In this episode, we emphasize the importance of teaching critical thinking at an early age. We discuss how nurturing metacognitive skills can significantly enhance students' confidence when tackling real-world issues. Additionally, we explore ways in which educational systems can better incorporate these essential skills into their curricula, enabling future generations to make more informed choices and manage complex problems more effectively.
Key Takeaways:
Understanding the importance of metacognitive thinking in education brings us closer to improving learning experiences for everyone. It's inspiring to think about how we can more effectively apply critical thinking skills to everyday situations. We all play a vital role—parents and educators alike—in nurturing these essential abilities. Additionally, examining our current educational environment more closely provides valuable insights into how it influences the development of critical thinking. Together, we can create a supportive space that fosters curiosity and growth.

00:00we want to know what do you have to say oh what do you have to say oh there's no time to wait
00:12what do you have to say together we lift our voices and let them ring
00:18talking about life we got stories to reveal
00:24place where we can have our students is called a metacognitive thinking to think about their
00:33thinking so having that happen I believe that I truly do but common sense and critical thinking
00:42that's what we want our students to number one I use the word synthesize but have it applicable
00:49to them where they can grasp it more so and apply it to their real world experiences and
00:59that is that's scary uh I mean you know that's unsettling you know about that happened and
01:07and more and more yeah yeah yeah that's they don't I don't think they they don't teach
01:15they don't really and I don't know that it's necessarily the school's job to teach critical
01:22thinking but I do believe there should be some forms of uh critical thinking curriculum that
01:29started from first grade or maybe even kindergarten absolutely begin to think in this so we can be
01:38more discerning because our culture I don't think our culture wants its people to use critical thinking
01:46skills because if they did they would I would imagine we wouldn't make some of the decisions
01:52that we made maybe we would I don't know I don't I don't I think that um even um even today you know I
02:00are I always say use your whole brain and that means you know look at all are you thinking with
02:08your your whole brain because I had students ask me my iPad is is um is only on three percent
02:16and it took everything I was like well I don't have any energy in my you want me to put my finger
02:24in it because I don't have any energy in here but if you go back to that charging station
02:30voila it will be charged what do you think and I just stopped talking and went back to doing what
02:37I was doing because are you using your whole brain but just but really they're asking you like what
02:45should like what do I do right but but get this you know and you know maybe you know for people who
02:53don't know that you you're a teacher you're a musician you do other things and I work with
02:59clients in the psychology field and stuff like that um uh I just sort of forgot what I would say
03:06oh sometimes are the parents do so much for kids I think so when they do so much for kids from making
03:17their bed making uh making all their food taking them to school when they could walk two blocks away
03:23or three blocks away kids don't learn they don't learn basic skills they don't and right to think
03:29for themselves I I and I encountered it I encounter it more than I would like and really it just makes
03:39me think that who when does it kick in and then I talk to other grade levels about common sense and the
03:47the issues that they face with their their uh critical thinking and um being able to solve problem
03:55solve and isn't that what that's why I don't understand people lose their livelihood for having
04:03someone critically think and and problem solve that's that's what teachers that's what we are to are a task
04:11to do is pull that out of you um and but it's pervasive and it is uh it's just across the board
04:21and no matter what grade level if it's I'm on elementary level if it's middle school if it's high school
04:27I don't believe that people are thinking um at all and I I think that it's I would like to know the
04:36numbers but then I wouldn't like to know as we were talking here I just pulled something out and I
04:44don't know how yeah apropos this will be but it said in a 2021 survey revealed that 81 percent of
04:51college graduates wish they had been taught more life skills before graduating some of the main areas
04:57where students felt lost were investing money planning long-term financial goals managing loans how to
