In his book You Are What You Love, James K. A. Smith writes, “It is crucial for us to recognize that our ultimate loves, longings, desires, and cravings are learned.” He also says, “Because if you are what you love, and if love is a virtue, then love is a habit.” The things that make us who we are—the things we love, long for, and desire—don't happen by chance or accident. They happen by practice. Listen in as Dr. Preston Atwood and Sarah McLean discuss the merits of liturgy in the school day—the how, what, when, and why. https://hymnworks.com/product/cantate/

Coordinator with the UF Safe Kids Coalition, Jordyn Zyngier, detailed the Ride To School safety event Tuesday May 6th at the High Springs Community School campus.

In this episode, we tackle a common challenge from teachers: how to incorporate social-emotional learning into an already packed curriculum. Marie Goulet, LCSW, shares her "Yes, and" approach - acknowledging that while dedicated SEL sessions are valuable, teachers are already implementing these skills throughout their day. Marie offers practical, no-cost strategies that take just 1-2 minutes, including the "five, four, three, two, one" sensory grounding technique, proper breathing methods, somatic movement exercises, and bilateral movements that engage the brain differently. She explains the hand model of the brain to understand emotional regulation and the concept of "flipping your lid" in child-friendly terms. Marie emphasizes the power of visual supports as permanent reminders that work for all age groups and discusses how to help kids identify which regulation strategies work best for them. The episode concludes with Marie's powerful mantras for building resilience, including "it's okay to be uncomfortable" and focusing on the "size of the problem."About Marie Goulet:Marie is an LCSW who works as the lead social worker for New Lenox School District #122, as well as the building social worker for Oakview Intermediate School. She's been a school social worker in both community mental health and school settings for over 20 years. Throughout her professional tenure, Marie has served many roles, including Assistant Director of Special Education and principal of an alternative high school. Her true passion is providing direct service to students and families. Marie has an extensive background working with mental health, specifically targeting trauma, anxiety, and intensive student behaviors.Thank you for listening to the Raising Resilient Kids Podcast!  We are a brother-sister team who are passionate about providing parents, teachers and coaches with ideas and strategies to help kids and teens build their resilience and achieve their potential in a healthy, fulfilling way. For more information on the podcast, or if you have a question you would like answered by one of our expert guests, please visit us at - https://www.smarthwp.com/raisingresilientkidspodcast. A special thanks to our sponsors: The So Happy You're Here YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/@sohappyyouarehere and The Resilient Youth Teach-the-Teacher Program - https://www.smarthwp.com/RY4teachers

THCC Husk Speaker: Bex White Sermon Recorded on: 23/03/2025 Main Passage: Luke 6:12-26 Reflection: Have you got any big decisions to make? What can you learn from how Jesus made this important decision? What tone of voice do you hear Jesus using as He lists these blessings and woes? If this sounds like bad news for you, do you think you might be mis-hearing Him? What difference does it make that Jesus Himself experienced all of the troubles that He describes here - poverty, hunger, grief and being hated? Are you confident in being on Team Jesus? What difference does that make?

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for December 29, 2024 is: linchpin • LINCH-pin • noun Linchpin, sometimes spelled lynchpin, literally refers to a locking pin inserted crosswise, as at the end of an axle or shaft. In figurative use, linchpin refers to a person or thing that serves to hold together parts or elements that exist or function as a unit; such a linchpin is often understood as the most important part of a complex situation or system. // Investors are betting that the new product line will be the linchpin that secures the company's place in the very competitive market in the years and decades to come. See the entry > Examples: “When people tell the story of my life, when I tell this story of my life, Trisha doesn't get much space, but she is a linchpin. For me the linchpin is that tiny bit of aid that holds things together when they might otherwise fall apart that keeps you rolling down the road to where you were already going. It's not the engine, it's not the track. It's invisible but in the moment essential help.” — Alice Randall, My Black Country: A Journey Through Country Music's Black Past, Present, and Future, 2024 Did you know? In his 1857 novel, Tom Brown's School Days, Thomas Hughes describes the “cowardly” custom of “taking the linch-pins out of the farmers' and bagmens' gigs at the fairs.” The linchpin in question held the wheel on the carriage, and removing it made it likely that the wheel would come off as the vehicle moved. Such a pin was called a lynis in Old English; Middle English speakers added pin to form lynspin. By the early 20th century, English speakers were using linchpin for anything as critical to a complex situation as a linchpin is to a wagon, as when Winston Churchill, in 1930, wrote of Canada and the role it played in the relationship between Great Britain and the United States, that “no state, no country, no band of men can more truly be described as the linchpin of peace and world progress.”

