Great This American Life podcast about middle school


Recommended Posts

  • 3 weeks later...

I've had this link pulled up since you posted it, but we just got around to listening to it yesterday. The kids and I enjoyed it enormously! What really hit them is that the kids in the interviews kept using the same word I used over and over with my kids to explain why they weren't going to middle school—drama. We had a great talk about brain cell growth being second only to the early years and what neural pathways they wanted to choose to form.

 

Anyway, thanks for posting. I'm happy to bump this again in case anyone missed it. :)
