When it comes to teaching grammar, the research is clear. Drill and kill is not what we're looking for. You don't want to march through a series of grammar lessons unrelated to your students' writing and reading. Here's what NCTE's "Resolution on Grammar Exercises to Teach Speaking and Writing" has to say about it: "This resolution was prompted by the continuing use of repetitive grammar drills and exercises in the teaching of English in many schools. Proposers pointed out that ample evidence from 50 years of research has shown that the teaching of grammar in isolation does not lead to improvement in students' speaking and writing, and that, in fact, it hinders the development of students' oral and written language. Be it therefore resolved, that the National Council of Teachers of English affirm the position that the use of isolated grammar and usage exercises not supported by theory and research is a deterrent to the improvement of students' speaking and writing and that, in order to improve both of these, class time at all levels must be devoted to opportunities for meaningful listening, speaking, reading, and writing; and that NCTE urge the discontinuance of testing practices that encourage the teaching of grammar rather than English language arts instruction." So how can we teach students about writer's craft moves, and the rich palette of options that grammar provides them in making meaning? Well, that's our subject for today's "Plan My Lesson" episode. I received several requests for lessons to make grammar more fun, so today we're talking about ideas for making grammar moments more effective AND more interesting when it comes to lesson planning. You won't find any multiple-choice here, but you will find ideas you could try weaving into your lessons, regardless of where your students are in their writing journey.

Welcome back to The NERVE!

Hurricane Katrina and the Gulf Coast Crisis that unfolded in 2005 marked a major social movement turning point in the United States. Katrina exposed the combination of a heightened climate crisis and how the state and private forces are arranged not to protect or rebuild but to extract, abandon, and displace our people and our resources.

In a recent interview with Steve Gurney of the Positive Aging Community, registered nurses Elisabeth Mack and Sherri Mack shared their expertise on plant-based therapy, specifically cannabis and hemp-derived products, for older adults. With decades of nursing experience, both have transitioned from traditional medical settings to pioneering the use of cannabinoids to improve quality of life, particularly for seniors. Their company, Holistic Caring and The Green Nurse, offers education, coaching, and consulting to help individuals navigate this evolving field Bloom Hemp CBD, their sister company, specializes in organic hemp-based CBD formulas tailored to target specific symptoms. They also provide free access to a nurse hotline and personalized care plans to support your wellness journey.Personal Journeys to Plant-Based MedicineElisabeth Mack, MBA, BSN, RN, discovered cannabis as medicine after a bicycle accident left her reliant on high doses of ibuprofen and muscle relaxants. Introduced to CBD through a topical massage at her chiropractor's office, she experienced reduced inflammation and pain after adding CBD extracts to her supplement regimen, prompting her to research cannabis extensively. This led to her book, Cannabis for Health: Become a Coach, and the development of training programs for healthcare professionals, nurses and patients.Sherri Mack, BSN, RN, widely known as The Green Nurse, experienced a life-altering health crisis in 2012 that left her hospitalized in the ICU and dependent on numerous pharmaceuticals. Her turning point came when a 70-year-old nurse introduced her to cannabis, which enabled her to transition off 18 medications. Motivated to empower others through her experience, Sherri founded The Green Nurse. In 2021, she joined forces with Elisabeth's Holistic Caring, creating a robust educational platform called Holistic Caring & The Green Nurse. This platform features a free network designed to help individuals adopt, optimize, and maintain holistic approaches to health and wellness using plant medicines.Cannabis nursing has emerged as a recognized specialty, officially endorsed by the American Nurses Association in 2023. The National Council of State Boards of Nursing now requires nurses to be educated on cannabis as a form of medicine. Key resources, such as Cannabis: A Handbook for Nurses (featuring Chapter 9, "The Cannabis Nurse Experience," co-authored by Sherri) and Elisabeth's book, offer valuable professional training. Their comprehensive 30-unit health coach program empowers nurses to incorporate cannabis therapy into their practice, broadening access to this specialized care.Elisabeth and Sherri Mack are transforming how older adults approach plant-based therapy, offering a compassionate, evidence-based alternative to traditional pharmaceuticals. By combining their nursing expertise with personalized coaching, they empower seniors to manage pain, enhance well-being, and live their best lives. For those interested, their resources at Holistic Caring and Bloom Hemp provide a trusted starting point to explore this natural option.For more information, visit Holistic Caring & The Green Nurse  https://holisticcaring.com/ or contact their free nurse line at 970-404-HOPE(4673) to begin your journey with plant-based therapy.

