🥚 WHAT TO WATCH THIS WEEK:
🎁 ICYMI: The TKSST Gift Guide 2025 is live! I’ll continue adding new gift ideas for the next month, so check back every week.
🎧 School of Practice: Edutopia has a new podcast about ready-to-use teaching strategies “backed by research and test-driven by teachers just like you.”
🎨 Three Bob Ross paintings were auctioned for public television, raising $662,000—far more than the estimated amount. Those are indeed some happy little trees!
📺 Reminder! The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross is on Pluto.tv (with commercials) all day and night for free. We’ve spent many happily calm nights watching with our kids.
📰 The News Literacy Project continues to provide classroom-ready resources and discussion prompts for current news, rumors, and events in their educator newsletter: The Sift. This week: AI-generated song goes viral and more.
🪦 Today is the 162nd anniversary of The Gettysburg Address, and we now have a video for that. ⬇️
We’ll be taking a break from posting new videos during Thanksgiving week, but we’ll still send out our weekly and daily newsletters.
Cheers, and have a wonderful week. - Rion
