Guest: Dr. Jeremiah Johnston, Dean of Spiritual Development at PCA and Associate Pastor of Apologetics & Cultural Engagement at Prestonwood Baptist Church   To learn more about the impact of the Dobbs decision, check out this article from The Ethics and Religious Liberties Commission of the Southern Baptist Commission called “What Christians Should Know About Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization.”   The Faith Integration Planner is part of the PCA faculty training initiative to train our instructional staff how to integrate their faith and God's Word into their lessons plans from PreK-12th grade and in every subject and activity!   Faith training begins in the home. Parents need to lead the way by modeling a vibrant and growing faith setting the example for children to follow. PCA is committed to equipping and empowering parents to live out their dynamic and authentic faith and pass on their legacy of faith from generation to generation! Faith integration is most powerful when all three legs of the proverbial stool - the home, the church, and the school - are working together, creating a synergy of faith and a concert of Christian voices speaking truth and encouragement to students.   Dr. Johnston has some recommendations for parents: Listen to and share The Journey podcast each week - share it with other parents at PCA and with parents who don't have kids at PCA - they need to be equipped with the truth as well! Get connected and involved with as many things happening at PCA and the life of your students. Middle School parents especially should be looking to connect with their students during the Pride of Brothers and Society of Sisters opportunities. Also, ask your students about chapel topics, what they learned, and how you as a family can integrate those biblical truths into your family!

EPISODE 154| Part two of THE ADVENTURE OF HOMESCHOOLOING PRE-K-12TH: PART ONE. Why do you homeschool? There are any number of answers to that question and sometimes homeschooling comes before or after a bout with public school and at times homeschooling co-exists with public schooling. Does the idea of homeschooling feel daunting?

This belief has allowed her to create and share hundreds of quality printable resources, travel the country with a renowned math teacher, and serve as chairperson on her local library board (in addition to homeschooling and doing her best to cook and clean too.) She lives with her little family, mini Aussie, bearded dragon, massively fluffy cat, and mixed terrier in the middle of Kansas.

Definuj si svoje pravidlá. Ži podľa nich.Takto by sa dal preložiť výrok jedného z popredných predstaviteľov stoicizmu, Epiktéta. Stoicizmus, tento inšpiratívny filozofický prúd v poslednom čase zažíva akúsi renesanciu a objavuje ho stále viac ľudí. Nepochybne má na tom zásluhu aj americký autor Ryan Holiday, ktorý o stoicizme a jeho myšlienkach napísal viacero kníh, ktoré sa stali svetovými bestsellermi (napr. Ego je nepriateľ, či Prekážka je cesta - vyšli aj v slovenčine), nahráva o ňom podcast, či píše blogy. A jeden z jeho blogov (tento) sa stal inšpiráciou aj pre môj podcast. Ryan v tom blogu totiž na jedno miesto naukladal 50 jednoduchých pravidiel, ktoré vychádzajú z myšlienok stoicizmu, a ktoré by mali slúžiť ako návod pre dobrý život. Dnes ti prinášam prvú polovicu. Daj mi vedieť, ktoré z pravidiel ťa najviac zaujali.Priniesol ti tento podcast niečo hodnotné? Namotivoval ťa k niečomu, čo si dlho odkladal/a alebo ťa prinútil zamyslieť sa nad tým kým si a kým môžeš byť?Ak áno, prosím pozdieľaj to s niekým vo svojom okolí. Možno aj on/ona práve teraz potrebuje nakopnúť, inšpirovať, povzbudiť. Spolu tak môžeme doslova meniť svet. Možno nie celú planétu, ale celý svet jednému človeku. Za tých pár sekúnd to stojí, no nie?www.zlepsujsa.sk

As Head Start approaches its 60th year, federal funding for the pre-kindergarten program remains well short of what it would take to cover the number of children eligible. Now, it is among the proposed budget cuts on the table as Congress works to avoid a shutdown. There's evidence Head Start provides a life-long boost for Native children, but its future is in doubt in Alaska and some other places where the potential need is greatest.

Almost Blown Away (Pre-K Final Version) by Rock Band Land

This edWeb podcast is sponsored by Capit Learning.The edLeader Panel recording can be accessed here.For years, schools have predominantly focused on a core ELA curriculum complemented by an intervention program. However, mounting evidence suggests this approach has been less effective than anticipated. Many schools are shifting their focus and implementing a dedicated core phonics curriculum that seamlessly complements their existing ELA framework.Transitioning to a preventive model can pave the way for a more robust, comprehensive literacy foundation. Ensuring students receive essential phonics instruction early on significantly reduces the need for later interventions, translating into better student outcomes and more efficient resource allocation.

This Day in Maine for Thursday, November 2nd, 2023.

Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), is an economic theory that allows unlimited government spending financed by deficits and debt. However, MMT leads to high taxes, high-interest rates and lower growth. High government debt crowds out private investment, which is critical to production and growth. MMT and related policies of the federal government have also led to bank failures such as the Silicon Valley Bank.In this lecture, Bob Luddy explained the financial and economic underpinnings of MMT and why this economic theory causes more disastrous consequences the more we act on it.Bob Luddy is the founder of Thales Academy and the President of CaptiveAire Systems, a leading manufacturer of commercial kitchen ventilation equipment. In 2007, Bob opened Thales Academy, a network of private schools offering a high-quality Pre-K-12 education at affordable tuition. The Luddy Schools are quickly growing, with over 5,000 students enrolled throughout North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia.Bob is an avid supporter of entrepreneurs and the free market system, and published his book, “Entrepreneurial Life: The Path from Startup to Market Leader,” in 2018. This lecture was delivered live at the Fall Classical Summit, a regional classical conference held at Thales Academy Rolesville Junior High-High School on October 6, 2023.Interested in teaching at Thales Academy?

This edWeb podcast is sponsored by Lexia Learning.The edLeader Panel recording can be accessed here.Emergent bilingual students need different academic supports and structures than their monolingual peers, and many educators have to rely on instructional models designed for students who already speak English—leading to a disconnect for our ELL students. Ensuring all emergent bilingual and multilingual students have access to a quality education first requires defining what that education looks like.Lexia Learning's Cassandra Wheeler (Director of LETRS State Success) and Breanna Guzman (Senior Language Product Specialist) with Dr. Linda Cavazos (Executive Director of ELLAS Consulting) and Martha Hernandez (Executive Director of Californians Together) broke down what a quality education for emergent bilinguals looks like, diving deeper into how second languages are learned, where and how that learning occurs, and how teachers themselves learn and develop as expert professionals.In this session, listeners gain understanding of the value oral discourse brings to literacy learning, how to implement effective ELD practices across districts, schools, and classrooms, and useful resources for creating language frames on a practical level.This edWeb podcast is of interest to PreK-12 teachers, ELL and ESOL specialists, librarians, school and district leaders, and education technology leaders.This edWeb podcast is part of Emergent Bilingual Week: A New Era in Multilingualism.This five-day event, October 23rd – 27th was designed to inspire educators and leaders in service of our 5 million+ multilingual students across the country.

Prek vedeževalcev in vedeževalk (shoutout Maruča) pridemo do radijske oddaje ŽVPL in tiste dolge poti na Unije, kjer se je zgodilo, kar se je zgodilo.

Če tega nočete, ne berite zapiskov spodaj. Bili ste ste opozorjeni.