05:03budget how to uh cook and clean and do regularly normal skills okay hold on man let's just do that
05:14that back end of that uh cook and clean and uh know how if you lived up in my house you you cooked and you
05:24cleaned and it's saturday mornings it was changing the sheets you know had a plus you had duties I mean
05:31clean clean I had my own bathroom so I was fortunate enough to have that it was not clean all the time
05:36but when Louise uh Aunt Bertha Louise Perry came in there it was she was like oh no so um and I believe
05:49that and you you hit the nail on the head when you say that parents are doing too much because
05:56their there's their children are not are not functioning where they should be even eight
06:03and nine nine ten years old we're repeating ourselves too much you know and I where I'm curious at with
06:12your student is that okay so now students uh have an iphone android a tablet uh they're they're born with
06:24it right so yes they're born with it so I'm interested how where's the disconnect where your student
06:32didn't know what to do when the the power was low because they they're born with that they know that
06:40they know how to get to websites and pull out all their games everything everything I don't know
06:46I don't I don't maybe that was that particular child where maybe maybe their parent that particular
06:53child's parents did a little bit too much for them too much too much yeah oh but I I don't think that
07:00he's just an anomaly in my class I think oh really that is yeah um um even um writing so we have a
07:09writing assignment today um and I had them type on their ipads um uh to give a instead of a written
07:17response because we're preparing for a test and so the test that they're going to take is going to be
07:22on a digital test computerized test they need to type so uh we've been working on typing and so the
07:30question was what is what are the best things in your community and why uh or no what do you like best
07:36about your community and why and then the second one it was another it was another community oh what
07:42what things uh would you change in your community and I had on the board you know right four to five
07:48sentences complete sentences while I'm explaining this and um they were writing one sentence and saying
07:57that they were done and I was like they were saying uh I like my my next door neighbors because
08:05they have a nice dog and they they believe that that suffice and answer the question so but when I give
08:15them free time to talk just but I said let's use that same energy and let's put that on paper so
08:26critically you know just trying to pull it out of them but it is not just in my classroom uh it's just
08:35across the board and common sense I just I don't I just don't get me started just common sense I look
08:46at adults and you know I'll I'll be in the in the shopping line you know paying for my groceries and
08:52it's just like did they really do that or did they really say that just common sense or not to do and
08:59that goes along the lines of rules you know don't don't stay in my space uh you know while you're in
09:06my space you know recognize or uh respect personal space and just un um common sense rules uh of decorum
09:15and uh I don't know what's gonna happen
09:19you know we talked about we were talking about this at another time but uh right before I got here
09:30I needed to do a run to auntie m auntie ann's to get some pretzels uh
09:36okay cheese you get some cheese to go with no you know what it was gonna it was gonna take six
09:45minutes to get the the assaulted one so I had to get a plain one and then I got the six minutes
09:50okay listen I was trying to get back here on time
09:53and I got the little nubs but out here uh there are some intersections people do not know how to
10:06navigate a four-way stop and it drives me badly I don't understand it I don't understand it
10:16could that be taught or not I don't think it is taught in driving it is taught I yeah yeah I
10:26common sense I I since I have to commute to work you know um I'm on the highway and I will see you
10:35you know from lane to lane I travel pretty fast I break the rules and I'm I'm hitting my foot is on
10:41the gas I'm sorry I'm a rule breaker but you know someone will pull up just like right behind me yes
10:49and then they'll just even though they see a car that is in the right side on the right side
10:56it's not moving but they will push and get behind that car know it I'm like your depth of perception
11:05you can't see that that time is I I just you're not going anywhere you can't get past me you're not
11:12going anywhere and I was like you are an idiot and I just I'm looking out of the corner of my eye
11:19you know I'm like you're a fool and you're a dumb driver so I know people common sense they don't
11:30they don't understand um what is the rule at a four-way stop is it to your right or whoever's
