum we kick it 0:06:17.930,0:06:20.480 also by diving into privilege and what 0:06:19.790,0:06:22.580 does that mean 0:06:20.480,0:06:25.040 and we put all the kids on a privilege 0:06:22.580,0:06:27.100 walk so the entire eighth grade in the 0:06:25.040,0:06:29.480 morning block and afternoon so it's half 0:06:27.100,0:06:30.890 hour standing on the blacktop and we do 0:06:29.480,0:06:32.450 a privilege walk we built to that we 0:06:30.890,0:06:34.970 don't just watch but by the third day of 0:06:32.450,0:06:38.030 school we did that activity you did a 0:06:34.970,0:06:39.380 privilege walk where we all lined up and 0:06:38.030,0:06:42.680 then took steps forwards or backwards 0:06:39.380,0:06:44.120 depending on if this applied to you to 0:06:42.680,0:06:47.750 show like the different versions of 0:06:44.120,0:06:50.900 privilege it was like have you ever 0:06:47.750,0:06:53.050 taken a family vacation and then people 0:06:50.900,0:06:56.090 who have done that took a step forward 0:06:53.050,0:06:59.810 do you feel like safe expressing 0:06:56.090,0:07:01.730 yourself in public like you do that and 0:06:59.810,0:07:05.420 then you could see where people say in 0:07:01.730,0:07:07.370 the line of the spectrum like with how 0:07:05.420,0:07:10.250 they feel and the privilege that they 0:07:07.370,0:07:12.230 have not because they earned it by just 0:07:10.250,0:07:15.620 like their race their gender their 0:07:12.230,0:07:18.440 sexual orientation stuff like that no 0:07:15.620,0:07:21.380 this was new to me and I think everybody 0:07:18.440,0:07:24.710 in there we weren't really used to like 0:07:21.380,0:07:28.460 talking about it like that it was but it 0:07:24.710,0:07:30.260 was good yeah we had like a whole unit 0:07:28.460,0:07:32.390 on privilege so for that we did a lot of 0:07:30.260,0:07:35.000 talking about privilege and the 0:07:32.390,0:07:39.200 different types of privilege so we made 0:07:35.000,0:07:44.270 posters there's gender there's racial 0:07:39.200,0:07:46.280 there's aesthetics social and it's 0:07:44.270,0:07:48.110 always such a great eye opener kind of 0:07:46.280,0:07:49.730 breaks down those barriers of assumption 0:07:48.110,0:07:53.750 that people make about one another based 0:07:49.730,0:07:54.980 off of skin tone or hair texture a lot 0:07:53.750,0:07:56.120 of times it's the kids who are in the 0:07:54.980,0:07:57.470 back that we don't expect 0:07:56.120,0:07:58.850 and it's the kids in the front who we 0:07:57.470,0:08:01.160 don't expect so it's a great way to 0:07:58.850,0:08:03.230 start that dialogue of diving into who 0:08:01.160,0:08:04.970 where we are as a community and really 0:08:03.230,0:08:08.170 working on that sense of identity of 0:08:04.970,0:08:10.340 ourselves in a classroom with that I 0:08:08.170,0:08:11.720 most of my anchor charts have had to 0:08:10.340,0:08:13.460 come down because we don't need them up 0:08:11.720,0:08:14.810 anymore but I really build a lot of 0:08:13.460,0:08:16.820 anchor charts that Bruce and our 0:08:14.810,0:08:19.919 behaviors ruin our routines reserve our 0:08:16.820,0:08:22.860 expectations through all of that work 0:08:19.919,0:08:24.900 and listening because I run my classroom 0:08:22.860,0:08:27.960 on a circle was it sort of like a 0:08:24.900,0:08:29.849 lopsided circle but in the first week we 0:08:27.960,0:08:31.830 actually had tables against walls and a 0:08:29.849,0:08:33.180 circle where everything was kind of it 0:08:31.830,0:08:35.820 you know like a restorative such a 0:08:33.180,0:08:38.399 circle the kids to start to share you 0:08:35.820,0:08:40.229 just start to pay attention and you just 0:08:38.399,0:08:41.430 start to just ask you know you just get 0:08:40.229,0:08:43.440 to know you know you just start to 0:08:41.430,0:08:45.750 listen to who are your kids and how do 0:08:43.440,0:08:47.220 they react I greet my kids every morning 0:08:45.750,0:08:49.380 I mean I might not always be at the door 0:08:47.220,0:08:50.670 but if I mean here we're