Mike Steele, Pacing Discourse-Rich Lessons ROUNDING UP: SEASON 4 | EPISODE 13 As a classroom teacher, pacing lessons was often my Achilles' heel. If my students were sharing their thinking or working on a task, I sometimes struggled to decide when to move on to the next phase of a lesson.  Today we're talking with Mike Steele from Ball State University about several high-leverage practices that educators can use to plan and pace their lessons.  BIOGRAPHY Mike Steele is a math education researcher focused on teacher knowledge and teacher learning. He is the past president of the Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators, editor in chief of the Mathematics Teacher Educator journal, and member of the NCTM board of directors.  RESOURCES Journal Article "Pacing a Discourse-Rich Lesson: When to Move On" Books 5 Practices for Orchestrating Productive Mathematics Discussions  The 5 Practices in Practice [Elementary]  The 5 Practices in Practice [Middle School]  The 5 Practices in Practice [High School] Coaching the 5 Practices  TRANSCRIPT Mike Wallus: Well, hi, Mike. Welcome to the podcast. I'm excited to talk with you about discourse-rich lessons and what it looks like to pace them. Mike Steele: Well, I'm excited to talk with you too about this, Mike. This has been a real focus and interest, and I'm so excited that this article grabbed your attention. Mike Wallus: I suppose the first question I should ask for the audience is: What do you mean when you're talking about a discourse-rich lesson? What does that term mean about the lesson and perhaps also about the role of the teacher? Mike Steele: Yeah, I think that's a great question to start with. So when we're talking about a discourse-rich lesson, we're talking about one that has some mathematics that's worth talking about in it. So opportunities for thinking, reasoning, problem solving, in-progress thinking that leads to new mathematical understandings. And that kind of implicit in that discourse-rich lesson is student discourse-rich lesson. That we want not just teachers talking about sharing their own thinking about the mathematics, but opportunities for students to share their own thinking, to shape that thinking, to talk with each other, to see each other as intellectual resources in mathematics.  And so to have a lesson like that, you've got to have a number of things in place. You've got to have a mathematical task that's worth talking about. So something that's not just a calculation and we end up at an answer and that the discourse isn't just, "Let me relay to you as a student the steps I took to do this." Because a lot of times when students are just starting to experience discourse-rich lessons, that's kind of mode one that they engage in is, "Let me recite for you the things that I did." But really opportunities to go beyond that and get into the reasoning and the why of the mathematics. And hopefully to explore some approaches or perspectives or representations that they may not have defaulted to in their first run-through or their first experience digging into a mathematical task.  So the task has to have those opportunities and then we have to create learning environments that really foster those opportunities and students as the creators of mathematics and the teacher as the person who's shaping and guiding that discussion in a mathematically productive way. Mike Wallus: One of the things that struck me is there is likely a problem of practice that you're trying to solve in publishing this article, and I wonder if we could pull the curtain back and have you talk a bit about what was the genesis of this article for you? Mike Steele: Absolutely. So let me take us back about 20 or 25 years, and I'll take you back to some early work that went on around these sorts of rich tasks and discourse-rich lessons. So a lot of this legacy comes out of research or a project in the late nineties called the Quasar Project that helped identify: What is a rich task? What is a task, as the researchers described it, of high cognitive demand that has those opportunities for thinking and reasoning? The next question that that line of research brought forward is, "OK, so we know what a task looks like that gives these opportunities. How does this change what teachers do in the classroom? How they plan for lessons, how they make those moment-to-moment decisions as they're engaged in the teaching of that lesson?" Because it's very different than actually when I started teaching middle school in the nineties, where my preparation was: I looked at the content I had for that day, I wrote three example problems I wanted to write on the board that I very carefully got all the steps right and put those up and explained them and answered some questions. "Alright, everybody understand that? OK, great, moving on." And then the students went and reproduced that. That's fine for some procedural things, but if I really wanted them to engage in thinking and reasoning, I had to start changing my whole practice.  So this bubbles up out of the original work of the 5 Practices for Orchestrating Productive Discussions [book] from Peg Smith and Mary Kay Stein. I had the opportunity actually to work with them both in the early two thousands at the University of Pittsburgh. And so as we were working on this five-practices framework that was supposed to help teachers think about, "What does a different conceptualization of planning and teaching look like that really gets us to this discourse-rich classroom environment where students are making sense of and grappling with mathematics and talking to each other in a meaningful way about it?" We worked with teachers around that and the five-practices [framework] is certainly helpful, but then as teachers were working with the five practices and they were anticipating student thinking, they were writing questions that assess and advance student thinking, some of the things that came up were, "OK, what are the moment-to-moment decisions and challenges related to that as we start planning and teaching in this way?"  And a number of common challenges came up. A lot of times when we were using a five-practice lesson, we were doing kind of a launch, explore, share, and discuss sort of format where we've got the teacher who's getting us started on a task, but we're not giving the farm away on that task. We're not saying too much and guiding their thinking. And then we let students have some time individually and in small groups to start messing around with the mathematics, working, talking. And then at some point we're going to call everybody together and we're going to share what the different ways of thinking were. We're going to try to draw that together. Peg Smith likes to talk about this as being more than a show-and-tell. So it's not just, "We stand up, we give our answer, we do that. Great." Next group, doing the same thing, and oftentimes they start to look alike. But there's some really meaningful thinking that goes on in that whole-class discussion. So one of the really pragmatic concerns here is, "How do I know when to move?" So I've got students working individually, and maybe I gave them 3 minutes to get started. Was that enough? What can I see in the work they're doing? What questions am I going to hear to tell me, "OK, now it's a good moment to move to small groups." And then similarly, when you've got small groups working, they're cranking away on a task. There might be multiple subquestions in that task. What's my cue that we're ready to go on to that whole-class discussion?  We were in so many classrooms where teachers were really working hard to do this work, and this happens to me all the time. I have somehow miscalculated what students are going to be able to do—either how quickly they're going to be able to do it, or I expected them to draw on this piece of prior knowledge and it took us a while to get there, or they've flown through something that I didn't expect them to fly through. So I'm having to make some choice in a moment, saying, "This isn't exactly how I imagined it, so what do I do here?" And frequently with teachers that get caught in that dilemma, the first response is to take control back, [to] say, "OK, you're all struggling with this. Let's come back together and let me show you what you should have figured out here." And it's done with the best of intentions. We need to get some closure on the mathematical ideas. But then it takes us right away from what we were trying to do, which was have our students grapple with the mathematics. And so we do this lovely polished job of putting that together and maybe students took the important things away from that, that they wanted to, maybe they didn't, but they didn't get all the way they were on their own. So that's really the problem of practice that this helps us to solve is, when we get in those positions of, "OK, I've got to make a call. I've got this much time left. I've got this sort of work that I see going on in the classroom. Am I ready? What can I do next?" That really keeps that ownership of the mathematics with our students but still gives me some ability to orchestrate, to shape that discussion in a way that's mathematically meaningful and that gets at the goals I had for the lesson. Mike Wallus: Yeah, I appreciated that part of the article and even just hearing you describe that so much, Mike, because you gave words to I think what sat behind the dilemma that I found myself in so often, which was: I was either trying to gauge whether there was enough—and I think the challenge is we're going to get into, what "enough" actually might mean—but given enough time, whether I was confident that there was understanding, how much understanding was necessary. And what that translates into is a lack of clarity around "How do I use my time? How do I gauge when it's worth expending some of the time that I maybe hadn't thought about and when it's worth recognizing that perhaps I didn't need all of that and I'm ready to do something?" So I think the next question probably should be: Let's talk about "enough." When you talk about knowing if you have enough, say a little bit more about what you mean and perhaps what a teacher might be looking and listening for. Mike Steele: Absolutely. And I think this is a hidden thread in that five-practices model because we say: "OK, we want that whole-class discussion to still be a site for learning where there are some new ideas that are coming together." So that then backs me up to thinking about the small-group work. I'm putting myself in that mode where I've got six groups working around the classroom. I'm circulating around; I'm asking questions. I of course don't see every single thing at any given moment that the small groups are doing. So I'm getting these little excerpts, these little 2- to 3-minute excerpts, when you stop into a group. So I think when we think about "enough," I want to think about, with that task that I'm doing, with what my mathematical goals are and knowing that we're going to have time on the backend of this whole-class discussion to pull some ideas together, to sharpen some things to clarify some of the mathematics. Do I have enough mathematical grist for the mill here in what the small groups are doing to be able to then take that and make progress with students' thinking at the center—again, not taking over the thinking myself—to be able to do that work. So, for any given mathematical idea, as I've started thinking about this when I plan lessons using the five-practices model, I am really taking that apart. What's the mathematical nugget that I'm listening for here, that I'm looking for in students' work that tells me: "OK, we've gotten to a point where, if I were to call people together right now and get them thinking about it, that there's more to think about, but we're well on our way." And also when I'm looking for that, knowing that I'm also not looking at those six groups all at exactly the same time. So, I want to look for those mile markers along the way that tell me we're getting close, but we're not all the way there. Because if I pick one that's, we're pretty much all the way there, that's the first group I come to and I'm going to circulate around to five more. They're going to have run out of interesting things to do, and they're off talking about, thinking about something else.  