How about teaching them how to fall?

And my autocorrect reminded me, teach them how to fail. And then recover. We spend so much time buffering them from failure that they lack the skills to handle it.

1. other languages as early as possible (study show children pick up languages faster than adults
2. more skills like sewing, cooking, repairs, taxes,
3. debate and critical analysis
4. Emotional regulation
5. Manners and etiquette
6. self defense so students don't feel like they need to rely on violence or intimidation

I wish they would teach the younger kids how to tie shoes, Parents don’t teach them that skill anymore and I spend time during my P.E. classes tying shoes from K-2nd grade. Sometimes even the older kids ask and I tell them to find a friend.

Nuanced critical thinking skills that don't align with any ideological vision of the past. Seems like people in the US, even educated people, get very trapped in contemporary ideological frameworks that limit historical understanding.

Does anyone know if this is normal? I joined a vault 100 firm in September last year. The firm put me on tier 7. In January I had the associate review and everything was normal. After a couple of weeks, I got the call from the hiring partner telling my bonus and new salary (because of the firm-wide salary increase). I realized I still get paid as a 7 year associate. The partner said because I joined the firm later in the year, it’s normal not to advance in the next year. Is it? Thanks!

I read this super interesting article about how big companies like Toyota are investing in social-emotional training for their employees and seeing massive benefits. I actually think this could be a whole separate class for students of all ages. Learning about conflict resolution, growing your own self-regulation skills...it's really important.
