The Common Ground Experiment

What a special morning! I'm so grateful for this recognition and generous gift. Thank you Daireds Salon & Spa Pangea all my family and everyone else who supports The Common Ground experiment! Sweet Ford and Iris, your words mean so much to me. I can only hope to live up to them...but the truth is that YOU GUYS and all my students are the TRUE inspiration. Thank you, 4th graders, for reminding us how to find common ground. Your example has forever changed me, and I will always be grateful. https://www.wfaa.com/video/entertainment/television/programs/good-morning-texas/rise-and-shiners-lori-cousino/287-07d0867e-94fc-4a2d-88d5-9d8d06376053?jwsource=cl

This week we are excited to share two Colorful Conversations centered on civic responsibility. My students have been learning about how they can be active participants in local and state government, and they have been so fortunate to learn from some amazing leaders and role models. Today you will hear from none other than Mr. Beto O'Rourke! I am still blown away by the fact that my 4th graders were able to spend 20 minutes chatting with him. Thank you, Mr. O'Rourke!

This is a very sweet episode of Colorful Conversations. Our amazing sound editor, Eryn Christine Bird was nice enough to allow my students to interview her! Eryn is a great sound editor not only because of her expertise in audio engineering but because she listens deeply. She writes a note to my students after editing every single show, sharing her thoughts and reflections, asking questions, complimenting them on the depth of their discussion, etc. Even though my students had never met Eryn before this episode, she made them feel seen and known and appreciated deeply. Isn't that all any of us can ask for? Thank you Eryn! We appreciate you!
