The mission of KLRN is to open a world of lifelong learning through trustworthy and enriching programs on-air, online and in our community.
Dear Educators,

In the upcoming newsletters, we will be focusing on elections; what elections are, how we make choices, and how the election process works. There are some amazing resources for all age groups on PBS Learning Media. Here are just a few resources from the Election Collection on PBS Learning Media: Election Foundations (Grades 6-12, in English and Spanish), You're the Campaign Manager: 60-Second Presidents (Grades 4-12), and What Are the Primaries and the Caucuses? (Grades 7-12).

We will be offering a variety of professional development training sessions this month. They are listed in this newsletter and we also invite you to visit our KLRN Events Page to learn more and to register for any of the sessions. Thank you for your continued dedication to your students, families, and the field of education. Education requires a knowledge of academic subjects, but it is so much more. Here is an excellent article by Glen Mourning about the importance of recognizing and appreciating each student as a whole person. That is what you do as teachers. Thank you for that. It makes such an important difference. We appreciate you.

Please reach out to us any time at education@klrn.org. 

With Appreciation,
KLRN Education Team

PBS KIDS TALK ABOUT: RACE AND RACISM
The PBS KIDS Talk About: Race and Racism special was created in response to parents increasingly asking PBS KIDS for resources to address tough but important topics with their kids, including race and racism, and is part of PBS KIDS’ ongoing commitment to families across the nation.

HEALTHY KIDS
KLRN’s Healthy Kids Project supports healthy lifestyles by influencing eating decisions and physical activities. Through project resources, the audience is introduced to songs, live action movement, animation, and a cast of “perfectly imperfect” characters to deliver key messaging that contrasts healthy choices and attitudes with unhealthy behaviors. Lessons include activities for children ages 0-9 and all school age lessons are aligned to the TEKS. 

Check out this resource about making healthy choices!