11:37whoever stops the first gets to go with the first or who's to the right or to the somebody to your
11:46left or it's something I can't remember but I just know that if whose wheels stop this you know
11:54first if I'm still if they have pulled up and they stop their wheels stop then I let them go if my
12:02wheels are still going okay who has the right of way at a four-way stop okay the first vehicle to
12:08arrive at the intersection has the right of way it doesn't matter where the vehicle is located or
12:13direction it is traveling this rule will always apply when someone has clearly arrived at the
12:19stop sign first even if additional vehicles arrive at the intersection before the first car passes
12:25through the first uh through the first arrive will still have precedence right who has the who has
12:33the right of way of two cars arrive at the four-way stop simultaneously when multiple vehicles reach
12:39four-way stop at the same time there are three rules you must follow just like you said always
12:45yield to the right right who's who's a right and straight traffic takes the right away over turning
12:52traffic okay and right turns take the right away over left turns
12:59all right that makes sense i know that it was right so something or somewhere but who's ever you know
13:09clearly their first people don't is that on the driver's test i or they just have you parallel
13:16and back up do you know back up do you remember my car when you did you did driving ed in school
13:29uh no no i went to the place i was look man i was already driving when i was 14 i was driving for real
13:39like go i was playing for a church man so you know i they didn't drive me to church i took the car all
13:48the way across town i i didn't have no driver's license was this in lubbock it was in lubbock yeah
13:54yeah and finally i was getting tickets him and dad he was like oh you got speeding tickets yes you got a
14:03speeding ticket yes with no license with no license and i was yeah um and that's when i had to go and
14:13get a drive i don't even remember i had to go get his license yes well i had i've been driving since
14:23i'm 13 and i had a car at 13 right well you yes well you turn you turn 14 before i do just a few
14:32few months right okay so i was still 13 and uh i i i had a car at 13 and um it was a white
14:43back then nissan was called dotson so it was a white dotson dotson dotson and i had a job at
14:52mcdonald's i started in the summer and the rule was at 13 at 13 i mean i was working too i'm sorry i was
15:00working too so yeah yeah i was 13 i would have been you know that was my freshman year of high school
15:09so right so um i was told i could drive to work but i could you i could drive up 10 i could go down
15:22radio lane but i couldn't cross summit street but you couldn't cross summit so i had to park
15:30they wanted me to park in k-mar parking lot in k-mar parking lot right so they didn't want me to
15:38cross summit summit and i don't know at that time i don't know if the car was insurance i ended up
15:45paying for my insurance they put me on but i paid for it but they didn't want me to cross it so i got
15:52caught one time because i had been at work for a while i'm driving 13 years old and i'm like i don't
16:00want to walk across the street in my mcdonald's uniform i'm embarrassed so i'm gonna park in the
16:08parking lot and move by right and mother and hp they go just to check and see if he's parking while
16:21they drove by and they saw that i had parked in the parking lot of mcdonald's i had crossed summit
16:29street and that was one of the times when i learned a big lesson because they already knew
16:36and they they said okay so we're gonna ask you a question and if you lie to us
16:41you're gonna get in trouble but if you tell us the truth you might not get in trouble or it'll be
16:49not as severe as what it would be right right and that's why they asked me did i did i park
16:54in mcdonald's and i told him the truth you told him the truth i told him the truth
16:59because they had already seen they had already seen right right they already know
17:05don't they may ask they i mean excuse me they ask questions already knowing what the answer is
17:13yep oh lord oh yes happen i'm good yes happen plenty of times yeah to see what you're gonna do
17:20to see what you because they already know it is amazing yeah but i was gonna ask you know
17:27starting working that early um that is not happening in this age um i don't think so you know i can
17:37remember i think that i was 12 sweeping up the drugstore in my neighborhood um and then i would
17:45go and bag ice at the grocery store right next door make a 75 cents a bag or no i don't even think
17:52it was 75 cents a bag maybe it had been 10 cents a bag or bag and ice you know something like that
