Author, Editor, Speaker, Teacher

Leo + Lea, illustrated by Kenard Pak (Scholastic, August 2022)Elbert in the Air, illustrated by Jerome Pumphrey (Dial, February 2023) Holding Silvan: A Brief Life (Hawthorne, named a "Best Book" of 2013)

So… just a quick reminder to check out Monica’s website for more info and a resource or 2 that will help you to extend students’ learning around LEO and LEA’s perspectives.

Also, I’ve included a link to learn more about Jo Boaler, an educator Monica mentioned who’s helped thousands and thousands of young students grow in confidence around mathematics, banishing their math anxiety…

Anxiety, whatever its cause, impacts a child’s sense of self, to one degree or another, which will impact a child’s mindset and interactions… which is one of the many reasons this, the Big Picture Social Emotional Learning podcast has such a wide-armed embrace around various influences and experiences that impact our students’ development.

Jo Boaler is a Professor of Mathematics Education at the Stanford Graduate School of Education, and she has headed up powerfully engaging projects that empower educators, even early childhood educators, with accessible and practical approaches to teaching mathematics. Her website provides tons of free resources: https://www.youcubed.org/ If you’re interested, I highly recommend a conversation Jo Boaler shared with Lex Fridman. Here’s the link.

In a future episode I plan to share more insights about how to develop conversation with young ones, so they have the benefit of gaining skills around expressing their own ideas, about following and exploring topics of interest so that the architecture of their brains can receive the benefit of more fully integrated neural pathways… FASCINATING and important stuff…

Okay ~ until next time. Oh: Instagram!!! It would be great if you’d follow this, the Big Picture Social Emotional Learning podcast, there. Okay, for real: BYE. BYE.

Oooops... sorry... I couldn't include the resource that Monica wanted to share, so now I hope you'll definitely check out her website.
