On this episode, we'll talk with David Yancey. David shares how he changed majors 5 different times before graduating from the University of Georgia as a 6th-year senior with majors in Human Geography and Middle Grades Education as well as a minor in Anthropology. After running away from the career he should have been pursuing from the start, David finally listened to his heart and became a middle school social studies teacher. He shares how a visionary mentor helped him become visionary in his approach to teaching. One of his teaching methods is creating lesson reviews as raps. A video of him reciting a lesson in class actually went viral and landed him interviews on Complex News, CNBC, and WSBTV among other news outlets. Of course, we had to get him to give us a little demo, so tune in to hear it! Connect with David! Twitter: @teachallya Instagram: @teachallya ----- Stay connected with Journey to Jupiter!

On November 20th, 17th I had the chance to go and interview my former teacher and mentor Melba Pattillo Beals. Melba was my radio teacher at Dominican University of California, she was also Communications Department chair, and this interview features conversation about history, parenting, and loving yourself and others around you. Melba was one of the Little Rock 9 who integrated Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas. As one of my 8th grade students pointed out, she is in our history books, but to me, she was a teacher and mentor for my first year and a half of college. In a year and a half at San Rafael, I was fortunate enough to gain a wider lens to focus my own perspective. I was taken back mentally to the college classroom above the library where we met twice a week. I hope you enjoy this conversation nearly as much as I did. It was really nice to sit and discuss philosophy and outlook on life with Melba. Melba inspired me to take a challenging road once and a while, and value myself along the road of life, even when you can't see what's coming around the corner. There were a lot of takeaway quotes from Melba, and I decided to highlight a few of the most motivating quotes with on screen caption. This interview is a touching part of my past and my future simultaneously. I think we all can gain some insights and perspective from Melba's wisdom. We discuss education, faith, and potential, among many other topics. Not just a conversation about Central High School in Little Rock, we discuss a wide range of topics and I found it both informative and entertaining. To me, Its a cross section of American history and humanity. It was a pleasure to get to spend so much time discussing the uplifting side of the human spirit.

Hey teachers everywhere! Mr. Hauger here with a great idea for classroom interactions with your students. Print and cut a list of your favorite journal or speech prompts and put them into a glass jar, or any container you have in the room. Choose a student at random, or take volunteers and have them draw a topic and speak for one minute. If the class appreciates the speech, they snap, and if the majority of students snap, the speaker has been successful. You can modify this public speech activity in many ways, but its a winner in my classroom, and I thought you might appreciate the idea!   Thanks for listening and subscribing!