17:58when i was 12 and um that it helped me number one manage money and helped me know the value of money
18:08it helped me um on a schedule it helped me with respect with um authority and it helped me with
18:18probably oh uh socialization helping you know and being able to help other people and being able to
18:27being flexible i'm just wondering how you know all of those skills that that you were taught
18:35added to the common sense added to your critical thinking how to um maneuver and navigate things
18:43and solve problems solve problems all of that you know you said you were sweeping up my first jobs
18:52because you know i got allowance but you have to do chores and stuff like that around to get that money
18:57and i wanted my own money so i was you know cutting our own grass and it started with me cutting
19:04uh the neighbors down the street her name was june june's yard was impeccable and i think i got five
19:14dollars for cutting the grass but june you had to do the edging you had to do this i mean she was
19:21watching you she would come out and i was like hey then i heard her ex her husband split up and so
19:30he moved across the street from granny and papa so i was i was cutting his grass okay and then i was
19:37like but i don't want to be cutting this in the summertime that's hard so when i turned 13 i went to
19:45mcdonald's and i lied about my age because i forget what age you have to be i think it was even 16 back
19:51then it might have been 14 it might have been 14 or something but i lied and um i got hired and here's
19:59the thing my brother three years younger than me and he was not too much smaller than me at that time
20:05they asked him if he wanted a uh an application he was 10 years old
20:10it was 10 years old if i'm 13 he was 10 years old he would have been he no he would have been
20:1911 because i was going to turn 14 so he would have been 11
20:23who what oh my gosh oh man so okay and that was my first job you know okay i'm not good with math
20:37i could not count change back okay i can do it now i don't think most people most kids can't do that
20:45they can't do it without a calculator they have to yeah they cannot do it i i see it time and time
20:52you know and oh please please don't give them the coins to make up you know maybe you want to make
20:59it 50 cents so you'll get two quarters back don't give them the change because it's just all forget
21:05about it it's it's it's it's like and you can just see the stress in their face like what what if you
21:14give them i was like man uh it's okay okay i'm gonna laugh and remember what i told you i waited in line
21:24for an hour for hamburger remember i told you that okay i waited and this was a black-owned establishment
21:31so i wanted that hamburger to be so good yeah it didn't have enough seasoning but in there i think
21:44they were stunned because i wanted to make sure they got tipped and i didn't know how much it was
21:49going to cost and so i uh i gave them and it was going to be like nine something and all i had was a
21:5610 and they don't take any kind of card or anything so i gave them my 10 and i was like
22:01looking i was like y'all got to have a tip and in my mind i was like i just grabbed the quarters that i
22:07had two dollars worth of quarters and i said oh this is for you they waited at that window for a second
22:13to be like and they gave me the money back and i said no no that's your tip
22:23well you know they're probably not getting tips those people that go in there and wait an hour
22:38they ain't giving them no tip they didn't know what i was doing i'll give them benefit of the doubt
22:46so
22:46that's funny but i can see that i can see that scenario playing out i can see like they're just
22:58like what this is for and they give it back to you they gave it back to me i said no no
23:05now i'm saying this i'm not trying to say that they didn't have common sense but that was just a
23:12funny thing for me but that happened but maybe but maybe so uh yeah well you know and not how to
23:22think quick quick um you know and and even ask a question this is for me if they didn't understand
23:30um instead of giving the money back giving back this just popped into my head what do you think
23:39about this okay yeah i think this is a common sense it seems to be i'll think with you i think
23:46that when you walk on the sidewalk you walk just like you drive a car okay you walk on the right
23:54they're passing you on the right right and i and i don't understand when people are walking down
24:00the sidewalk and they're walking on your side on your side right i'm like right right we walk like
24:07we drive a car right and if you see me coming at least shift to the to that side that's open
24:17instead of you know expecting me to move out of the way that's that's a whole not a lot of story
24:24but uh yeah yeah oh oh like you walk like you're driving a car you do yes yes yeah that makes sense