So, that really becomes the fine line: "What are those little mathematical ideas along the way that are far enough that get us towards our goals, but still we've got a little bit of the journey to go that we're going to go on together?" Mike Wallus: This is so fascinating. The analogy that's coming together in my mind is almost like you're listening for the ingredients for a conversation that you want to have as a group. So it's not necessarily "Has everyone finished?" And that's your threshold. It's actually "Did I hear this idea starting to bubble up? Did I hear elements of this idea or this strategy start to bubble up? Is there an insight that's percolating in different groups?" And it's the combination of those things that the teacher is listening for, and that's kind of the gauge of enoughness. Is that an accurate analogy? Mike Steele: It is, and I love that analogy because it reminds me of a favorite in our household as we're relaxing. We love to watch The Great British Baking Show. So, you're watching people take something from ingredients to a finished product. Now as you're watching that 20-minute segment, they're working on their technical challenge and they're all baking the same thing. I don't have to wait until the end of that, where they've presented their finished product, to have a good idea of what's going to happen. As I'm going through, as I'm watching 'em through that baking process, we're at the middle, my wife and I are talking, like, "Ooh, I've got concerns about that one. That one's looking good though." We get an idea of where it's going. So I think the ingredient analogy really lands with me. We don't have to wait. We're looking for those pieces to be able to pull that together, those ingredients. We're not waiting until there's a final product and saying—because then, what is there to say about it? "Oh, look, that looks great. Oh, that one, maybe not exactly what we'd intended." So, it's giving us those ingredients for that whole-class discussion. Mike Wallus: The other thing that struck me as I was listening to you is: We're not teaching a task; we're teaching a set of ideas or relationships. The task is the vehicle. So, it's perfectly reasonable, it seems, to say, "We're going to pause at this point in the task, or at a place where students might not be entirely finished with the task. And we might have a conversation at that point because we have enough that we can have part of the conversation." And that doesn't mean that they don't go back to the task. But you're really helping me recognize that one of the places where I sometimes get stuck, or got stuck, when I was teaching, is task completion was part of my time marking. And I think really what you're challenging me and other educators to do is to say, "The task is just the vehicle. What's going on? What's percolating around that task as it's happening?" How does that strike you? Mike Steele: Yeah, absolutely. And it was the same challenge with me and sometimes still is the same challenge with me. (laughs) Yeah, you give this task, and we think about that task as our unit of analysis as a teacher when we're planning. And so we want our students as we're using it to get to the end of it. It's a very natural thing to do.  And let me make this really concrete. If I'm doing a visual pattern task with third graders, we have, I think there's one of the elementary [5 Practices in Practice] book called "Tables & Chairs." So you've got these square tables that have four seats around them, and you're putting a string of tables together and asking kids to get at the generalization. "If you have any number of tables, how many people can you seat?"  And so I think early when I started giving those tasks, I was looking for, "OK, has everybody gotten to the rule? Have they gotten to that generalization? OK, now we can talk about it." And we can talk about the different ways people made sense of that geometrically and those connections, and that's what I want to get out of the whole-class discussion. But we don't even have to get there if groups have a sense of how that pattern is growing, even if they haven't gotten to the formal description of the rule. Because if they've gotten to that point, they've made some sense of the visual. They've made some of those connections. They've parsed that in different ways. That's plenty for me to have a good conversation, that we can come to that rule as a group and we can even come to it in different ways as a group. But it frees me up from being like, "OK, everybody got the rule? Everybody got the rule? Everybody got the rule?" Because that often resulted in, I'd have a couple of groups that maybe had been a little slower getting started and they're still getting there. And then I'm sitting there and I'm talking to them, I'm giving them these terribly leading questions. "Can we just get to the rule? Come on, let's go. You're almost there. We got it. We got it." And that then is, again, me taking over that thinking and not giving them the space for those ideas to breathe. Mike Wallus: What else is jumping out for me is the ramifications for how thinking this way actually might shift the way that I would plan for teaching, but also how it might shift the way that I'm looking for evidence to assess students' progress during the task. So I wonder if you have situations or maybe some recommendations for: How might a person plan in ways that help them recognize the ways that the task can be a vehicle but also plan for the kind of evidence that they might be looking for along the way? Could you talk a little bit about that? Mike Steele: Absolutely. So I'll give kind of a multi-layered description of this. When we're using a task that's got multiple solution paths that has these opportunities for diverse thinking, the five-practices framework tells us anticipating student thinking is a critical part of it. So, what are the different solution paths that students can take through it? So, if it's a visual pattern task, they may look at it this way with a visual. They may think about those tables like the tops and the bottoms and then the sides. They may think about the two ends of the tables having different numbers of chairs and the ones in between having a different number of chairs and parsing it that way. And we can develop those. It's actually, for me, quite a lot of fun to develop those fully formed solutions that students can do. And early on when I was enacting lessons like this, I would do that. I'd have those that I was looking for. I'd also think about questions I'd want to ask students who are struggling to get started or maybe were going down a path that may not be mathematically productive and the questions I might ask them to get them on a more mathematically productive path. And I'd go around and I'd look for those solutions, and I'd use that to think about my selecting, my sequencing, my connecting my whole-class discussion. So, great, check. That's layer one.  I think responding to the challenge of what's enough requires us to then take those solution paths apart—both the fully formed ones, maybe the incomplete thinking—and say, "OK, within that solution, what are the things that I want to see and hear that gives me some confidence that we're on this path, even if we're not at the end of this path, and that give me enough to think about?" So, if I think about, I'll go back again to this visual pattern task analogy. If I see groups that are talking about increases, so when we add a table, we're adding two chairs or they're making that distinction between those end tables and the center tables. And I've asked them a couple of questions like: OK, they've done that for 4, they've done that for 5. We may not have done that for 10 or 100 or a generalization, but that might be enough. So, I'm trying to take apart the mathematics and look for those little ideas within it. We've got this idea of a constant rate of change. We've got an idea that the number of tables and the number of chairs have a direct relationship here. So we're setting the stage for that functional thinking, even if, at a third grade level, we're not going to talk about that word. And those might be the important goals that I have for the lesson.  So that's the next phase of what I'm doing. In addition to those fully formed solutions, I'm figuring out: What are the little mathematical ideas in each that I would want to see or hear in my classroom that tell me, "OK, I have a good sense of where they are. I know where this bake's going to turn out 5 minutes from now on the show when they've taken it out of the oven." So, that's I think the next layer of that planning, of trying to figure out how to plan.  And then as we're in the moment in the classroom, being able to know what we're looking for and listening for. And the listening for me is really, really important. I think when I started doing this and I had a sense of, "What are the mathematical ideas I need to draw on?" I made the mistake of overly looking for those on paper. And if we think about how students make sense of writing things down, and sometimes despite our best efforts, the finality that comes with it: "If I've written it down, I have made it real." And if our thinking is still kind of this in-progress thinking, we may not be ready to write it down. So if I wait for it to be written on the page, I may have waited too long, or longer than I needed to, for everybody to get that idea. So again I want to make sure I listen for key words and phrases. And I might have a couple of questions teed up to help me hear those. And once I've heard those, I'm like, "OK, I am ready to go." And then for me—at least in my early fifties and not having the memory that I did when I was a 22-year-old, fresh-out-of-the-box classroom teacher—I need to have a way of keeping track of that and writing that down. So be it physical, be it digital, I want to say, "OK, I know what I'm listening for, what I'm looking for." And sometimes those may be interchangeable. If it's written on the page, great. If not, if I hear it, that's great too. And then if I've got a pretty good roster of that as I've moved through and say, "OK, I feel like all of my groups or most of my groups are at this point, there we go." I feel confident that when I pull us back together, it's not going to be me asking a question and then that terribly awkward sea of crickets out there. I'm like, "I know you were thinking about stuff; just give it to me. I know you've got this." But it gives me much more confidence that we're going to have that nice transition into a good whole-class discussion. Mike Wallus: OK. There's a ton of powerful stuff that you just said. So I want to try to mark two things that really jump out for me. One is an observation that I think is important, and then one is a thought that I want to pick your brain around a little bit further.  I think the biggest piece that I heard you say, which as you were talking about, is this notion that I'm waiting for something to appear in written form. And it feels really freeing and it gives me a lot more space to say, "This is something I could hear or I could even see in the way that kids were manipulating materials. That that counts as evidence, and I don't have to literally see it written on a paper in order for me to count that that idea is in the room." I just want to name that for the audience because that feels tremendously important. Because from a practical standpoint, if we're waiting for it to be written, that takes more time. And it doesn't necessarily mean that suddenly it appeared and before when it was just in a child's mind or in the way that they were manipulating something, that it wasn't there. It was there. So I just want to mark that.  