like good 0:08:49.380,0:08:52.529 morning good morning good morning how we 0:08:50.670,0:08:54.029 doin you read their body language I mean 0:08:52.529,0:08:55.589 the great thing about middle schoolers 0:08:54.029,0:08:56.160 is they wear their emotions on their 0:08:55.589,0:08:58.320 sleeves 0:08:56.160,0:09:00.690 they're full of hyperbole and they're 0:08:58.320,0:09:02.670 they just want to be said but like all 0:09:00.690,0:09:05.220 kids they want the structure they want 0:09:02.670,0:09:06.690 to know what they're supposed to do and 0:09:05.220,0:09:08.250 how they're supposed to do I think 0:09:06.690,0:09:10.740 that's just people I think people like 0:09:08.250,0:09:13.490 structure and so I do that I'm very very 0:09:10.740,0:09:19.019 clear on my expectations and I I 0:09:13.490,0:09:20.550 remember two of my morning students came 0:09:19.019,0:09:21.810 to me the first week of school said this 0:09:20.550,0:09:23.820 Marty you're a really really good 0:09:21.810,0:09:26.339 teacher thanks guys I really appreciate 0:09:23.820,0:09:28.260 that and kind of blew it off like no you 0:09:26.339,0:09:30.390 get kids who are normally pushed out of 0:09:28.260,0:09:34.589 the classroom and you keep them in the 0:09:30.390,0:09:37.380 room and I think that's the key is kids 0:09:34.589,0:09:38.670 blip in a classroom for a reason they're 0:09:37.380,0:09:40.680 not you know there's no such thing as a 0:09:38.670,0:09:42.959 bad kid there are kids who make bad 0:09:40.680,0:09:45.300 choices there are kids in bad situations 0:09:42.959,0:09:48.839 but there's no such thing as a bad kid 0:09:45.300,0:09:51.420 so community and I stress with both of 0:09:48.839,0:09:52.800 my classes that we are a community and 0:09:51.420,0:09:54.420 when the community is not doing well 0:09:52.800,0:09:56.339 when certain individuals are not doing 0:09:54.420,0:09:59.100 well in the community we're all in it 0:09:56.339,0:10:00.930 together I also start the year off by 0:09:59.100,0:10:02.820 telling them that I'm the dictator I'm a 0:10:00.930,0:10:05.850 nice dictator I'm a compassionate 0:10:02.820,0:10:07.800 dictator I will listen to you dictator 0:10:05.850,0:10:09.149 but the end of the day I'm the teacher 0:10:07.800,0:10:10.769 you're the student you have to do what I 0:10:09.149,0:10:13.560 say because I'm the teacher a student 0:10:10.769,0:10:17.010 that's why power works which fits really 0:10:13.560,0:10:18.779 nicely into privilege um I go I hate my 0:10:17.010,0:10:20.910 dictators mr. Droog ah I have to tell it 0:10:18.779,0:10:22.980 you know I listen to what he tells me 0:10:20.910,0:10:24.930 right I can't say no and blow him off 0:10:22.980,0:10:27.300 he's my principal I have to do what he 0:10:24.930,0:10:29.490 tells me to do but he's a nice dictator 0:10:27.300,0:10:30.390 right I'm a nice tech Tator but the end 0:10:29.490,0:10:32.130 of the day and there's 0:10:30.390,0:10:35.490 times I look at they can be like 0:10:32.130,0:10:37.350 teacher-student all right you know but 0:10:35.490,0:10:38.940 again they just want to know like they 0:10:37.350,0:10:40.260 wouldn't know their limits you want to 0:10:38.940,0:10:42.780 know what they can and cannot do and 0:10:40.260,0:10:44.550 then once I get all that established 0:10:42.780,0:10:46.710 then when it comes to work 0:10:44.550,0:10:48.180 it's the gradual release lots of things 0:10:46.710,0:10:50.790 that districts are teaching us it's the 0:10:48.180,0:10:52.470 you know model first you know show them 0:10:50.790,0:10:55.020 what you're supposed to do do it whole 0:10:52.470,0:10:56.490 group do it together do it in small 0:10:55.020,0:10:58.640 group and then kind of look like that 0:10:56.490,0:11:03.030 all those PD's that we're getting from 0:10:58.640,0:11:04.590 our experts downtown it's just going to 0:11:03.030,0:11:06.900 be really really mindful in it just 0:11:04.590,0:11:09.570 takes a lot of time just one step at a 0:11:06.900,0:11:11.310 time and just slowly but