Welcome to the latest episode of the WAB Podcast! In this episode, we are joined by Marina Frias Gavidia, our Middle School Principal, and Dr. Jaime Pustis, High School Principal, along with two students, Thomas from Grade 6 and Simo from Grade 12. They discussed WAB's Day 9, a program designed to promote student agency, personalized learning, and flexibility. From student-led workshops and community engagement projects to academic support and well-being sessions, they explored how Day 9 is designed and what it can offer, allowing students to explore their passions, develop leadership skills, and take ownership of their learning.  Marina explained that Day 9 was introduced to give students more control over their learning. By building flexibility into the schedule, this could allow students to explore their passions and interests.   For High School students, Day 9 offers opportunities to deepen their studies, especially in Higher Level (HL) courses for the IB Diploma Program. Jaime also highlighted how the program prepares students for life beyond WAB, helping them develop time management and decision-making skills. "whether that is a study block, whether that is a well-being session, it (Day 9) provides the opportunity for them to really do some deep thinking about what is it that they actually need," said Jaime.   Grade 6 student Thomas, new to the Day 9 program, enjoyed activities like Capture the Flag and Chinese history workshops. He also sees Day 9 as a great opportunity to catch up on his learning. For example, during a recent Day 9, he used the time to work on his project for design.  Simo, a Grade 12 student, has participated in many Day 9s over the years. From selecting quiet reading time to leading student initiatives, he has learned to use Day 9 more effectively. He highlighted its flexibility and benefits, emphasizing how it caters to individual student needs and helps develop time management skills. As he progressed to high school, Day 9 became a valuable time for meeting with teachers and advancing his studies in the Higher-Level subjects he chose.  To hear more about Day 9 and its impact on our students, tune in to the full episode of the WAB Podcast!

Welcome to the eleventh episode of Season 5 of the WAB podcast. In this episode. We're joined by Marina Frias-Gavidia, the Middle School Principal and Spanish teacher, Moana Teriitehau, the French language acquisition teacher, and three students: Dominic, Kenzie, and Zoe from Grade 8. Together, they explored the After School Language (ALP) Program, discussing its benefits, learning approaches, and how it supports multilingualism, cultural understanding, and diversity at WAB.  Marina highlighted our diverse community values multilingualism and ALP provides students the opportunity to learn Chinese, Spanish, or French after regular school hours. Moana added that the ALP content mirrors the daytime language classes, offering two hours on Mondays and lunchtime sessions on Thursdays.  Three enthusiastic ALP students also shared their experiences. Grade 8 student Dominic is taking French ALP and also learns Chinese during the day. He explained his motivation that since he is moving to Canada next year, where French is widely spoken, he hopes ALP can help him stay ahead in his French studies.   His peer Zoe takes ALP Spanish and learns Chinese during the day. She shared her reason for committing to the additional language learning, was to help prepare herself for the future, as she believes speaking three languages is a great advantage.   As someone new to ALP Spanish, Kenzie mentioned she is really enjoying the course. She shared her previous experience of studying Spanish in Elementary School before she came to WAB. After taking a break for two years, she is now happy that she can pick it up again in Grade 8 this year.   Marina highlighted the program's unique approach by leveraging translanguaging and recognizing students' home languages and cultures. Moana provided an example in his recent class, where a student from Korea compared French speech formalities to her home culture, demonstrating how students' home languages can facilitate their language learning.   Marina concluded by emphasizing the broader benefits of ALP, as learning multiple languages can help our students connect with more people, understand diverse cultures, and develop crucial skills like discipline and perseverance.   As the conversation wrapped up, the students offered advice to potential ALP participants by emphasizing the time commitment and the importance of attending each class. If you want to learn more about our students' language learning exploration, please tune in to this episode.

In this episode, Harvey Hazen and I discuss the idea of looking beneath the surface of students' behaviors to see the whole child. Our discussion emphasizes the importance of teaching the child rather than the curriculum, and the vital role teachers and parents play in creating an environment where teens and young adults can be their authentic selves. Join us as we uncover the following key takeaways: 1: Empathetic Teaching explores the power of empathy in education. Learn how understanding the unique needs, experiences, and challenges of each student can transform teaching from a one-size-fits-all approach to a personalized, holistic journey. 2: Nurturing Authenticity: Discover strategies for fostering an environment where teens and young adults feel safe and encouraged to express their true selves. We discuss the long-term benefits of promoting self-discovery, individuality, and self-confidence. 3: Beyond the Curriculum: Shift your perspective from focusing solely on academic achievements to nurturing well-rounded, emotionally intelligent individuals. Uncover the ways in which this approach not only enhances students' academic success but also equips them for a fulfilling life beyond the classroom. About Harvey:  I retired several years ago after 37 years in public education. During that time I taught history, was a Counselor, a High School and Middle School Principal and a Superintendent. At the same time my Wife was a Special Education Teacher. On the home front we raised two sons who were 8 years apart. One had diabetes from age 3 and the other was ADD. Both presented unique challenges. My degrees are BS in History/Education and MS in Educational Counseling. I also completed certification programs in Educational Administration.
