You have what seem to be competing goals:  extend and build on the math skills your kids acquired during the year AND have a restful, fun-filled summer break; is there a resolution?  Of course!  On this week’s Everyday Educator podcast, Kelli Wilt and Lisa Bailey brainstorm some easy ways to incorporate math skills into the fun you have with your family:  building projects, cooking experiments, small business opportunities, and other “as you go” suggestions for creating memories as you play with numbers together.

Did you know that ants have cows?  Really! I learned all about it from listening to Stephanie Meter talk about our new Copper Lodge Library selection Exploring Insects with Uncle Paul! If you want to discover more about this read-aloud resource, listen to this week’s Everyday Educator podcast; you’ll be reminded about using read alouds to start your morning off well, and how easy it is to explore creation when you pique the curiosity of your kids.  Stephanie introduces both Uncle Paul and the new Kings of Rome volume, and helps us see why stories of all kinds fuel our imaginations, build family relationships and encourage wonder.  Find new material for your morning baskets and prepare for Cycle 1 at the same time!
