Recharge 17: Self-Preservation

Welcome to 2019. We are glad to be back recording our podcast. It's a new year with new interests and familiar responsibilities. It's important to prioritize your life and the work you do this new year. Do what you love. Make time for those things that are most important. Get recharged for the new year! 

Recharge 16: Priorities

It saddens me that two more school shootings happened before I could publish this podcast about recent gun violence in schools. Here are our thoughts on teaching to "gun violence kids"--students who have lived with the threat of gun violence since they started school. If you teach middle school or high school, most of your students have practiced lock down drills and talked about "active shooters" since they were in early elementary school. We find this to be very tragic. 

Recharge 15: Facilitating Difficult Conversations Around Gun Violence

Megan Gross--California Teacher of the Year and Final Four National Teacher of the Year--joins us again to discuss social justice for our SPED and EL students. Inclusion for these kids is imperative. We must be deliberate with our planning and respond with urgency.

We are honored to have Megan Gross--the 2017 California Teacher of the Year and National Final Four Teacher of the Year--join us to talk about creating inclusive culture in a classroom and in a school. You will be inspired and recharged by the stories of acceptance and compassion. 

Recharge 13: Creating Inclusive Culture Based on Safety, Support, and Belonging

Life is about setting goals. You set a goal and reach it. Then, you set a new goal. We need a vision, however, to know what goals we need to set. Once we have a vision for what we want, we can focus on getting there. Students need to learn this, too. Start with a vision. Use the vision to set up a series of goals. Finally, identify the action steps to help you reach each goal.

Recharge 12: Vision and Goals for the New Year

Episode 11 is a great way to finish the 2017 school year. We are tired. We are ready for break.