surely by 0:11:09.570,0:11:12.780 fourth quarter I don't need a model how 0:11:11.310,0:11:14.370 to put your assignments in the area when 0:11:12.780,0:11:16.110 you know how to do that but everyday 0:11:14.370,0:11:17.930 right now it's everybody do is it 0:11:16.110,0:11:20.310 together cuz we're not quite ready I 0:11:17.930,0:11:21.930 also feel really sweet group of kids 0:11:20.310,0:11:24.420 this year and they help each other which 0:11:21.930,0:11:26.670 is awesome it is not easy to be a warm 0:11:24.420,0:11:29.790 demander it is not easy to put on that 0:11:26.670,0:11:31.200 academic press because that's constantly 0:11:29.790,0:11:33.540 something that you're juggling that line 0:11:31.200,0:11:35.490 in that line is not always clear and so 0:11:33.540,0:11:37.800 it's never good to make assumptions 0:11:35.490,0:11:41.160 about that line so it's really important 0:11:37.800,0:11:42.930 to get to know who your kids are and by 0:11:41.160,0:11:44.640 shutting up and listening I think that's 0:11:42.930,0:11:46.440 the key is finding the gifts that they 0:11:44.640,0:11:50.850 bring to the classroom finding the good 0:11:46.440,0:11:53.160 in all kids and recognizing that the 0:11:50.850,0:11:56.760 front that they give you is not who they 0:11:53.160,0:12:00.630 are middle schoolers do not like to be 0:11:56.760,0:12:02.490 uncomfortable and so if the learning pit 0:12:00.630,0:12:05.130 right the falling into that pit that's 0:12:02.490,0:12:06.840 savoring the struggle where they want to 0:12:05.130,0:12:08.280 mislead you they start talking we'll put 0:12:06.840,0:12:09.660 a boop boop boop and they were like get 0:12:08.280,0:12:12.480 the answers from their friends or they 0:12:09.660,0:12:13.890 want me so badly to define exactly what 0:12:12.480,0:12:15.960 they should be doing or they will 0:12:13.890,0:12:17.190 exactly want me to give them the answers 0:12:15.960,0:12:19.440 that they're supposed to write down on 0:12:17.190,0:12:21.180 their paper so the to be a slave ABC 0:12:19.440,0:12:23.100 book right every kid picks a random 0:12:21.180,0:12:24.690 letter they to take that letter and 0:12:23.100,0:12:28.740 connect it to a concept they learned in 0:12:24.690,0:12:31.710 slavery so like S is for slavery W is 0:12:28.740,0:12:34.710 for whippings J is for jumping the broom 0:12:31.710,0:12:36.930 you know whatever that concept that 0:12:34.710,0:12:38.820 resonated with them and then they have 0:12:36.930,0:12:41.040 to do a Melancon paragraph so they have 0:12:38.820,0:12:42.300 to you know find textual evidence they 0:12:41.040,0:12:45.330 have to 0:12:42.300,0:12:50.160 I do the content at least sexual others 0:12:45.330,0:12:51.930 provide the link that's hard that's some 0:12:50.160,0:12:54.450 seriously high level writing and 0:12:51.930,0:12:57.270 thinking about a really difficult topic 0:12:54.450,0:12:58.950 and so when we first wrote you know I we 0:12:57.270,0:13:01.140 of course we model we do things together 0:12:58.950,0:13:02.610 we do things in small group we talk 0:13:01.140,0:13:03.690 about it we have lots of discussions but 0:13:02.610,0:13:05.100 when it comes to the rubber hand the 0:13:03.690,0:13:08.820 room where they they're like I have my 0:13:05.100,0:13:10.230 my my graphic organizer and my notes and 0:13:08.820,0:13:14.550 this book and I gotta put it all 0:13:10.230,0:13:16.890 together now they all blow just like and 0:13:14.550,0:13:18.450 so it's just constantly just a lot of 0:13:16.890,0:13:22.350 reassurance for that it's like you've 0:13:18.450,0:13:24.750 got this you have this the expectation 0:13:22.350,0:13:26.370 still is no talking I want your brain 0:13:24.750,0:13:30.090 not your brain in your neighbors brain 0:13:26.370,0:13:33.390 what do you know and they just sir just 0:13:30.090,0:13:36.900 allowing them to be uncomfortable and 0:13:33.390,0:13:38.490 not to save them from their internal 0:13:36.900,0:13:40.470 insecurities or there and there is 0:13:38.490,0:13:42.090 