Declaration address and dream. A gentle reminder . Sunday, March 8, 2015. Why I put my kids in private school. Source: Louisiana Historical Society. A friend tweeted about. In Salon. As a parent who did the opposite, I have a different perspective. We took them out of public school because my students were getting lost. The writer of the Salon article talked about her son getting "lost in the system." She viewed it as something of an aha moment. So did I, but for different reasons. My sons also have had ...

declaration address and dream: February 2015
http://declarationaddressanddream.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Declaration address and dream. A gentle reminder . Thursday, February 19, 2015. An open letter on "American Exceptionalism". Kansas' state motto is Ad Aspera Per Aspera: To the stars through difficulties. Rep. Fisher, I don't think we can get to the stars without being honest in our discussion of our successes and our difficulties. Dear Oklahoma Representative Fisher,. In your state's legislature. So I am asking you, what do you. Mean by American Exceptionalism? What notion do we need to wrestle with?

declaration address and dream: An open sourced education

Declaration address and dream. A gentle reminder . Thursday, February 12, 2015. An open sourced education. Source: The White House. Happy Lincoln's Birthday ya'll. That's not the topic of the post, but part of my thoughts have come from events surrounding Honest Abe. I have been thinking about this idea for some time. What if we ignored all the edumacational stuff and just told kids they were in charge of their education? What if we got out of the way? I keep coming back to the idea of open sourcing.

http://declarationaddressanddream.blogspot.com/2014/12/trivia-crack-and-history-teacher.html
Declaration address and dream. A gentle reminder . Wednesday, December 24, 2014. Trivia Crack and the History Teacher. I withheld as long as I could. After several weeks of hearing about Trivia Crack, I succumbed. If you don't know the app, its Trivial Pursuit. Meets Wheel of Fortune. It is also addictive. I am currently playing about 10 games with friends at the same time. Shock of shocks- my best area is history. Shock of shocks (the sequel)- my worst area is sports, followed closely by science. Now, d...

Declaration address and dream. A gentle reminder . Tuesday, January 6, 2015. Podium Point Seven: Don't get all bent out of shape! How many of us had a mother who cajoled us to, "Stand Up Straight! As a speaker, listen to your mother. It sounds deceptively simple. And it is. However, when you look at the act of speaking, posture is central to success. Standing erect helps with presence, pace, diction and volume. With all the FitBit. Devices out there, it is no surprise that. Ok, so if you are reading this...

Declaration address and dream. A gentle reminder . Tuesday, January 13, 2015. Podium Point Eight: The eyes have it. The eighth podium point is eye contact. Eye contact is all about balance. Too little and you seem disconnected from your audience. Too much and, well, its just skeeves everyone out. The value of eye contact is, well, invaluable. It shows confidence. It shows a connection to the audience. It shows that you are prepared. The power of our eyes can't be denied. Just look at this. Uza Aduba, the...