24:33we just sort of i don't know that we talk i don't know that we talk about any kind of etiquette like
24:39that but it just makes sense here's the other thing that i don't know if it's common sense i don't know
24:45courtesy when courtesy yes fucks walking down the sidewalk you got three four people walking on
24:52the sidewalk and they don't move for you they like i'm like do you want me to move for all four y'all
25:01you want me to get off on the side over here you want me to excuse myself right right right right
25:09and it's always no i ain't going there you're not gonna go there no i know i'll stop i can
25:18yeah i have seen that happen you know i'll just stand there i was like
25:23you know
25:26yeah i don't move i make my body is tight and
25:32so when you walk by and you didn't move when you hit me i'm gonna be like a tree you're gonna be
25:39like huh right that's what i can just common courtesy it is it's out the window and um in some
25:50instances isn't that taught though or no courtesy is not taught i mean so how do we learn courtesy then
26:01we learned it i think from our parents oh we definitely learned yes ma'am no ma'am thank you
26:08open the door holding the door uh yes if you walk into a room and you speak and
26:14common courtesy um yeah we we learned that because you couldn't say uh you couldn't say uh
26:23uh when when if granny or papa ask you a question you couldn't just say yes right they would look at
26:31you like what did you say oh uh yes ma'am yes sir they don't do that today they don't you know and
26:41uh i was in the gym what day wednesday wednesday and you know in the locker room in the next locker
26:49over it was a um he was a younger guy maybe younger than i am maybe 19 something like that
26:58and uh he was talking he took a phone call and he was saying yes ma'am and no ma'am and i was like
27:05oh they know they know um he's somebody has not trained him but someone has you know he knows
27:15um and that's taught and uh are your students polite
27:19yes
27:22i i would say yes i i really you know they call me mr perry which they should um and
27:34um they are polite with one another i will have to say they are polite with one another
27:41um they ask me questions that i would not think that um like if i'm off for some reason they're like
27:51where were you yesterday and i was like minding my business where where i sway i don't have to i'm
28:01from that old like what right you asking me but they'll ask me and i don't think that it is in any
28:09kind of way being disrespectful or anything it's just like it was a kid just yeah where were you
28:16i was like minding my business where's you i i wonder also as a as a teacher you are an authority
28:27figure and um the more time that you spend with kids there is some bonding that happens so when
28:33you're not there they they miss you and i didn't tell them and i was out you know and uh i didn't tell

30:50like and i was to assume that you're speaking to me i could keep just keep walking and then
30:57they'll be like you he does yeah well how about in in and i know that we're not really talking
31:07about common sense is sort of morphed into courtesy or whatever but we're good it doesn't matter where
31:11we go just going into retail fast food any kind of restaurant my pet peeve is when you walk up
31:22there is no there is no greeting now people that you step up and they just look at you and i often
31:29will wait until they say some of them or i i i'm just taking upon myself to initiate it um and in fact
31:39i was checking out somewhere this week and and i knew just knew that they weren't going to say
31:45anything and i was like and how's your day going and how is it you know because you know then
31:52she kind of like warmed up to it but i was like and then she gave me a greeting a goodbye greeting
31:58thank you and everything it's you know and i was like maybe they're just i apply grace sometimes
32:04and then sometimes well listen you know i think we talked about pleasantries before and i i think i
32:13mentioned i didn't like them when in fact i do sometimes you know i was in the dmv very same thing
32:19it's bright and early it's eight o'clock in the morning what do you say everybody and i go up to
32:25the ladies line and she's just looking at me what you got what what you got i was like good morning
32:31what you got yeah what what's going on good morning to you uh what's happening and i said
32:38good morning and then she finally said good morning and then we started the transaction and then she
32:45started to change but that that was a call for i yeah i i would never you know one of my favorite
32:52jobs was which i never thought i could do was working in the restaurant and i started by being
32:58a host my my favorite job in the world because when people came in and they acted a fool i was able to
33:07hey okay it'll be just a moment i was able welcome blah blah blah i was able to you want to be greeted
