Alex And April Show! | Episode Eleven | Kids and Family Fun Podcasts We Love to Listen To | A minute to win it and more!
Kids and Family Podcasts Hey Boys and Girls! Today we are going to talk about some of the best podcasts out there for kids. When you go camping sometimes you have to drive a long way. Sometimes you have a long bus ride to school each day in the fall. Maybe while you're waiting for your sister to get out of practice you have some time to listen to a podcast. It gives you a chance to learn something new while you're looking out the window in the car. It gives you something fun to listen to with your mom and dad on the way to the grocery store. You can laugh along with some of our favorite hosts and maybe it will give you topics to explore with your family. You might learn some things about your parents or cousins or grandpa you never knew when a conversation is sparked by a podcast!

Alex And April Show! | Episode Eight | Peace Is Patriotic | A minute to win it and more!
Thanks for joining us on the Alex and April show! Story Time – Peace is Patriotic Since our first unit on Camping was inspired by the fourth of July I feel like my book about Jeannette Rankin First Lady For Peace! is an appropriate story to read today! Jeannette Rankin First Lady For Peace! From the Back Cover: Jeannette Rankin was the first woman elected to the United States Congress. Born in Missoula, Montana, Miss Rankin was a leader in the women’s suffrage movement, and later elected to represent her home state two different times. Representative Rankin holds the distinction of being the only woman who voted to give women the right to vote. An active pacifist she was also proud to state “The first vote of the first woman member of Congress was a vote against war.” She is an inspiration for all young children, especially girls, to enter the world of public service and strive for change that will improve the lives of American families. Jackie Marie Beyer read a book about Montana when she was in fourth grade and finally moved to Missoula when she was 21 to attend the University of Montana. She first learned about Representative Rankin when she volunteered at the Jeannette Rankin Peace Center. She met her husband on a mountainside where they live in a small cabin on 20 beautiful acres. When not painting or enjoying Montana she works as a teacher.   Then we’re gonna play Win It in A Minute! You can play along with the puppets and animals at Montana Bear School and win a prize if you get them all right. Mrs. Beyer and the animals will model for you and with practice you should be able to get them correct! We will have lots of challenges for students of grades k-6. Number Sense Confidence in math comes from having strong Number Sense. I received some of the best number sense training in the country. If you spend 5 minutes a day practicing these 5 minute to win it mental math games you will gain automaticity with numbers. In the beginning you might just want to follow along as Mrs. Beyer and the puppets and animals at Montana Bear School model for you but if you practice any child should develop fluency in mathematics. The math challenges will also be posted on the authentic learner podcast and in the google classroom. Task 8 ~ Happy Counting Happy Counting We will start on the number 0 today and count by twos. I will ring a bell  to signal when you go up when you count down, when you vibrate- go back and forth between two numbers, and when to quit. After you have learned the signals, count along with Mrs. Beyer. It will seem easy and challenging at first all at the same time, but trust me, within a week or so, you should be mastering the skills and gaining fluency moving from number to number. The systematic flow will help your child master their numbers in a consistent order. Your child will grow along with the program as skills get more difficult and gain in confidence as they master math facts and concepts. ENTER to win If your child says the math challenge of the day and makes no mistakes you can submit our form to win a prize. We will make sure there are challenges for all levels.
