Everything is applicable if you make it applicable. That’s something I said at lunch today on a Zoom with friends, and it gelled with me enough to sit and discuss what it meant. We can teach lessons, or mini-lessons from the metaphors of our own experiences. Tavis talks about working in mindfulness at the end of the day. 10 minutes in, Danny talks about “being the calm” for students during periods of upheaval. We discuss how to bring balance and depth to your classroom. Bonding over common interest can also be helpful. We also break down the composting method of teaching, and making your own fun.

Some classes may see students benefit from homework more than others. Danny Hauger switched to a 3-2-1 system in middle School and High School classrooms for Social Studies to better account for student achievement, success, time balance, and daily documentation of what was learned each day. In this video, Danny talks about how ditching daily homework benefitted his students and his relationships to studying history. It doesn’t mean doing less work, it just means doing more in class time. This process gets students working at the bell, saves them time for other work, social life, jobs, etc, and enable you to collect periodically for scoring or checking in with student progress and gives a great keepsake of the history that transpired all year long!

Becky Schnekser is a certified amazing science teacher, and a National Geographic-supported science professional, as well as one terrific classroom teacher who doesn’t hold her learning to the confines of the classroom walls. Becky just signed a deal with Dave Burgess Consulting to release her first book, which will be stellar, and you can follow up with her at expeditionschnekser.com  and on Twitter @Schnekser, she’s a returning champion on our show, Also on episodes 21 and 40 of Inspiring Teachers. Becky discusses the three sisters - beans, corn, squash, and her love of the outdoors. 

Becky joins us alongside Fidel Salamanca to discuss trees, gardening, grafting, and research in the field of botany and natural sciences. Fidel Salamanca has had a lot of success in backyard gardening. Fidel will be explaining the two types of grafting he is familiar with and has used: stick grafting and bud grafting. He has also prepared a sample of each to demonstrate how the grafts should look/fit together. Whether it be disease resistance, strength, or preferred qualities, grafting can be a neat way of experimenting. 

Fidel has created a wonderful variety of goods. So many teachers over this summer break have turned to gardening, indoor or outdoor, as a hobby, or something more. 

This is the case for our host, Danny Hauger, who never had shown interest in gardening before this time at home and shelter in place.