The other thing that you had me thinking about is, I know for myself, I've gone through and done some of the anticipation work in the five practices, but what struck me is when my colleagues and I would do that, we often would generate quite a few alternative strategies or ideas. But I feel like what we were looking at is the final outcome, like, "This counting by 1 strategy is what we might see. This decomposing numbers more flexibly is something we might see. This counting on strategy is something we might see." But what we didn't talk about that I think you're advocating for is: What are the moments within that that matter? It's almost like: What in the process of getting to this anticipated strategy is something that is useful or important that counts as one of those ingredients? So I want to run that past you and say, does that follow or am I missing something? Mike Steele: It does. And I think those two things go together in a really important way because as you're talking about that pivotal moment in student thinking, as they're coming to this new understanding, as they're grappling with that mathematical idea, and thinking about, "What are the implications if we leverage that moment right there to then ask more questions to connect different ways of student thinking as compared to waiting till it's written down?" Because when it's written down, that exciting moment of the new discovery has passed. And so then when we want them to come revisit—"Tell us what you were thinking when you did that."—they're having to rewind and go back and reenact that.  If we have the ability to capture those neurons firing at full throttle in that moment of a new mathematical insight and then use that to build on as a teacher and to really get where we want to go with the lesson, I feel like we're doing the right thing by kids by trying to seize that moment, to leverage it. We always have time to write down what we think we learned later on at the end of the lesson. It's a great task for homework. And that's another thing I love about leaving some things unfinished with a task is, that's just a delightful homework assignment. And the kids love it because they don't feel like I've asked them to do anything new. (laughs) Just write down what you understood about this, and now we're codifying it kind of at a different place in the process. Mike Wallus: Well, OK, and that makes me think about something else. Because you've helped me recognize that I don't have to wait for a final solution in writing that's fleshed out in order to start a whole-group conversation. But I think what you're saying is, it changes the tone and maybe also the purpose and the impact of that conversation on students. Because if I have a task that I'm midway through and suddenly there's a conversation that helps create some understanding, some aha moments, if my task is unfinished and I had an aha, I probably really want to go back to that and see if I can apply that aha. And that's kind of cool to imagine like a classroom where you have a bunch of kids dying to go back and see if they can figure out how they can put that to use. Now you wouldn't always have to do that, but that strikes me as different than a consolidation conversation where it's kind of like, "Well, everything's finished. What have we learned?" Those are valuable. But I'm just really, I think in love with the possibility that a conversation that doesn't always wait until final solutions creates for learning. Mike Steele: And when I've seen this done effectively, there are these moments that happen. Mike, they're exactly what you're describing, is that there's an insight that comes up in the whole-class conversation, and you will see people going back to their paper or their tablet that they were doing their original work on and start writing. And we know oftentimes with kids, I remember so many times in my classroom where we're having this discussion, this important point comes up, and everybody's kind of frozen. And I'm like, "No, you should write that down. That's the important thing. Write that down." And when you see it happen organically, it's because something really catalyzed in insight that was important enough that they went back to that work and said, "Oh, I want to capture this." Mike Wallus: So, I'm wondering if there are habits of mind, habits in planning, or habits in practice that we could distill down. So, how would you unpack the things that a person might do if they're listening and they're like, "I want to do this today," or "I want to do this at my next planning."? Could you talk a little bit about what are the baby steps, so to speak, for a person? Mike Steele: Yeah, and I think the first one is really about getting into the mathematics and going deep with the mathematics in the task that you're hoping to teach. As somebody who is trained as a secondary math teacher, and early in my career, I was like, "Oh, I know what the math is. I don't need to spend the time on the math." I can't tell you how wrong I was about that. So anticipating those ways of thinking, thinking about where those challenges are, that sort of thing, is absolutely critically important to doing that work. And giving the time and space for that to happen. I mean, it was almost without fail. Every time I shorted myself on the time to think about the mathematics and just popped open my instructional resource and said, "Here we go. Class starts in 5 minutes. Let's get going on this," I'd bump into things that I was like, "Oh, I wish I had thought about that mathematical idea first." Or there'd be a question that would come up that I'd be totally unprepared to answer and I could have been prepared to answer. Now, we're not going to anticipate every way of thinking that students have or every question that they'll have, but I always find that if I've thought through it, I'm probably in a better position to give a meaningful answer to it or ask a good question back in response. And it also frees up my cognitive load to actually spend some time on those questions that I didn't expect rather than trying to make sense of everything as if it's the first time I'm seeing it.  And then along with that, doing this as a group, we used to sit in our PLC sessions and start to solve tasks together and share our thinking about, "OK, what are the mathematical ideas that we're really trying to take apart here?" And there were always insights that didn't occur to me that would occur to somebody else that added to my own thinking. And now in an increasingly digitally connected age, we don't necessarily have to be in the same room with people to do that. We can do that at a distance and still be very effective.  And then the last thing I'll talk about here in terms of getting started is: We are so good as teachers at sharing an interesting task that we found or that we used with our students with our colleagues. "Here's this thing I use in my class. It was great. You're a couple days behind me in the pacing. Maybe you can use this next Tuesday." What we I think are less good at is bringing back the outcomes of that and talking about that. "Here's what students did." I loved it when we had opportunities to gather a group of teachers in the PLC with student work from a task they did and talk about it and see: What did students make sense of? What were the questions that I asked that were helpful, or that maybe weren't helpful, in teaching that lesson. Because we'll share the task, but my goodness, the questions that we came up with to ask students in the moment, those are just as portable from one classroom to another. And we should be thinking about, just like we think about digital archives to share those tasks and those lesson plans—like sharing those questions, sharing that student work—those are the other legs of that stool that are important for really helping us do this work in a meaningful and collaborative way. Because if we don't talk about the outcomes of what students learned, the task could be great, it could be interesting, but so what? What's the important mathematical insights that kids took away from it? Mike Wallus: Yeah, I'm kind of in love with this notion that in addition to sharing tasks, sharing questions that really generated an impact in the classroom space or sharing moments of insight that led to something that jumped out. It's fascinating to think about taking those ideas and building them into a regular PLC process. It just has so much potential.  Before we close the conversation, I wanted to ask you a question that I ask almost every guest: If someone wanted to learn more about the ideas that you've shared today, what are some of the resources you'd recommend? Mike Steele: Well, I've talked quite a bit about the work of the 5 Practices for Orchestrating Productive Discussions and that series of books that have been written over the past 15 years on that—the resources that are available online for that, I think, would be a great place to start. I've only scratched the surface at taking you through those five practices—which are actually six practices, because early on we realized that attention to the task we select and the goals for that task is the important "practice zero." In fact, it was a teacher that pointed that out to Peg Smith. And that's the lovely thing. So the reason I've stayed in touch with and helped to develop this work over the years is because when we see teachers taking it up, not only is it meaningful, but the feedback we get from teachers then shapes the next things that we do with it. So there's the original 5 practices book that kind of presents the model, shows some examples of tasks and how you go through the model.  But then in 2019 and 2020, we published a series called The 5 Practices in Practice that, there's a book for each grade band—elementary, middle, and high school. But those were the ones that really aggregated the challenges that we heard from teachers over 10 years of doing this work and started to address those challenges. How do you overcome those things? We also, for each of those books, there's brand-new original video that we took in urban classrooms that illustrated teachers working really effectively with the five practices. I was able to be in the room when we filmed all of the high school classrooms in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and it was just amazing to see that work.  And then the last piece that I'll suggest to that, which is a book that came out relatively recently in that series. There is a Coaching the 5 Practices book. So if you are a coach, instructional leader who's looking to support a team and a PLC in doing exactly this sort of work that we've been talking about, the Coaching the 5 Practices book is an incredible resource for thinking about how you can structure that work. Mike Wallus: OK. I have to also ask you, can you give a shout out to the article that you recently wrote and published as well, the title and where people could find it? Mike Steele: Absolutely. Yes. The article is called "Pacing a Discourse-Rich Lesson: When to Move On," and I authored it alongside an elementary and middle school teacher who provided a reflection on it. It comes from the classroom of a high school teacher, Michael Moore, in Milwaukee, who we filmed for the [5 Practices in Practice] high school book. So I drew from his classroom. And then Kara Benson in Zionsville Community Schools right here in Zionsville, Indiana. And Kelly Agnew who teaches in Muncie Community Schools, which is where Ball State [University] is located. Each provided a reflection from an elementary and middle school standpoint about the ideas in the article. It was published in NCTM'S practitioner journal, Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, in the Volume 118, Issue 11, from November of 2025. Mike Wallus: That's fantastic. And for listeners, just so you know, we're going to put a link to all of the resources that Mike shared.  I think this is probably a good place to stop, Mike. I suspect we could talk for much longer. I just want to thank you, though, for taking the time to join the podcast. It has been an absolute pleasure chatting with you. Mike Steele: The pleasure has been all mine. As you can tell, I love talking about these ideas, and I was so glad to have the opportunity to share a little bit of this with the audience. Mike Wallus: This podcast is brought to you by The Math Learning Center and the Maier Math Foundation, dedicated to inspiring and enabling all individuals to discover and develop their mathematical confidence and ability. © 2026 The Math Learning Center | www.mathlearningcenter.org

