Podcasts about Sheltered

In Episode 209 of the Equipping ELLs podcast, Beth Vaucher tackles one of the most widely trained-on and least consistently implemented concepts in ELL education: sheltered instruction. Most ELL teachers — and many homeroom teachers — have heard the term, sat through the professional development, maybe even have the SIOP books on their shelves. But there is a significant gap between schools that claim to implement sheltered instruction and classrooms where ELL students are actually accessing grade-level content the way the framework was designed to make possible. This episode closes that gap.Beth opens with a scene every ELL teacher will recognize — a fifth grade science lesson on ecosystems where the teacher has a word wall, speaks slowly, uses images on slides, and gives students a graphic organizer. All good things. And yet at the end of the lesson her ELL students still do not know what an ecosystem is or what a food chain does. The teacher would say she used sheltered instruction. And she is not wrong — she used some sheltered techniques. But what she delivered was not truly sheltered instruction. That distinction, Beth explains, is exactly what this episode is about.Sheltered instruction is not one technique. It is not a word wall or a graphic organizer or slowing down your rate of speech. It is a comprehensive set of intentional practices that work together across every part of a lesson — from planning to opening to content delivery to interaction to assessment. The most widely researched framework is the SIOP model, developed by Jana Echevarria, MaryEllen Vogt, and Deborah Short, and Beth encourages teachers to go deeper with their books and trainings. But today the focus is on the components most commonly missing in real classrooms.Component one is content objectives and language objectives — the single most impactful and most commonly skipped element. Beth shares her own experience of dreading the question from her principal about language objectives and explains why that discomfort was actually pointing to a gap that matters enormously. A content objective tells students what they will learn. A language objective tells students how they will use language to demonstrate that learning. Without a language objective, ELL students have no vehicle into the lesson — no specific words, structures, or academic phrases to practice using. With one, every student knows not just the destination but the road. Beth also notes that AI tools now make writing differentiated language objectives far more accessible than they were even a few years ago.Component two is building background knowledge — a step that gets skipped most often when time is short. Beth pushes back on the assumption that ELL students are blank slates and makes the case that they come with rich knowledge from their home cultures and languages that teachers can activate and connect to new content. A lesson about the American Revolution might connect to a war in a student's home country. A lesson about ecosystems might connect to a student's experience of nature in a different context. That activation — in any language — reduces cognitive load and opens the door to learning.Component three is comprehensible input in every lesson. Building on the second language acquisition theory from Episode 206, Beth explains that this goes far beyond speaking slowly. It means visuals that carry meaning rather than just decorate, graphic organizers that structure thinking without removing it, chunked instruction with processing time at each step, and intentional vocabulary selection — teaching students how to solve unknown words rather than just covering a weekly list.Component four is meaningful interaction — the component Beth identifies as most commonly missing from lessons that technically include sheltered techniques. Sheltered instruction is not a passive experience. ELL students acquire language and content through actually using language — in pairs, in small groups, in structured protocols like think-pair-share and numbered heads. The key word is structured. Not just talk to your partner but use the sentence frame, use the vocabulary, make a claim and support it with evidence.Beth closes with a seven-question self-audit — honest, compassionate, and actionable — and a direct call to ELL teachers to be the expert who spreads this knowledge to homeroom teachers, not through correction but through modeling, co-teaching, and sharing resources.FREE CHALLENGE: Join the live five-day ELL challenge at equippingells.com/challenge or DM the word CHALLENGE to @EquippingELLs on Instagram.

Latest Update: Hundreds of Malawians Sheltered at Sherwood Hall in Durban by Radio Islam

Sheltered, undisturbed plants may grow fast and even tall, but the result is a weak, fragile, and easily uprooted plant. By contrast, plants exposed to rain, wind, and the occasional disturbance grow strong, stable, and sturdy. Your soul works the same way.In this opening sermon of our summer series through the letter of James, we walk through James 1:1–18 and the old wisdom he himself leans into: that the trials we face are not meant to destroy us, but to activate and strengthen what has been given to us. We consider why the testing of faith produces steadfastness, what it means to ask God for wisdom without a divided soul, why the life resourced by appearances withers like grass, and the crucial difference between a trial and a temptation — one external, one a heart unsubmitted. Faith does its work not in one dramatic moment but over many ordinary ones, completing us — maturing us toward our purposed end — because what God starts in history and in us, he finishes in history through us.Questions for Reflection:James contends that the disturbances of life help ensure our maturation and completion. Where in your daily relations and responsibilities might God be activating and purifying your faith right now?When something hard hits, is your first instinct to face it as a trial that strengthens, or to read it as God against you? What would it look like to "count it all joy"?Where are you living divided — "double-souled" — tossed between believing and not believing? What wisdom do you need to ask God for, without doubting?Scripture References: James 1:1–18; Psalm 63:1–8; Proverbs 24:16; Acts 2:36; 1 Thessalonians 4:11–12; Psalm 1:3Voices/Quotes: Douglas Moo Commentary on James; John Calvin Commentary on the Catholic Epistles; Keith McCurdy Raising Sturdy Kids; Jonathan Haidt The Anxious GenerationSermon Notes & Liturgy | James: Faith at WorkChrist City Church gathers every Sunday at 10:10 AM at 642 Brookhurst Dr., Dallas, TX 75218; in the chapel at LHB. Come rest in Jesus.