Welcome back to another episode of School Counseling Simplified! Today, I'm thrilled to introduce you to an inspiring guest: Dr. Crystal Collier, PhD, LPC-S. Dr. Collier is a therapist, educator, and author, known for her powerful work in prevention education and brain development. She is the author of The NeuroWhereAbouts Guide and the Know Your Neuro children's book series. The Know Your Neuro prevention model was selected for the Prevention and Education Commendation from the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence. Dr. Collier received the Torch Bearer Award from the Texas Association of Addiction Professionals, Outstanding Research Award from the Association of Alternative Peer Groups, and was voted Counselor of the Year by the Houston Counseling Association. In this episode, Dr. Collier dives deep into: Risky behaviors to watch for in elementary students How early intervention impacts brain development The effects of screen time and technology on the brain The case for phone-free and watch-free schools Why it's never too early to talk to kids about feelings, empathy, and healthy coping She shares sobering insights, like how 50% of anxiety disorders are diagnosed by age 6, and how exposure to drugs, alcohol, and even pornography can start as early as elementary school. But the good news? The brain can change! We can equip kids with tools early, long before they reach their “peak” development years. The key lies in prevention, consistent brain-based education, and empowering parents and counselors with the right strategies. Key Takeaways for School Counselors: Feelings education is critical: Teach students to name and express emotions to avoid avoidant coping strategies. Social experience matters: Lack of play and exposure can lead to higher anxiety. Early empathy-building can prevent bullying down the road. Prevention strategies must begin in early childhood and evolve as students grow. Teach executive functioning through brain-based praise and risk education. Use tools from www.knowyourneuro.org to implement evidence-based practices. Pro tip from Dr. Collier: Encourage parents to have six 10-minute brain conversations per year with their kids—it's a simple but powerful way to build awareness. Birth to age 3 is foundational—more kids are sitting with screens than moving their bodies, which affects motor skill development.

We've all heard the story of Adam and Eve. The so-called “first sin,” the disobedience, the downfall. But what if we've been reading it wrong? What if this ancient story isn't about the first sinner…but the first failed leader? In this episode, leadership scholar and host Dr. Kimberly DeSimone challenges centuries of patriarchal interpretation by reframing the Genesis narrative through the lens of modern, evidence-based leadership theory. From blame-shifting to moral cowardice, we explore how Adam's behavior maps onto core leadership failures across five foundational models: Transformational, Servant, Authentic, Adaptive, and Ethical Leadership. We also examine the enduring harm caused by reading Eve as the source of sin—a misreading that has fueled generations of bias, blame, and the marginalization of women. With insight from feminist and womanist scholars like Phyllis Trible, Renita Weems, and Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza, this episode is a powerful call to reclaim sacred texts in ways that center accountability, equity, and truth. Key Topics Covered: Re-examining Genesis 2–3: What the Bible actually says vs. how it's been taught How Adam failed as a leader, not just as a man of faith Applying 5 modern leadership theories to the Eden narrative The damaging legacy of blaming Eve—and by extension, women—for failure The power of feminist biblical interpretation and why it matters How reclaiming this story can lead to more just and equitable leadership today Biblical References: Genesis 2:16–17, 2:22, 3:6, 3:12 (The Holy Bible, New Revised Standard Version. Division of Christian Education of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the USA, 1989.) Scholars & Thought Leaders: Trible, P. (1984). Texts of Terror Trible, P. (1978). God and the Rhetoric of Sexuality Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza – In Memory of Her (1983) Renita J. Weems – Just a Sister Away (1988) Carol Meyers – Discovering Eve (1988) Harding, S. (1991). Whose Science? Whose Knowledge?: Thinking from Women's Lives Code, L. (1991). What Can She Know? Feminist Theory and the Construction of Knowledge  My Manifestatement (Key Takeaway): “It's time to stop interpreting scripture only through the eyes of patriarchy. If we want better leaders, we need better stories—ones that hold power accountable and stop demonizing women to excuse weak leadership.”   Let's Connect @AdvancingWomenPodcast    Please subscribe, rate, and share the podcast!

In this episode of iGaming Daily, brought to you by Optimove, Jessica Welman and Charlie Horner, delve into the legal battle surrounding the National US Gambling Support Hotline, 1-800-GAMBLER. At stake is the continued operation of a lifeline for countless Americans struggling with gambling addiction. Managed by the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG), the hotline plays a critical national role by connecting individuals to localised support. However, a contract dispute with the Council on Compulsive Gambling of New Jersey (CCGNJ), which owns the number, has triggered a lawsuit. NCPG argues the agreement included an auto-renewal clause, while CCGNJ appears unwilling to renew. With millions invested in promoting the hotline and its irreplaceable role in national problem gambling prevention, industry leaders are urging swift resolution.California's gaming landscape is also heating up, with legal friction erupting across Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS), sweepstakes, and prediction markets. A recent opinion from the California Attorney General states that most DFS formats, including peer-to-peer and house-based games, likely violate state law. This development could affect even traditional fantasy leagues and has triggered pushback from major operators. FanDuel seems inclined toward negotiation, potentially aiming to strengthen tribal partnerships, while DraftKings, PrizePicks, and Underdog are pushing back aggressively.We also cover breaking updates on California's sweepstakes legislation and a groundbreaking federal lawsuit involving prediction markets. New amendments clarify that the sweepstakes bill targets suppliers, including affiliates, rather than end users. Meanwhile, three tribal nations have filed a federal lawsuit against Kalahi and Robinhood, arguing that prediction markets constitute Class 3 gaming under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA).