Author and therapist KATE KING joins Andrew this week to discuss the question of whether to “Mend or Move On”. Kate challenges the assumption that family loyalty and social harmony should come at the expense of personal well-being. Not every connection is worth saving - but how do you know whether your relationship is worth healing, or whether it's time for an honest goodbye? Andrew and Kate discuss: What differentiates a truly toxic relationship from one that is merely misaligned or has expired beyond its purpose.  Why constructing walls—physical, emotional, and/or energetic barriers that keep people out—actually strengthens relationships. The critical difference between being needy vs having needs in relationships The importance of staying curious in healthy relationships.  Kate King is the author of Mend or Move On: A Guide to Healing or Leaving Toxic Relationships. She trained as a licensed professional counselor, art therapist, and clinical psychotherapist, and now works as a depth and creativity coach offering Radiant Life Coaching. She lives in Colorado in the US, where she offers both in-person and online support for individuals, groups, and audiences of many kinds in various parts of the world. If You're Looking for More….

MeidasTouch and MoveOn hosted an alternative to the Donald Trump State Of The Union address last night on the National Mall, featuring a lineup of lawmakers, activists, and just regular folks whose lives have been upended by Trump and his reckless, racist policies. Austin Congressman Greg Casar was one of the speakers, and we bring you his remarks from the People's State Of The Union event here.Watch the entire event at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oArKZutSbF0.Thanks for listening!

