She has been a facilitator for a youth group called Earth Scouts for the past four years now; recently her co-facilitator has stepped down, allowing me the opportunity to step up, and I am very [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some kids go to Wisconsin Dells to ride the water slides. Others take an afternoon to consider where things go when you flush them down the toilet, where our drinking water comes from, and how these water systems work together. This past week, our Earth Scouts group looked at water in a different kind of [...]]]></description>

Even so, I can respect cuisine of all varieties (even if I don&#8217;t eat it)&#8211;of the carnivorous persuasion and otherwise. It&#8217;s shocking, however, to consider the variety of disgusting processed byproducts our fast-food nation passes off as food&#8211;especially to our children. Jamie Oliver demonstrates this [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Over the past several years, my teaching has cultivated critical dialogue amongst students on social issues&#8211;education, gender, ethnic/racial conflict, classism, and so on. I raise questions; that&#8217;s what I do. Truth be told, my personal agenda is clearly a progressive one; although, I am very careful not to stack the deck against students with contrary [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[During December our Earth Scouts group participated in a service project of collecting shoes for Share Your Soles. You might think&#8211;why shoes? To be honest, I never really thought about the importance of shoes, but after learning more about this organization and exploring this issue, I now see how very valuable shoes can be&#8211;sometimes even [...]]]></description>

I really don&#8217;t understand why people associate colors, or anything else for that matter, so completely with one gender or the other. Why can&#8217;t a boy get a purple folder?
