Transcript

0:00 Welcome to Arts and Ideas in the Air, Under the Tent, and Around Baltimore, your daily
0:09 podcast briefing of the goings ons here at Arts and Ideas Sudbury School.
0:13 So today we had Article Club.
0:15 That was a nice discussion about some environmental issues, kind of a broad perspective based
0:21 on the videos that we saw.
0:22 And a lot of it was about narratives, the narratives we tell ourselves and how those
0:29 narratives can be used to help or hurt our ability to adapt to changing our ways for
0:40 environmental purposes.
0:41 So that was a nice little discussion.
0:44 There was also Party Corporation, which was probably mostly talking about Halloween stuff.
0:52 As I mentioned in school on Tuesday, we have no intention of having food at this Halloween,
1:03 but we still can dress up in costumes and decorate and all those fun things that we
1:09 love so much about Halloween.
1:12 So I guess we will find out next week how that goes.
1:18 Next week for, well, we'll be off on Friday.
1:24 So I guess that means no Farewell Friday and probably no Article Club.
1:32 We did pick an article, though, which is on the surveillance, age of surveillance, the
1:39 Guardian.
1:40 So we'll see what we think about that.
1:43 But I guess it'll be like maybe in two weeks.
1:46 I don't know.
1:47 We'll confirm that with Josh.
1:48 We didn't think about it.
1:50 So we also concluded this week with two visiting students.
1:54 We will have their X interviews and I guess we'll see next week if they decide that the
1:59 school is a good fit for them.
2:01 We're hoping they do, but we will see.
2:04 And next week we have a family of three students visiting us.
2:09 So that'll be exciting.
2:12 And I guess that's all I can think of right now.
2:21 So I hope you all have a great weekend.
2:25 It's Farewell Friday and we had wonderful weather this week.
2:29 It was a beautiful, beautiful times out here.
2:31 Lots of lots of people hanging out on the tent on numerous occasions and lots of swing
2:40 action.
2:41 We love our tree swing.
2:44 One thing that seemed a little bit less this week was the Gaga pit.
2:49 Not sure if I noticed anyone playing in it this week.
2:52 So hopefully that'll pick up again soon.
2:54 It's always fun to watch.
2:58 And well, have a great weekend.
3:00 I know it's hard when you don't have a school to go to, but you know, I'm confident you
3:08 all can find something to do.
3:10 And we'll be back here on Monday.
3:14 Looking forward to a great week next week.
3:17 Great week this week.
3:18 Great week before that.
3:19 It's just great weeks all around.
3:21 We're having a real good time here and I hope everyone listening is having a good time as
3:25 well.
3:26 And well, I'll talk to you later and have a good one.
3:31 Bye bye.