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, we break down the growing political storm surrounding Donald Trump as Democratic lawmakers increasingly signal they will skip his State of the Union in favor of attending the People's State of the Union hosted by MeidasTouch and MoveOn. We examine Trump's sharp collapse in the polls, particularly among Independents, alongside the mounting chaos tied to his escalating rhetoric about a potential war with Iran. We also discuss the U.S. Women's Olympic gold medal hockey team declining Trump's invitation to attend the address after his disparaging remarks, the expanding Epstein fallout now hitting the United Kingdom, and Trump's continued political and economic fallout after the Supreme Court dealt a major blow to his tariff regime.

Episode Summary In this episode of the Work at Home Rockstar Podcast, Tim Melanson chats with Bill Flynn, CEO of Catalyst Growth Advisors, about what it really takes to build a business that thrives, not just survives. Bill shares a powerful story of stepping into leadership during a crisis, rebuilding a company after an infrastructure collapse, and creating a performance operating system that doubled the business in two years without losing a single team member. From hiring for values over skills to escaping the "hero trap," Bill breaks down the three pillars of sustainable growth: team, systems, and cash. The conversation also dives into navigating today's fast-changing BANI world, using AI as an accelerant instead of a crutch, and why the fundamentals of attracting customers haven't changed at all. Who is Bill Flynn? Bill Flynn is the CEO of Catalyst Growth Advisors, where he helps leaders take the guesswork out of growth. With 30 years of experience across ten startups, multiple acquisitions, two IPOs, and a major turnaround during the 2008 financial crisis, Bill now coaches leaders on how to build thriving, scalable businesses. He is the author of Further, Faster – The Vital Few Steps that Take the Guesswork out of Growth and specializes in helping CEOs fire themselves from the day-to-day so they can focus on building systems that scale.