“Five minutes out of the wind while walking along the Kent coastline.”

King David, wrote the Twenty-Third Psalm, a classic and enduring affirmation of his confidence in the LORD during a very straitened and stressful time in his own life.  While consisting of only six stanzas and one hundred fifteen words, the reach and relevance of the Twenty Third psalm spans generations of believers who have been encouraged by this profound pastoral portrait.  In stanza five, David acknowledges that he is living a sheltered life.  Because “the LORD is our Shepherd”, this type of life is the birthright and blessing of every child of God.  This message shares why!

The Story of Sri Buddha – From Prince to the Enlightened OneThis episode tells the timeless story of Sri Buddha, the great teacher who transformed human thought with compassion and wisdom.Born as Prince Siddhartha to King Śuddhodana and Queen Māyā, his birth itself was surrounded by divine signs and prophecies. Sheltered within palace walls from sorrow and suffering, the young prince lived a life of luxury—until a series of encounters changed his destiny forever.Moved by the realities of old age, illness, and death, Siddhartha renounced his royal life in search of truth. His long journey through asceticism, doubt, and inner struggle finally led him to sit beneath the Bodhi Tree, where, after a night of deep meditation, he attained Enlightenment and became the Buddha — the Awakened One.This episode explores his birth, renunciation, awakening, and the moment when compassion replaced desire, and wisdom replaced fear—marking the beginning of a path that would guide millions toward peace and liberation.

For as long as he can remember, the writer and illustrator Aidan Meighan has been inspired by Nature. His early exploits might not have been entirely welcomed by those around him — collecting and storing slugs and snails in a cupboard at school, and stashing a dead adder in a drawer at his parents' home — but they paved the way for a career illustrating the beauty of the natural world, both in words and pictures.Subscribe to the Country Life podcast on Apple PodcastsSubscribe to the Country Life podcast on SpotifySubscribe to the Country Life podcast on AudibleWe're delighted, then, that with his new book The Folklore of Trees about to appear, Aidan came to join James Fisher on the Country Life Podcast. He talks about some of the 36 varieties of tree that he discusses in his book, the creative freedom of working as both writer and illustrator on a project, and how trees have left their mark on human history — not least in the form of the hill in Rome that owes its existence to the Ancient Roman habit of discarding empty olive oil containers. 'We absolutely could not survive without trees,' says Aidan, 'but trees would easily prosper, if not flourish, without us.. They're like guardians, arboreal guardians, to us, and I really think we ought to show them respect.'

Hello Beautiful, I'm so grateful you're here with me.

Sorry for the delay in releasing this audio. Computer issues!Anyway, Sheltered is a post-apocalyptic survival management game where you guide a family taking refuge in an underground bunker after a global catastrophe. You manage resources like food, water, and shelter integrity while scavenging the wasteland, crafting equipment, and fending off threats. The game focuses heavily on tough moral choices, long-term survival, and the emotional weight of protecting your family in a harsh world.

In this episode, we walk through how Nazi war criminals like Josef Mengele, Adolf Eichmann, and Klaus Barbie escaped Europe through ratlines, built new lives in places like Argentina and Bolivia, and were sometimes protected or even used by Western intelligence during the Cold War. We also dig into newly uncovered Argentine court archives and propaganda crates from 1941 to show how long governments sat on these secrets, and what that means for how we think about justice, state power, and so-called “useful monsters” today.

Romans 10:9

In this meeting, the group reflected on God's gentle leadership, the role of prayer, and the value of trusting His timing. They explored protection in fellowship, spiritual encouragement during warfare, and how God prepares each person personally—whether gathered or scattered. The conversation highlighted Christ-centered unity, personal investment in the assembly, and the beauty of being kept by God's power. Practical needs like health issues and family prayers brought us to a close with heartfelt intercession.Themes:Stirring prayer and reflection on prophecyTrusting God's slow and steady workRefuge and protection in the local assemblyOvercoming technical and spiritual challengesGod's power to keep us—even in solitudeChrist-centered unity and the cost of spiritual growthFamily intercession and mutual support in trialsScripture References: Isaiah 40:11; Isaiah 59:19; Song of Solomon 8:7; 1 John 3:18–20; 1 Peter 1:5