Latrenda Knighten, current president of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), joins us for the second part of our illuminating conversation on professional collaboration and growth in mathematics education.We begin with a playful discussion of Pi Approximation Day (July 22nd or 22/7). What will you do to celebrate?Then part two of our conversation – a profound exploration of professional identity and community in teaching. Knighten draws from her personal journey to illustrate how early exposure to professional networks transformed her teaching practice and accelerated her growth as an educator."Teaching can be a career where a lot of times you work in isolation," Knighten observes, highlighting how this isolation creates barriers to professional development. She makes a compelling case for fostering environments where teachers feel comfortable asking questions, sharing challenges, and collaborating across grade levels. These "vertical discussions" prove particularly valuable, allowing educators to understand mathematical progressions more deeply than single-grade expertise permits.For teachers struggling to find supportive communities, Knighten offers practical strategies—from leveraging virtual platforms to building informal networks outside school hours. "There is no excuse for not having someone to collaborate with," she emphasizes, pointing to technological tools that make connection possible regardless of geographic limitations.The conversation culminates with Knighten's passionate reminder that effective mathematics teaching practices—student engagement, encouraging questioning, problem-solving, critical thinking—have been validated by decades of research. "Let's stick with what we know is good and effective and let's just build on that," she urges, connecting these approaches to the skills most valued in today's workforce.Whether you're new to teaching mathematics or a veteran educator, this episode offers invaluable insights into creating professional communities that sustain and enhance your practice. Listen now to discover how breaking free from classroom isolation can transform both your teaching experience and your students' learning outcomes!You can connect with Latrenda Knighton on X (@LatrendaK)Send Joel and Misty a message!The More Math for More People Podcast is produced by CPM Educational Program.

First, we start off with National Pet Safety Day. How will you celebrate? Well, if you want to get a Save our Pets sticker? You could go here.Then, what does it take to lead one of the the largest mathematics education organization in the world? Latrenda Knighton, current president of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), opens up about her journey from kindergarten teacher to mathematics education leader in part one of this insightful conversation.Drawing from over three decades in education, Latrenda shares how her early experiences with professional organizations shaped her approach to leadership. "I started as an affiliate leader and member very early in my teaching career," she explains, highlighting how these connections provided support beyond what was available at the school level. Now as NCTM president, she's focused on strengthening these affiliate relationships while expanding professional development opportunities for educators everywhere.The heart of Latrenda's mission revolves around three key priorities. First, supporting teachers through accessible professional learning opportunities beyond traditional conferences – including webinars, journals, and podcasts that meet educators where they are. Second, highlighting the critical importance of early mathematics education, which she champions through partnerships with early childhood organizations. And third, ensuring students across all grade levels engage in meaningful, sense-making mathematical experiences."An engaged student is a more productive student, is a more confident student," LaTrenda emphasizes, distinguishing between student engagement and mere entertainment. She advocates for mathematics instruction that helps students make connections between concepts and real-world applications, building on their existing knowledge while preparing them for future learning.The episode also features Andy Peterson-Longmore introducing her Teacher Research Community project focused on bringing joy and fun back to high school mathematics classrooms without sacrificing rigor or content. Her work complements Latrenda's vision of mathematics education that empowers both teachers and students.Tune in to this rich conversation about mathematics education leadership, and don't miss part two coming next week where we'll dive deeper into professional development and the future of mathematics teaching and learning.You can connect with Latrenda through X (@LatrendaK). Send Joel and Misty a message!The More Math for More People Podcast is produced by CPM Educational Program.

On this week's edition of Hoosier Ag This Week: President Trump has signed the "One Big Beautiful Bill" into law. Eric Pfeiffer reports how it includes many tax breaks and provisions to help America's farmers and rural communities. Benton County native Chuck Conner is retiring after serving more than 40 years as a national ag leader in Washington, D.C. C.J. Miller spoke with Conner about his career, which includes stints leading USDA and the National Council of Farmer Cooperatives. Plus, July is "National Ice Cream Month!" Brooke Williams with American Dairy Association Indiana chats about their upcoming Ice Cream Social fundraiser on July 17th—and how ice cream plays an important role in Indiana's ag economy!