33:14you don't want somebody when you're coming into a place to just look at you or whatever
33:20come on now it's not that difficult it is what did you say the lady said to you
33:28at the dmv what did she say what what what do you got
33:31can you imagine going to a restaurant what you got
33:38i'm gonna do that i'm gonna do i'm gonna do that and just see what you got
33:49i don't know what i got i don't know what i got and see what kind of response
34:03they'll probably roll right along with it you know you know it probably would yeah just roll right
34:12with it you know i i never understood i mean i understand we all have those days where
34:19we we gotta do your job but we would much rather like i don't want to see
34:23anybody i don't want to talk right now but i always told people like when when they got hired
34:29and i was training them just get used to saying the same thing over and over just hey welcome how
34:35you doing okay it's gonna be a blah blah blah wait you know i have a seat here and i'll put your name
34:39on the list i'll let you know what is that that's it you know nice that's it it tells them what they
34:47need to know and what you need you have done fulfilled your obligation with the acknowledging
34:52them and yeah that's it and people appreciate it and then when i became a waiter they really
34:59appreciate it and you get tipped well you get tipped oh well i know i know i'm i know yeah i don't
35:08know if i told you this story i i was trained i first off i never thought i could become a waiter
35:14because i in my mind the way i thought about it i thought waiting on people was like being a slave
35:21i literally thought that
35:23i thought waiting on people meant doing what they wanted when they wanted it's not like that
35:33actually you have a lot more control especially if you're really good in managing yes but i learned
35:39my lesson i was trained by the two mothers of the restaurant and they they were invested in
35:46in teaching me so i learned how to be a very good waiter by them and but i wasn't over my judgment and
35:55i'll never forget i opened the restaurant by myself and this older black woman came in and
36:03i'm judging she looked like she was homeless she had bags with her and she took up my busy booth
36:09for six people she's gonna be busy in the morning and i had an attitude but in my head i thought okay
36:16well let me just go over and i'll help her out and she ordered and and everything was pleasant i got
36:22everything she needed i didn't treat her any different well when it was time to pay the check
36:26i turned around and she was gone but she had left a hundred dollar bill on the to pay for the
36:35for the twelve dollar or eight dollar what right yeah and that changed my mind about people because
36:44i judged that woman i don't even know who she was i wasn't i changed my mind yeah
36:51i treated everybody everybody the same after that yeah yeah wow wow that's that's a that's a reality
37:01check you know and uh what a paradigm shift um of of thinking yeah uh because we do that we have those
37:11uh moments where those uh whatever biases that we may have you know just come in and and shape and
37:20they are mistaken i have done it um and they're mistaken on both ways both both sides of it you know
37:29and uh wow that's you said that's good you said biases we we might have to talk about that oh
37:35you know what i'm gonna write my biases because uh-huh oh wait um yeah that's all we got
37:47um biases uh common courtesies common sense and rules and uh wow very good good conversation very
37:59good very good very good um i want to go um a little deeper i don't want to get into a lot of
38:08political things you know uh but some things i think that we could address uh because we have to say
38:15you know and uh yeah i'm not versed in political that yeah i guess just the things that are
38:23happening in around us things that and things that will may not affect us directly but indirectly and
38:32just yeah you know um as as humans and how we we treat one another and how you know um
38:42that's it we we have to live here together so
38:46we we do have to live here we have to live together and uh don't even don't always have to
38:53like it um and um we won't always like it what'd you say we won't oh we won't you know what no i
39:03wonder if you're gonna be able to hear me well because my microphone was way up here this whole time
39:07i mean it was up in the sky
39:10i can i can i hear you so yes okay you can hear me okay yeah yeah we we have to live together people
39:19don't i don't know that they they get it some people think that maybe being separate is the best
39:27but you know we can maybe talk about that in another another show separate is and that's real
39:36thing i mean being separated separate so how did you you know uh uh for people who are watching this
