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 brief episode, Dr. Shaw shares some personal thoughts related to the Thanksgiving season just days after the actual holiday. Thanksgiving has always been a personal favorite of Dr. Shaw, and she talks about her tradition of going around the holiday table and having each person express what they are thankful for. That discussion leads into her point of view on the will to live, even under dire circumstances, and she feels that more people are comfortable expressing their thanks this year because there is so much negativity in the world around us. Her thoughts here are brief, but they are nice kickoff to the holiday season.