A guide tells us he's proud of the work -- even if survivors are giving it mixed reviews.The legal director for the National Council of Canadian Muslims talks about opening her email to see a video of an attack on a Muslim woman at a pizza parlour in Oshawa, Ontario. A horrifying incident she tells us is, disturbingly, not rare. An inquiry finds British colonizers in Australia committed genocide against Indigenous people. A witness at the commission says reckoning with that past is the first step in moving forward.In response to a growing rat problem, Toronto considers taking a page out of New York City's book -- and appointing a “rat czar" to get the vermin under control.Scientists catalogue the traits that give me -- I mean, someone -- the indefinable yet indisputable quality of “coolness.” And the results are surprisingly conclusive.

There are few people who have the depth and breadth of knowledge about long-term services and supports than Jennie Chin Hansen, who we are honored to have as the 300th guest on today's episode. With a rich background in nursing and a penchant for solving problems, Hansen's career spans decades of leading top healthcare organizations such as the American Geriatrics Society, AARP, and On Lok, which is the flagship/prototype for what is now known as People for All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE). She currently serves on the boards of the Medicare Advantage SCAN Health Plan and HelpAge USA. In 2019, she helped to craft the California Masterplan for Aging, now in implementation.  For this week's episode, Hansen sits down with Susan Ryan to discuss how her childhood experience as an Asian girl living in Boston shaped her career choices. She also discusses her desire to see more upstream work that focuses getting “people prepared for their own aging changes.”  Finally, Hansen shares her vision for what she believes will help to not only “hold the line,” but also move it with regard to ensuring economic security for older Americans. Among Hansen's many awards are the American Academy of Nursing's Health Care Leader Award, American Society on Aging's Hall of Fame Award, and the National Council on Aging's Lifetime Achievement Award.  In 2024, she received an honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters degree from Harvard University at its commencement ceremony in May of 2024.

How the Iran Conflict Exposed the REAL Threat to America https://youtu.be/S2B63_lTl98?si=z-ND6Jlth1SryaMA Glenn Beck 1.49M subscribers 77,278 views Premiered Jun 25, 2025 #zohranmamdani #glennbeck #iran Steve Bannon warned on "The Glenn Beck Program" that "we're already in the beginning of the kinetic part of the Third World War." But is Iran the biggest threat to America, or is the real threat what Iran represents: the political form of Islam that is spreading and the new relationships that have now been exposed among communists, radical leftists, and Islamists? Glenn reveals tape from a Michigan imam who details the real goal of Iran and Islamists: ending Western civilization. It's what Glenn Beck predicted years ago on Fox News. "Globalize the intifada" is no longer a death chant by Hamas jihadis in Gaza; it's now basically the slogan from New York City's Democratic Socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani. The evidence is clear — radical Islamic ideology has spread from the Middle East to Europe and has made a home in America. Wake up. Guests: Alireza Jafarzadeh, deputy director of the U.S. office of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, who personally exposed multiple nuclear sites in Iran. Melanie Phillips, British journalist, broadcaster, and author, who says the term "Islamophobia" is being used to shut down the debate about the Islamist march across the West.

There's no way you can't be happy if you're a Trump voter at this moment in American history. Historic peace achieved perhaps in the Middle East - certainly a dramatic pause at a minimum in a decades long menace to the West from Iran. It appears the Senate is about to get Trump's tax cuts extended, perhaps as early as Friday. And NATO and the global community are stepping up and celebrating if not surrendering to President Trump on his demands for fair trade deals and others paying their fair share for national defense. Not to mention an energy market and school choice for parents around the corner to improve kids' educations. It's a whole lot of winning! Fantastic guests today including Alabama Senator Tommy Tubberville, Power the Future's Daniel Turner, Shahin Gobodi spokesman for the Paris-based People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK).

With compelling insights from her own story and decades of research, Dr. Collier explains how dopamine, brain development, and social pressure collide in the adolescent years. She shares how high-risk behaviors like vaping, binge drinking, and overusing tech can alter executive functioning—and what parents can do to help. From early prevention strategies to family code building, refusal skills, and brain-based praise, this episode offers actionable steps to help your teen thrive. Crystal Collier, PhD, LPC-S, is a therapist, prevention researcher, educator, and author of The NeuroWhereAbouts Guide and Know Your Neuro: Adventures of a Growing Brain children's book series. The Know Your Neuro prevention model was selected for the Prevention and Education Commendation from the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence. Key Takeaways: You can prevent risky behavior—but it takes consistency, brain-based conversations, and setting a clear family code. Starting early (even in 3rd grade) is ideal, but it's never too late to begin. Risky behavior alters brain development. Dopamine surges from vaping, drinking, or pornography can delay or damage the frontal lobe's growth—impacting impulse control, empathy, and decision-making. Refusal skills matter. Teens are more likely to say yes when they haven't rehearsed saying no. Helping your teen develop assertive or even humorous ways to resist peer and social media pressure is critical to their safety and confidence. Let your parenting be grounded in neuroscience—and empower your teen to protect their most valuable asset: their brain.
