Learning out loud about how learning really happens
Exploring homeschooling, curiosity, and the everyday moments that shape learning

NWS Nashville has upgraded our Heat Advisory to an Extreme Heat Warning that goes thru Sunday evening. Heat index values will be as high as 112° each afternoon. Please take precautions against the heat, especially if you have any outdoor plans this weekend.

Early literacy is not early reading.

Nurturing everyday moments and language-rich experiences during the first years of life helps children build the skills they'll need to succeed. That's why we're excited to launch Word Wonders: https://t.co/p1EltEJmLW

7/28 We've been talking about today for a little while now. Hottest temperatures of the week along with dangerous heat index values. Please take it easy.

@HippyMomPhD An important perspective! We raised our 18-year-old with a strong foundation of general skepticism. Now he uses that exact mindset to argue that students shouldn't leverage AI until they have a complete, independent understanding of the content it’s assisting them with. 🤷‍♀️🙄

Learning doesn’t just happen sitting still. It happens through movement, play, curiosity, creativity, and challenge. That’s why I’m excited about The Curve’s partnership with Play Glow Up Sports this fall. #LearningThroughPlay

I found an old photo today of my son creating a NASCAR race on the sidewalk.

At first glance: cars lined up in a row.

Looking closer: planning, sequencing, storytelling, strategy, memory, imagination.

Children’s play often reveals far more than we notice at first.