especially this happens a lot with my 0:13:40.470,0:13:43.950 high-flyer learners right that a lot of 0:13:42.090,0:13:46.710 my perfectionist want to be put in the 0:13:43.950,0:13:50.070 box and well how many pages does it need 0:13:46.710,0:13:52.050 to be it doesn't and they're like what 0:13:50.070,0:13:54.720 I'm like you have to have all of the 0:13:52.050,0:13:57.750 skills or that I'm asking you to 0:13:54.720,0:13:59.580 demonstrate but you can demonstrate that 0:13:57.750,0:14:03.180 in a page maybe it takes you five pages 0:13:59.580,0:14:06.780 demonstrate that I don't know so I push 0:14:03.180,0:14:08.250 them out so my rubrics and my assignment 0:14:06.780,0:14:09.480 description if it's not on those two 0:14:08.250,0:14:12.030 things you have carte blanche to do 0:14:09.480,0:14:13.230 whatever you want so that's that's 0:14:12.030,0:14:15.330 always going to start to see them 0:14:13.230,0:14:20.270 grapple with that but I think the big 0:14:15.330,0:14:20.270 also heated ideas I do a lot of student 0:14:21.200,0:14:28.140 interesting curriculum like I connect 0:14:25.020,0:14:30.930 history to current events so when we 0:14:28.140,0:14:32.290 were studying a lot about slavery miss 0:14:30.930,0:14:36.129 Warneke showed us a video 0:14:32.290,0:14:38.649 of Beyonce I think it was her recent 0:14:36.129,0:14:40.509 like showing it the award show I don't 0:14:38.649,0:14:42.910 remember which one it was but it was 0:14:40.509,0:14:43.929 really awesome because it showed exactly 0:14:42.910,0:14:46.600 what we were learning about in class 0:14:43.929,0:14:47.739 like how we represented slavery and it 0:14:46.600,0:14:49.959 was really interesting to see how she 0:14:47.739,0:14:53.169 brought that into the classroom first 0:14:49.959,0:14:54.789 for ela they get to choose what they 0:14:53.169,0:14:57.129 read they get to choose what they write 0:14:54.789,0:15:03.279 about as long as it fits under my 0:14:57.129,0:15:06.519 umbrella of standards they get to do it 0:15:03.279,0:15:08.049 so I believe a big big thing about 0:15:06.519,0:15:09.519 student choice over the narrative 0:15:08.049,0:15:12.609 writing project they could choose to 0:15:09.519,0:15:14.079 write a traditional short story they 0:15:12.609,0:15:17.829 could have chosen to write a humans of 0:15:14.079,0:15:19.779 New York or peoples of Madison blog or 0:15:17.829,0:15:21.789 they could have chosen to write this I 0:15:19.779,0:15:22.929 believe and we laid it all out over the 0:15:21.789,0:15:24.609 different choices and what those three 0:15:22.929,0:15:26.049 different choices would mean and then I 0:15:24.609,0:15:27.910 got to see all the expectations 0:15:26.049,0:15:30.759 everybody has the same running target 0:15:27.910,0:15:31.869 areas the same rubric but just you know 0:15:30.759,0:15:33.999 what do you want to write an imaginary 0:15:31.869,0:15:37.689 story a memoir or something about a 0:15:33.999,0:15:39.009 lesson of values that you have most of 0:15:37.689,0:15:40.600 them choice is a short story which is 0:15:39.009,0:15:42.489 always interesting because my humans of 0:15:40.600,0:15:44.019 Madison kids are like this is so easy I 0:15:42.489,0:15:46.419 don't have to make anything up it's all 0:15:44.019,0:15:48.279 in my head I'm like that's what I think 0:15:46.419,0:15:50.919 but you know some kids want to take on 0:15:48.279,0:15:52.929 the challenge and so that having that 0:15:50.919,0:15:55.989 power of choice and knowing that I have 0:15:52.929,0:15:59.230 a voice and what I get to do it makes 0:15:55.989,0:16:01.600 the engagement so much higher make 0:15:59.230,0:16:03.910 sagacious and then if they are blipping 0:16:01.600,0:16:05.470 well why are they blipping and it's 0:16:03.910,0:16:07.329 flipping because either can't be it you 0:16:05.470,0:16:08.199 know competent or autonomous or have 0:16:07.329,0:16:09.579 really they don't have a relationship 0:16:08.199,0:16:11.679 with me where they're not having any fun 0:16:09.579,0:16:12.819 