February is known as the month of love,roses, chocolates, and Valentine's Day vibes. But what about the other side of love?In this heartfelt and honest episode of “Let's Move On”, The Modern Akatsuki team sit together to talk about breakups, heartbreak, and the emotional roller coaster that follows. From late-night overthinking to self-discovery and healing, we speak about the real phase of life called moving on.This episode isn't about blaming, regretting, or reliving the past .It's about growth, acceptance, and finding yourself again after love. If you've ever had to let go, rebuild, or start over, this conversation is for you.Because sometimes, moving on isn't the end of love it's the beginning of loving yourself.

What do you do with songs you adore but can't file anywhere? That was the inspiration for Sam's 2026 birthday mix.  He shares with Matt everything from TV themes that outshine their shows, soundtrack deep cuts that became life markers, long builds that earn their intensity, and genre-bending grooves that defy labels.We start with Benjamin Clementine's Nemesis and the power of a great intro to set tone and memory, then shift to Regina Spektor's reminder not to confuse sugar with love. A Nike-era earworm from Crystal Fighters and Puscifer's Grand Canyon showcase how movement and mood can make a song feel cinematic. Death Cab for Cutie's I Will Possess Your Heart proves the four-minute intro isn't excess—it's obsession rendered in sound. Passion Pit reframes a Smashing Pumpkins classic into a floating, nerve-steadying cover, while Anderson .Paak's Till It's Over blooms from grayscale to neon like a perfect post-work reset.Meg Washington's How to Tame Lions hooks by tone and clever wordplay even when meaning stays elusive. Del Castillo lights up the room with blistering Spanish guitar, conjuring old west horizons without a single frame of film. Lorde's A World Alone lands a painfully true line about growing up online. Mr. Scruff's Get a Move On becomes the exact soundtrack to your morning routine. And Zero 7's Likufanele closes with a hypnotic chant that turns focus into flow.If you enjoyed the ride, share the episode with a friend, subscribe for more curated mixes, and leave a five-star review to help us climb to number one by episode 200.https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/sam-sam-birthday-2026-mix/pl.u-9DX3du7dDK4bNemesis - Benjamin ClementineSugarMan - Regina SpektorFollow - Crystal FightersGrand Canyon - PusciferI Will Possess Your Heart - Death Cab for CutieTonight, Tonight - Passion Pit ‘Til It's Over - Anderson PaakHow To Tame Lions - Meg WashingtonEl Corrido De Don Lulai - Del CastilloA World Alone - Lorde Get A Move On! - Mr. ScruffLikufanele - Zero 7 Support the showVisit us at https://www.superawesomemix.com to learn more about our app, our merchandise, our cards, and more!

In this episode of the Speaking Business Podcast, Maria Franzoni is joined by Paul McGee, widely known as The Sumo Guy. Paul shares the real story behind building a long, sustainable speaking career, from losing his corporate job through ill health to becoming a bestselling author and one of the UK's most recognisable keynote speakers. They explore how S.U.M.O. (Shut Up, Move On) became a memorable and commercially viable framework, how Paul has kept his material relevant for over three decades, and why mindset, humour and practicality still matter more than slick performance. Paul also talks openly about fees, when speaking for low or no fee can make sense, how to judge success beyond audience applause, and what new speakers often misunderstand about turning passion into a paid business. An honest conversation about longevity, relevance, and what it really takes to stay bookable in a crowded speaking market.

Is anger, regret or sadness still tying you to your past? In this episode, you'll learn how finding forgiveness helps you heal unhealthy emotions, create closure, and move on. You'll learn about the two types of forgiveness and how to shift your mindset so you can finally feel happier, freer, and more like yourself again. If happiness and well-being feel out of reach right now, I hope you dive into this one. Forgiveness often sounds simple, but it can feel deeply challenging when anger, regret, or unresolved pain linger. I'm revisiting this episode because these unhealthy feelings tend to hold on quietly, shaping how we feel long after the moment has passed. In this conversation, I talk about what forgiveness really is and what it is not, and how finding forgiveness can support healing and closure without excusing harm or abandoning your boundaries. We explore the difference between forgiving yourself and forgiving someone else, especially when there has been no apology, no repair, or no justice. You'll hear how to work with difficult emotions like sadness and resentment, how to move on when the other person may never change, and how forgiveness can support your growth, well-being, and peace of mind. If part of you feels like you should be over it by now, but something still feels unfinished, this episode offers a more compassionate way forward. Forgiveness is not about forgetting or minimizing what happened. It's about releasing what no longer serves you so you can heal and feel happier in your life today. Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Finding Forgiveness and Emotional Healing 03:25 The Two Types of Forgiveness: Yourself and Others 05:52 How Anger, Regret, and Guilt Impact Happiness 07:56 Self-Forgiveness Through Compassion and Growth 15:00 Making Amends and Repairing Harm 21:59 How to Forgive Someone Who Isn't Sorry 24:19 Letting Go Without Excusing Harm 28:56 Forgiveness, Boundaries, and Emotional Safety 31:19 Choosing Forgiveness to Move On and Feel at Peace If this conversation about finding forgiveness stirred something tender for you, I want you to know you don't have to work through it alone. I'd love for you to schedule a free consultation with me or someone on my team at Growing Self. It's a private, secure space to share what you've been carrying and get matched with the right counselor or coach for where you are right now. You'll answer three quick questions, and we'll help you take a thoughtful next step toward healing and clarity. xoxo, Dr. Lisa Marie BobbyGrowing Self