During the Policy Committee's December 2 meeting, board members discussed a draft policy that would require personal electronic devices to be “off and away” during the school day, including lunchtime and in hallways, “so that the device cannot disrupt students or the learning environment.” During Monday's discussion, board members said many educators support clear and enforceable restrictions on cell phone use. They cited learning disruptions, technology addiction, and students cutting classes to be on their phones. School staff who testified in support of a phone-free school day described their experiences with class interruptions and behavior-related safety problems. Board member Patte Sullivan said, “Of all the emails I've received [from teachers], nothing…has said we don't want restrictions. They really want restrictions. They want to teach.” Sometimes freedom requires saying “no” to one thing to say “yes” to something that's more important. Unrestricted use of electronic devices at school has degraded the academic environment and students' social experiences. Setting limits on technology use will help give students the freedom to focus on what's more valuable and important. Creating distance between students and screens would put the focus back on learning, which is what school is all about.

Starting the school day doesn't have to be chaotic or rushed. In this episode, I'll explore how soft starts are transforming classrooms by offering a calm, low-pressure beginning that allows students to ease into their day. Soft starts accomplish more than just setting a calm tone—they're a powerful tool for promoting social-emotional learning and giving kids the autonomy they need to feel in control of their learning, fostering self-regulation, self-direction, and self-management. I'll break down why this approach is beneficial (and super simple to implement!) for all age groups, from elementary to secondary students, and share practical ways to implement it in your classroom. Soft starts don't require a monumental shift in your daily routine, but provide a powerful opportunity to create a foundation of calm, focus, and connection that will ripple through every lesson.  If you want your students to learn how to gauge their own needs and choose activities at the beginning of class that help meet those needs so they're prepared to learn, soft starts might be the perfect option.

Series: Edible Schoolyards   Episode Description: “School meals are part of the education day.” —Betsy Rosenbluth   For far too long, the school lunchroom has been the butt of jokes and the source of dread for students and parents alike. Mention the words "cafeteria food" and visions of limp, gray mystery meat and rock-hard tater tots immediately come to mind. This pervasive stigma has reduced the lunchroom to a place where kids simply have to get through the meal as quickly as possible before rushing off to their next class.   By changing the culture and elevating the dining experience, we can empower students to see the cafeteria as an extension of the classroom, where they can learn about nutrition, explore new flavors, and take pride in the food that fuels their growing bodies and minds.   This week, we hear how we can transform the lunch room into a place of nourishment, community, and joy with Betsy Rosenbluth. Betsy is the Farm to School Director at Shelburne Farms, a nonprofit organization on a 1400-acre working farm in Vermont. For the past 10 years, Betsy has been spearheading efforts to expand farm-to-school programming across Vermont and support a national movement to transform the school food system.   Stay tuned as Justine and Betsy talk about the importance of tailoring programs to local needs, overcoming supply chain challenges, empowering students to make informed choices about their food, the benefits of building partnerships, and how farm-to-school programs are inspiring long-term impacts.  Connect with Betsy:  Betsy is Co-Director of Vermont FEED, a nationally recognized farm-to-school partnership program of the Northeast Organic Farming Association of Vermont and Shelburne Farms. Betsy also coordinates the Vermont Farm to School & Early Childhood Network and the Northeast Farm to School Collaborative and serves on the Advisory Board of the National Farm to School Network.   Prior to joining Shelburne Farms, Betsy helped establish the Burlington School Food Project and Education for Sustainability programs in Burlington schools. She also helped Vermont FEED draft and pass Vermont's first Farm to School bill and grant program. She led the effort to create a Lake Champlain museum on Burlington's waterfront with a nationally recognized youth employment program. Most recently, Betsy was Director of Projects and Interim Director at the Orton Family Foundation with a focus on community planning, development, and engagement in small cities and towns.    Website Facebook X  Instagram   Connect with NextGen Purpose: Website Facebook Instagram  LinkedIn YouTube Episode Highlights: 01:06 Mission: Educate and Cultivate  06:38 Tailoring Programs to Communities 11:30 Getting Schools' Attention 15:34 Getting Funding and the Importance of Partnerships 18:31 Incorporating Values 22:45 Celebrating Food Through Cooking Competitions  26:37 Empowering Kids to Try New Things