and as much as I try to make learning 0:16:11.679,0:16:14.079 fun in here there are certain days where 0:16:12.819,0:16:15.939 like guys this is one of those days 0:16:14.079,0:16:17.980 where we just have to learn it's not 0:16:15.939,0:16:19.389 gonna be great but there's gonna be lots 0:16:17.980,0:16:21.309 of things in your life that you have to 0:16:19.389,0:16:25.480 sit through that are not great and this 0:16:21.309,0:16:27.789 is not a rarity for us and I think it's 0:16:25.480,0:16:33.059 I've gotten the feedback from kids that 0:16:27.789,0:16:35.319 they enjoy the topics that we do and 0:16:33.059,0:16:36.850 bringing it like they enjoyed they found 0:16:35.319,0:16:38.289 the privilege work really interesting 0:16:36.850,0:16:41.259 they're ready to be done with slavery 0:16:38.289,0:16:43.480 and I don't blame them it's hard I mean 0:16:41.259,0:16:44.600 I it's raw we read the to be a slave for 0:16:43.480,0:16:47.000 the slave narratives we watched 0:16:44.600,0:16:49.850 Unchained memories it's hard stuff to 0:16:47.000,0:16:53.209 hear and that and we do the same thing 0:16:49.850,0:16:54.800 with Columbus and Zen they get there 0:16:53.209,0:16:57.649 like man america's got a lot of bad 0:16:54.800,0:16:59.990 stuff it's like yeah well how did we get 0:16:57.649,0:17:01.819 here like because they are they're 0:16:59.990,0:17:03.170 opening to the world they're going out 0:17:01.819,0:17:04.640 in the world they have these phones 0:17:03.170,0:17:07.760 where they're getting this sound bytes 0:17:04.640,0:17:08.689 and these little pictures and means that 0:17:07.760,0:17:10.010 you know if you don't have the 0:17:08.689,0:17:12.770 background knowledge you're not going to 0:17:10.010,0:17:15.500 understand let me teach you what that 0:17:12.770,0:17:18.709 means let me teach you why that's 0:17:15.500,0:17:20.270 important let me teach you about our 0:17:18.709,0:17:21.919 government and how it's supposed to 0:17:20.270,0:17:24.559 function so you can be an informed voter 0:17:21.919,0:17:26.270 when you're 18 or you can understand 0:17:24.559,0:17:28.490 then you can make choices that will 0:17:26.270,0:17:30.320 benefit our country because you I don't 0:17:28.490,0:17:32.030 want you to be an ignorant voter I want 0:17:30.320,0:17:33.919 you to understand how our government 0:17:32.030,0:17:36.490 works so that when you can have that 0:17:33.919,0:17:39.530 opportunity you can do that so a lot of 0:17:36.490,0:17:42.470 relating the purpose of why and bring in 0:17:39.530,0:17:44.360 making it personal for that but really 0:17:42.470,0:17:47.929 enhances the curriculum and then they're 0:17:44.360,0:17:49.429 more likely to do the work right that

This week’s episode of “WisBusiness: The Podcast” features Jonathan Wiggins, president and CEO of Madison-based sports startup called myAgame. He’s developing an “interactive playbook” for use by football teams and their coaches, with a second round of beta testing to begin in the fall. “We’re going to have a few teams utilizing our software. My goal is to have 30 teams total -- 20 youth, 10 high schools -- across the state,” he said. “I just want to build on the success we had last year with Memorial High School’s program.” The school’s football team hadn’t won a game in four years, and hadn’t won more than one game per season in nine years. After implementing the myAgame system, “they were eight seconds away from making the playoffs for the first time since 2000 -- so that’s huge.” Coaches send their playbook into the company to be digitized, so that player-specific assignments can be sent out the night before a game. Players can sign into the platform from any internet portal, practice their assigned plays, and get scores based on how well they do. The platform incorporates gamification to make studying plays and learning the game of football more fun. Players are ranked based on their performance in the system, which also includes a messaging section for competitive banter.
