 19:47:37  alicebarr (SEEDlings)  http://engagingparentsinschool.edublogs.org/

 19:49:09  lauriehowarth  Hi, I can't access the live broadcast..

 19:49:33  alicebarr (SEEDlings)  Hi Laurie: Click on the Edtech A button for sound

 19:49:45  lauriehowarth  ok will try thanks

 19:50:12  alicebarr (SEEDlings)  http://larryferlazzo.edublogs.org/

 19:51:44  lauriehowarth  I am getting an echo and everything is being repeated. is this normal?

 19:51:51  bobsprankle  http://engagingparentsinschool.edublogs.org/

 19:51:59  Beth Holmes  So glad to hear Larry tonight. Connecting parents to schooling at any age is critically important. 

 19:52:28  alicebarr (SEEDlings)  http://www.pthvp.org/about.html

 19:54:52  Beth Holmes  Yes! From the middle school up, the culture often suggests that parents should disengage. There is a subtle hint that parents should "let go."

 19:55:21  JackDs01  even 9th to 12th has a HUGE difference in parents showing up to conferences

 19:55:51  cheryloakes~seedlings  beth you are so right, that is the wrong message for middle and HS

 19:58:34  Beth Holmes  Finland's Minister of Education credits parent involvement/engagement as one of the key factors contributing to student success. 

 20:00:23  alicebarr (SEEDlings)  http://www.postrank.com/

 20:00:47  Larry Ferlazzo  Beth, if you have a link to Finland info, I'd love to get it

 20:06:28  Lorna  building good working relationships is critical

 20:06:48  cheryloakes~seedlings  yes lorna, we so forget that!

 20:09:02  Beth Holmes  Article: Why do Finland's schools get the best results? Good article/videos. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/world_news_america/8601207.stm

 20:10:51  cheryloakes~seedlings  Love that, School is where young people to to see Old people work! Larry Ferlazzo!

 20:11:08  cheryloakes~seedlings  go to see Old people work!

 20:16:01  cheryloakes~seedlings  Have you heard of the marshmallow study?

 20:16:13  Lorna  yes 

 20:16:26  Lorna  very tempting to eat the marshmallow :)

 20:21:59  Beth Holmes  Larry, have you read MIND IN THE MAKING by Ellen Galinsky? She goes into detail about FOCUS and SELF-CONTROL, one of 7 Essential Life Skills. She discusses helping children learn to delay gratification - using the marshmallow exercise.

 20:22:18  cheryloakes~seedlings  thanks beth!

 20:22:28  cheryloakes~seedlings  I will ask him.

 20:22:34  Lorna  @beth that is an excellent resource

 20:24:15  Beth Holmes  Galinsky's work focuses on the young child - but it is fascinating to see how the essential skills for the 21st C can be developed in very, very young children.

 20:24:55  Larry Ferlazzo  Yes, I'm familiar with Galinsky's book and like it alot

 20:25:51  cheryloakes~seedlings  Thanks for the links everyone!

 20:26:32  Alisha  is there a link to this marshmallow study?
