Watch The Hauntingly Beautiful Cover of Simon & Garfunkel’s ‘The Sound Of Silence’ By Disturbed

The original of this song is one of my favorites. I know Christina Smith Rodek has a special meaning for the song as well. In order for a cover to be done that I could accept, it would have to be well done and also distinct enough from the original to resonate with me in its own unique way. This version, accompanied by the video, gets that job done perfectly. Watch all the way through!

Why Understanding Student Trauma is More Important Than Teaching ‘Grit’

"If a hypothetical classroom of 30 children were based on current demographics in the United States, this is how the students in that classroom would live: Seven would live in poverty, 11 would be non-white, six wouldn’t speak English as a first language, six wouldn’t be reared by their biological parents, one would be homeless, and six would be victims of abuse." 1. My current colleagues and I don't have to deal with most of this. 2. WAY MORE people, especially kids, are dealing with trauma than most people realize. Even more reason for us to personalize learning and offer young people a safe place to learn, grow, and BE when they come to school. 3. Grit doesn't sound very nice. We don't need more grit. Resilience, maybe. But also, how about kindness, acceptance, and forgiveness? (Toward others and toward self.) Let's teach and model more of that.

Showing Up: The Single Most Important Thing A Friend Can Do

We are too far apart to "show up" for most of the events in each other's lives, but my BFF Smitty (Christina Smith Rodek) has never failed to "show up" at those times when I needed her most. She was with me when I got my first tattoo and through my divorce from my first husband. She spent ALL DAY with me at the funeral home for my Dad's wake and came back with the kids for his funeral. And again when my Mom passed, including a day at my sister's in Mom's last days, even helping us take care of Mom. I have many, many friends. But none is as close to me as this one, or has gone to such lengths to support me in the toughest of times. We have had thousands of belly laughs together, as well. Thank you, Smitty.

6 Reasons to Welcome Refugees after Paris | Foundation for Economic Education

And the number one reason, which isn't explicitly stated here: the gratitude of these people, given a new home and a future, a place to work and thrive and contribute to society, will make them among the most patriotic Americans should they be allowed to come here, become a part of our nation as citizens eventually, and raise their families and many future generations here. History has shown us that when people come to America and are accepted into the fabric of our society, they make us stronger. Come on, America; we are better than the evildoers who put these refugees into this situation.

AP Classes Are a Scam

"To me, the most serious count against Advanced Placement courses is that the AP curriculum leads to rigid stultification -- a kind of mindless genuflection to a prescribed plan of study that squelches creativity and free inquiry. The courses cover too much material and do so too quickly and superficially. In short, AP courses are a forced march through a preordained subject, leaving no time for a high-school teacher to take her or his students down some path of mutual interest. The AP classroom is where intellectual curiosity goes to die." -- from this article

President Obama Drops The "U" Word On The Republican Party

Love this mic drop by Mr. Obama.... “This whole anti-immigrant sentiment that’s out there in our politics right now is contrary to who we are. Because unless you are a Native American, your family came from someplace else,” Mr. Obama said. “Don’t pretend that somehow 100 years ago the immigration process was all smooth and strict. That’s not how it worked.” The grandparents and great-grandparents of politicians taking a hard line on immigration, he said, were also “somehow considered unworthy or uneducated or unwashed.” “When I hear folks talking as if somehow these kids are different from my kids or less worthy in the eyes of God, that somehow they are less worthy of our respect and consideration and care, I think that’s un-American,” Mr. Obama said."
