Is pushing for Memory Master worth it — and what happens if your child doesn't make it? In this episode of the Everyday Educator podcast, host Amy Jones sits down with veteran CC moms Courtney Bradshaw and Tunrade Schumann to talk about how to challenge your kids with Classical Conversations memory work without overwhelming them or pushing too hard. Whether you're aiming for Memory Master, Subject Master, or just want your child to engage more deeply with the Foundations curriculum, this conversation is full of warm, practical wisdom for every homeschool family. Tunrade shares how her family dove headfirst into Memory Master from day one, with all four kids eventually earning the title — and each one also having that one hard year where it didn't quite come together. Those years, she says, turned out to be among the most valuable. Her daughter once went back as a Challenge A student to earn the one cycle she'd missed years earlier, simply because it still mattered to her. Tunrade herself has spent the last two years earning Mom Memory Master alongside her kids, with a third planned as her capstone. Courtney offers a beautifully different perspective — her family never completed community Memory Master, but has celebrated Subject Masters, a "Master Swordsman" scripture challenge, and countless informal moments where the content showed up in unexpected ways: a college Western Civ class, a Challenge speech, a paper. She's candid about the seasons of life — including adopting three children mid-journey — that meant mom simply wasn't available, and why that's okay. The conversation turns practical in the back half, with both moms sharing specific tips: starting with six weeks of consistent daily review, using CDs and flip books for independent study, leveraging Christmas break to tackle early weeks, pairing up with another Memory Master family for accountability and fun, and tailoring review methods to each child's learning style. Motivation strategies include review game parties, community check-ins, and Tunrade's beloved family tradition: a full week of unlimited screen time after Memory Master — which, she notes, usually loses its charm by day two. The episode closes with a reminder that the real reward isn't the blue shirt. It's a child who knows how they learn, trusts their own mind, and isn't afraid of hard things. What You'll Learn: - The full Memory Master continuum — from Subject Master all the way to the National Memory Master Contest - How two experienced CC families approached Memory Master very differently — and both thrived - Why the hidden benefits of Memory Master have almost nothing to do with memorization - What to do when life gets hard and Memory Master just isn't happening this year - Practical, age-by-age tips for making memory work fun (trampolines, hopscotch, hand motions & more) - How to use Christmas break strategically to get ahead on proofs - Creative ways to celebrate and motivate kids through the February doldrums - Why kids who earn Memory Master aren't scared of hard things later in life - How Tunrade earned Mom Memory Master — and why Courtney is already eyeing it for her last round   This episode of Everyday Educator is sponsored by: Summit Ministries Do you want your child to have conversations that challenge, encouragement that endure, and friends and faith for life?

Hey, hey teacher friends! Today we're taking same ol' same ol' review games and putting a different twist on them. In today's episode we are exploring Plickers. Plickers isn't as hybrid friendly as the past resources have been, but it's still lots of fun to implement in your classrooms. And, with the world getting back to normal, I know some of you are looking for some in person joy again as well. I also have an announcement. If you are visual - like me - you may prefer to see each of these resources rather than hear about them. I am currently creating video tutorials for each edtech tool that is mentioned in this Online Teaching Tool Swap series. The space will be limited for this series, and my email list is always the first to know. Make sure you don't miss out by going to onlineteacherallyson.com/swap. This will not only get you on my email list, but it will also get you the PDF file with each edtech resource mentioned...and you will get to see the topic of episode 5 right away.