Welcome to our last podcast of 2025, where, as usual, it's time for our big Intention Setting Practice. This is our biggest and most sacred practice of the year. We will dance, move, feel into our hearts, and spill it all out on paper. Who do you want to become in 2026? This practice will guide your way there. You will set goals in four different areas of your life (home, mind, body, and soul) and you will also set a clear intention, affirmation, and word of the year for 2026. This is not about ‘new year, new you'. This has nothing to do with who society wants you to be. This practice is all about becoming the most authentic version of you. All you need is a journal and a pen. Let's dive in! The song Rachel dances to in the practice is called Township Krishna by Krishna Das and can be found here. To do this practice, make sure you have first done Processing 2025: A Ritual to Move On. This will clear the air of anything still lingering from 2025. And, From the Heart Podcast is now on Patreon, where you will find bonus content and ad-free episodes. Available as a support for the Intention Setting Practice, you will find a Guidebook as well as a Bonus Episode: Embodying Your Intentions for 2026 on Patreon.  To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

The Author Events Series presents Karine Jean-Pierre | Independent : A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines In Conversation with Tamala Edwards Montgomery Auditorium is now sold out, but tickets are still available for a live simulcast screening in a separate room at the Parkway Central Library. Standby seating will be available in the overflow room for guests who wish to wait for an opportunity to be seated in the main auditorium, if space permits. These standby seats will be available on a first come, first served basis. Auditorium seats are not guaranteed. In a country obsessed with blind loyalty to a two-party democratic system, Karine Jean-Pierre, former White House press secretary to the Biden-Harris administration, shares why Americans must step beyond party lines to embrace life as Independents. Jean-Pierre didn't come to her decision to be an Independent lightly. She has served two American presidents, Obama and Biden. In 2020, she joined Biden's campaign as a senior adviser, becoming Harris's chief of staff and then, two years later, White House press secretary. She takes us through the three weeks that led to Biden's abandoning his bid for a second term and the betrayal by the Democratic Party that led to his decision. In an urgent, timely analysis, Independent urges all Americans to vote their values and maintain individuality within party lines. She presents clear arguments and provocative evidence as an insider about the importance of dismantling the torrent of disinformation and misinformation that has been rampant in recent elections and provides passionate insight for moving forward. In a hard-hitting yet hopeful critique, Jean-Pierre defines what it means to be part of the growing percentage of our fractured electorate that is Independent, why it can be worthwhile to carve a political space more loyal to personal beliefs than a party affiliation, and what questions you need to ask yourself to determine where you fit politically. As a history maker, veteran public servant, political analyst and independent thinker, she urges Americans to think outside of the blue-and-red box as we consider what's next to save our democracy. Karine Jean-Pierre was the White House Press Secretary and Special Advisor to former President Joe Biden. She has worked in senior communications and political offices in both the Biden and Obama Administrations. Prior to her time in the White House, Jean-Pierre was the Chief Public Affairs Officer for MoveOn.org. She is a graduate of Columbia University. Tamala Edwards joined 6abc in January of 2005.

What makes a thought or experience negative? And is it “bad” to have a negative thought or experience?Thom gives us food for thought in this episode, in response to a question from a guest at a recent retreat. Using his own unusual childhood as a case study, Thom explains the distinction between content and context, and the role consciousness and Vedic Meditation have in helping us negate the negative.Episode Highlights[00:45] Q - How Can My Thoughts Be Negative?[01:44] I'm a Strange Guy[03:38] Learning My ABCs[06:33] Nothing Negates the Forward Movement of Evolution[07:48] Going Back in Time[10:48] A Little Snapshot of Time Is Never Pretty[12:43] Consciousness Contextualizes Content[14:22] The Dangers of Irrelevancy[18:02] Recycling Stress[21:28] Let It Go and Move On[22:47] It's All OkayUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

Hello to you listening wherever your feet touch the ground.Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (& a bit more) for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.Maybe like me you see us careening to the end of 2025 and wondering WTF how we've been living and what, if anything can we change for the better? The following several paragraphs entitled, A Few Final Thoughts, are excerpted from Warren Buffet's Final Shareholder Letter dated 10th November 2025. Click HERE to access the entire letter published as a pdf on the Berkshire Hathaway website.“One perhaps self-serving observation. I'm happy to say I feel better about the second half of my life than the first. My advice: Don't beat yourself up over past mistakes – learn at least a little from them and move on. It is never too late to improve. Get the right heroes and copy them.Remember Alfred Nobel, later of Nobel Prize fame, who – reportedly – read his own obituary that was mistakenly printed when his brother died and a newspaper got mixed up. He was horrified at what he read and realized he should change his behavior.Don't count on a newsroom mix-up: Decide what you would like your obituary to say and live the life to deserve it.Greatness does not come about through accumulating great amounts of money, great amounts of publicity or great power in government. When you help someone in any of thousands of ways, you help the world. Kindness is costless but also priceless. Whether you are religious or not, it's hard to beat The Golden Rule as a guide to behavior.I write this as one who has been thoughtless countless times and made many mistakes but also became very lucky in learning from some wonderful friends how to behave better (still a long way from perfect, however). Keep in mind that the cleaning lady is as much a human being as the Chairman.Prompt: What do you make of the notion that greatness is defined not by wealth or power, but by the kindness and help we offer to others in everyday situations? Can you share a personal story that illustrates a moment when you realized a need for change in your behavior, similar to Alfred Nobel's realizations after reading his premature obituary? What helps you live each day in a way that aligns with the values and legacy you'd wish to be remembered for?”A Few Final Thoughts is excerpted from Final Shareholder Letter by Warren Buffet dated 11-10-25You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

In today's powerful message, “Forced to Move On,” Pastor Sean Pinder dives deep into Luke 4:16–32, where Jesus returns to His hometown only to be rejected by the very people who watched Him grow up. What happens when the place you expected to be embraced becomes the place that pushes you away? What do you do when God uses rejection as redirection?Pastor Sean reveals how God can use uncomfortable transitions to launch you into your next season. Sometimes the door that closes is the very thing that sets you free. In this sermon, you will learn:

