Lifetime educator, Dr. Mindy Shaw, maintained a philosophy in her classroom of 4 to 8 year olds to "teach humanity daily" in addition to the more traditional skill sets of reading, writing and math. Now, in an era of remote and hybrid learning, the notion of teaching humanity is somewhat threatened. She has created a series of e-books and paperbacks so that parents can have the tools they need for also teaching social and emotional skills, and in this series, Dr. Shaw discusses what it means to teach humanity both in general and in an era of learning via computer.

In this episode, Dr. Shaw follows up with the second part of her mini-series of podcasts geared to parents who want to "set the stage for success" with their children. Being that it's September and the start of a new school year in many parts of the U.S., Dr. Shaw felt that it was important to share some wisdom regarding how to best approach certain aspects of parenting with preparation. The conversation in this brief podcast is about FRONT-LOADING, a favorite topic of Dr. Shaw's, and here she discusses ways that a parent or an educator can front-load. She delivers some perfect examples of how she did it as a teacher along with ways that a parent can model front-loading for their children. The bottom line is that front-loading means do lots of work at the beginning of a task and one can do less later on.