[Psalm 91] The shelter we need is not a place it is a person

Steven and Shaun tackle the big questions this week—from being trapped in a recliner to debating whether sheltered workshops for disabled people still have value. Plus, listener emails spark deep dives into Braille, inclusion, and how technology can both help and hinder.In this episode of Double Tap, Steven shares his comical ordeal of being stuck in an electric recliner during a power outage—complete with melting KitKats and home automation chaos. Shaun adds his own take on tech dependency and heatwave fashion choices.The conversation shifts into more serious territory as they respond to listener emails. Doug Lawlor reignites the Braille literacy debate, emphasizing the value of combining Braille and screen reader skills. Steven and Shaun unpack the pros and cons of teaching Braille later in life, the barriers to adoption, and accessibility challenges in public spaces like cruise ships and toilets.Later, a message from Raheem in Ireland about sheltered workshops in Kenya sparks a meaningful discussion about employment, inclusion, and whether creating dedicated workspaces for disabled people might offer purpose and community—especially when mainstream systems fall short.Steven ends with a powerful call for blind leadership in blindness organizations, questioning why inclusion often seems to exclude the very people it aims to support.Chapters00:00 - Introduction00:30 - Shaun's incredible trousers02:28 - Steven's power dilemma07:51 - Should blind people buy bulbs?15:26 - Listener Doug talks about braille literacy31:52 - Listener Mickey likes our newsletter33:12 - Listener Raheem discusses the value of blind workshops in Kenya55:08 - Rumours of new style Meta frames coming soon Find Double Tap online: YouTube, Double Tap Website---Follow on:YouTube: https://www.doubletaponair.com/youtubeX (formerly Twitter): https://www.doubletaponair.com/xInstagram: https://www.doubletaponair.com/instagramTikTok: https://www.doubletaponair.com/tiktokThreads: https://www.doubletaponair.com/threadsFacebook: https://www.doubletaponair.com/facebookLinkedIn: https://www.doubletaponair.com/linkedin Subscribe to the Podcast:Apple: https://www.doubletaponair.com/appleSpotify: https://www.doubletaponair.com/spotifyRSS: https://www.doubletaponair.com/podcastiHeadRadio: https://www.doubletaponair.com/iheart About Double TapHosted by the insightful duo, Steven Scott and Shaun Preece, Double Tap is a treasure trove of information for anyone who's blind or partially sighted and has a passion for tech.

I was out of the country, and my wife was visiting her father, along with our daughter and son-in-law. My wife convinced her dad to hike with them back into the woods to see the spring where they used to go to get water when she was a little girl. That spring gushing from the rocks, just beneath a cave above it. They spent a few minutes exploring and then they headed back. That night our son-in-law pulled out the video that he'd shot of their little expedition. As the picture panned past that darkened cave, he stopped the video and rewound it to get a closer look. And there, gleaming in the darkness, were the two eyes of a big cat - as in panther or cougar. They had not seen that cat - they had been exploring right beneath that cat - and they never knew the danger they were in. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "The Secret of Staying Safe." I wonder how many of those you and I have had in our lives; the things that could have hurt us or destroyed us that we never knew about - the cats that never pounced. In an increasingly dangerous world, isn't it great to know that you are under that kind of protection? Paul wrote about that security in our word for today from the Word of God in 2 Timothy 4:17-18. He said, "I was delivered from the lion's mouth. The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom." Now there is a pretty powerful antidote to fear! The Lord is going to rescue me from every threat, except one - the one that's designed to take me home, right on time. That's right on time according to the life plan He made for me before there was a me. That doesn't mean we don't take precautions, the ones that God directs us to. Paul often continued to preach boldly, even when he knew there were forces who wanted to kill him in the city. But other times he left town quickly or sneaked out of the city in a basket. When Nehemiah and his workers were threatened, he said, "We prayed to our God and we posted a guard day and night" (Nehemiah 4:9). Now, look! Our faith is not in that guard but in our God. But sometimes God chooses to protect us through practical steps that He asks us to take. But ultimately we're safe because Almighty God is watching over us. In just six verses in Psalm 121, it says "The Lord watches over you" five times! It concludes by saying, "The Lord will keep you from all harm - He will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore." So, when is the last time you praised the Lord for all those cats that never pounced? For all those times you've been delivered from danger and never even knew it! Wait 'till we watch the video in heaven. I think we're going to be amazed at what could have happened that didn't! By the way, something amazing happens when we finally come to the end of trying to make it to God our own way, and understand that God had to come for us in the person of His Son, Jesus. And the only way that the sin that keeps me out of heaven could be paid for was by His Son dying for me. See, we're totally not safe. We will never be safe forever. We will pay the price for the sin against the God that put us here unless that sin is forgiven by the only One who can, and that's the One who died to pay its penalty. That's God's Son, Jesus. What happens when we put our life in His hands is for the first time in your life and finally and forever you are safe in the arms of the Savior. Have you ever given yourself to Him? Let this be the day. Open your heart to Him. Tell Him, "I'm Yours, Jesus." Go to our website and find out how - ANewStory.com. When our kids were little, we used to put them to sleep every night singing a little chorus: "Safe am I, safe am I, in the hollow of His hand. Sheltered o'er, sheltered o'er, with His love forevermore. No ill can harm me, no foe alarm me, for He keeps both day and night. Safe am I, in the hollow of His hand." If that's where you are, you're really safe forever. If you've never put your life in Jesus' hands, come home. It's safe there. {module Open a chat window - needhim}

Not even in the darkest pit can a follower of God be lost. Corrie ten Boom knew this to be true and God’s word affirms how we can never hide from the Lord’s all seeing eye.