Healing isn't just physical—it's emotional, spiritual, and deeply personal. This week on The Conscious Diva, Reggie Hubbard opens up about his journey of recovery after a stroke and how yoga continues to guide him toward wholeness.In this highly inspiring conversation, Reggie shares his story of recovery, resilience, and renewal. He reminds us that healing isn't just about getting back to where we were—it's about awakening to who we can become.On the pod:-              How the music and artistry of Prince inspire Reggie in entirely new ways.-              How he founded Active Peace Yoga — He is a teacher, activist, and sound healer whose life and work bridge the worlds of spirituality and social change.-              How Reggie's experience and recovery journey with stroke has been a lesson and a blessing.-              Reggie's story is a reminder that even in our most challenging moments, peace is always possible—and that the path to transformation begins within.-              Reggie explains that when peace aligns with civic responsibility, it lays the foundation for meaningful and transformative change. Before yoga, Reggie spent decades as a seasoned political strategist, working with the Bernie Sanders campaign, serving as congressional liaison for MoveOn, and holding a variety of high-profile positions in Washington. His journey from political activism to peace activism is a powerful testament to transformation—proof that awareness and compassion can exist at the intersection of inner and outer change.Listen, share, and help raise awareness for stroke recovery and the power of mindful movement.LINKS: https://activepeaceyoga.comhttps://strokeonward.orgThank you so much for listening, and thanks to my sponsors.This Episode is brought to you by:  • The Sattva Collection - 10% off with code TheConsciousDiva • Birds & Beans Organic Coffee - 10% off with DIVA2025The Conscious Diva Podcast wouldn't be possible without your support!

We've got ourselves a good old-fashioned legislative brawl over hemp. The Senate just shut down Rand Paul's amendment that tried to strip out restrictions on intoxicating hemp products from the new government funding deal. This is the kind of hemp that doesn't quite fall under marijuana, the THCA and Delta-9 stuff that's skirted federal legality thanks to a 2018 farm bill maneuver. Paul, joined by Ted Cruz and a solid group of Democrats, argued this would gut the hemp industry in Kentucky and beyond. Mitch McConnell, of all people, led the charge in cracking down — he wants to shut down what he sees as a loophole before he exits stage right in 2026.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.The hemp industry is pissed. They lobbied hard, warning this will lead to job losses, ruined crops, and wiped-out businesses. But some law enforcement groups, anti-drug organizations, and even alcohol and legal marijuana folks were all in favor. They argue the current situation puts minors at risk and needs to be cleaned up. Rand Paul says his fight wasn't about holding up the government funding, but rather making sure someone in the Senate stood up for hemp farmers. Still, the amendment failed, and the broader bill — restrictions included — is going to move forward. And unless something magical happens in the House, it looks like the loophole days are done.Personally, I'm pretty skeptical of the idea that we're one bad gummy away from chaos in the streets. I've never bought the whole “kids are going to die if we don't regulate this tomorrow” pitch. That's not to say we shouldn't have age restrictions and public usage laws — we definitely should — but we need to be real about this. America needs a consistent weed policy. We're in this weird limbo where it's both legal and illegal, regulated and unregulated, and the result is that nobody really knows what's what.The 50-Year Mortgage PlanDonald Trump floated the idea of a 50-year mortgage on Truth Social, and it immediately got dragged on cable news. Fox Business host Charlie Payne slammed the plan as a bad way to fix housing affordability. The math doesn't lie: you might pay less per month, but in the long run, you'd nearly double the total cost of the house. That didn't stop Bill Pulte, head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, from calling it a game-changer. But Pulte's now facing heat because this idea just doesn't have a lot of fans.The appeal is pretty simple. You give younger buyers a way into the housing market with a lower monthly payment. Maybe that helps them get in the game earlier, buy a house in their twenties, start building equity. But let's be honest — the problem isn't just the monthly payment. It's the cost of everything. I didn't buy a house in my twenties because I wasn't ready, and I wanted to live a little. That's not a mortgage issue. That's a culture issue.And when I finally did buy, I didn't care how long the mortgage was. I cared about location, timing, and whether I actually wanted to settle down. A 50-year mortgage might help on the margins, but it's not the silver bullet for housing affordability. Maybe it gets a few people in the door earlier. Maybe not. But it's certainly not going to fix the system.Schumer on the Hot SeatChuck Schumer is taking incoming fire from all directions. After eight Senate Democrats voted with Republicans to end the shutdown, a lot of progressives decided enough was enough. Groups like MoveOn and Indivisible are now calling for Schumer to resign. Even some moderates are joining the chorus. They say he's out of touch, ineffective, and unable to confront Trump in any meaningful way.MoveOn claims 80% of their members want Schumer out. Representatives like Rashida Tlaib, Ro Khanna, and Seth Moulton have all voiced their displeasure. But over in the House, Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is standing by Schumer. He gave a full-throated endorsement, saying Schumer is the right man for the job and that his fight during the shutdown was valiant. So at least publicly, Schumer isn't going anywhere.But this does shine a spotlight on the growing rift within the Democratic Party. The progressives want more aggression, more resistance, and less compromise. Schumer's old-school Senate style — the backroom deals, the procedural wrangling — doesn't cut it for them anymore. Whether or not this turns into an actual leadership challenge is still up in the air. But the frustration is loud and growing, and Chuck is smack in the middle of it.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:39 - Latest on Shutdown00:04:21 - Interview with Kirk Bado00:29:16 - Update00:29:52 - Hemp Products00:33:57 - 50-Year Mortgages00:37:58 - Calls for Schumer to Resign00:41:41 - Interview with Kirk Bado (con't)01:08:10 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast: Trump makes the absurd and mathematically impossible claim that he lowered drug prices by “more than 1500%” as his economy continues to crater and jobs vanish. Right-wing media tries to deflect from Trump's disasters with their newest culture war subject: Sydney Sweeney. Texas Democrats take a bold stand, fleeing the state to block a gerrymandering power grab while Republicans threaten them with arrest. Trump brags about his relationship with notorious conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer, and his unhinged DOJ launches a sham investigation into Democrats over the Russia probe. Meanwhile, MAGA supporters rally for the release of convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, Trump gets booed at WWE Summer Slam, and MeidasTouch Gen Z correspondent Adam Mockler hits the road with MoveOn to fire up the grassroots.
