The Great Disconnect: Interview with Michael Gramling

   

Michael Gramling is a lifelong advocate for social justice who found his professional home in 1979 when he discovered Head Start and embraced its values and its goals working as a Head Start teacher. Currently he spends most of his time visiting early childhood programs all over the United States as a consultant and a trainer helping programs to elevate the level of discourse in classrooms and to meet the needs of individual children. In doing so he has gained a unique perspective and a thorough and intimate understanding of how early childhood education is practiced in the United States.

Michael earned his Masters Degree in Human Development at Pacific Oaks College in 2000 and has served as the coordinator and chief trainer for the Region IV Head Start Teaching Center at Western Kentucky University. In 2000 he developed the national training material used by the Head Start National Center for Family Literacy. He was a contributing author to the Zero to Three 2003 tome, Learning to Read the World, and has had two articles published in Child Care Exchange. Today he joins us to discuss his book The Great Disconnect in Early Childhood Education: What We Know Vs What We Do.

What We Are Learning

AJ: The Yankees are AMAZING and are becoming MUST WATCH TV!

So in the not too distant future, I will be making new lamps for our living room as well as wall sconces for the stairway in my house. I also hope to add a retro-looking or steam-punk style lamp to the studio here.

Stacey: Stacey is getting out of her comfort zone!

Feedback and Shoutouts

• Kevin McElhinney, @KevinMcElhinney, HS Science Teacher from South Dakota
  • “I just wanted to say thank you to the three of you for providing me with yet another great podcast. I came across the show while looking at the Education Podcast Network website. Working in a small district in rural South Dakota it is hard to find a lot of quality PD. Your show feels real and authentic, and the recommendations you give help me grow professionally and yes AJ even personally. Having three young children and 5 different science subjects to plan for I don’t have a lot of time for Twitter chats. Your podcast version gives me the chance to listen and learn while doing something else. So thank you again for this quality show.”
• Michelle Keech, @KeechMichelle, Personal Finance Teacher and Techie from Illinois

150: Apex Fun Run with Jeremy Barnhart

 

Apex Fun Run offers the opportunity to fund raise for schools without depending upon traditional ”product-based” programs.

I don’t know about you but as a kid I sold my share of Turtles (the candy not the critter), candy bars like Snickers and Milky Way as well as M&Ms. On top of those items I also sold wrapping paper, Christmas trees, candles, and popcorn. Who knows what else. As a parent, I have experienced these same types of opportunities for my kids to become traveling candy salesmen. 

 

On today’s show, I am talking with Jeremy Barnhart, the Co-Owner, VP for Franchise Development, and CFO of Apex Fun Run. This company partners with schools to raise money for equipment and other campus needs.

This unique method for raising funds incorporates leadership, character building, and encourages physical fitness. 

Another unique aspect of Apex Fun Run is that it offers the opportunity for you to own your own business.

Jeremy talks about how “they changed the game of fund raising for schools.”

He notes that something that makes them so different from product-based fund raising is that in traditional programs “the schools keep somewhere between 20% - 30% of the collected money whereas with Apex Fun Run the schools retain from 52% to 77% of the money.”

Thanks for listening and make sure that you visit the special page that Jeremy set-up for Teaching Learning Leading K12 listeners.
