A RESOURCEFUL YEAR IN EDUCATION Easy to use
In Fayette County, Donnie Piercey, a fifth-grade teacher at Stonewall Elementary and the 2021 Kentucky Teacher of the Year, said KET is one of his routine stops when looking for educational resources to supplement his classroom explorations. “KET’s resources are always so easy to find and use,” Piercey said. “And they’re vetted for actual classroom use, so they make remote learning a lot easier.” Donnie Piercey
Students in Donnie Piercey’s classroom use virtual technology to explore new destinations before the pandemic (above) and more recently in their distance learning.

igh-quality, trusted educational resources like the ones KET provides to Kentucky educators are invaluable to any classroom, no matter where that classroom is. In this particularly challenging year, educators have turned to KET more than ever. “If it comes from KET, I already know it’ll be good,” said Erin Weaver, library media specialist at Ft. Wright Elementary School in Kenton County. “I recommend KET to everybody I know actually because not only are KET’s resources easy to find and use, they’re also free, which 2

is the best thing ever.” In Kenton County, where students customarily went on a spring field trip, Weaver said that teachers were able to continue the practice this past spring thanks to the virtual field trips available through KET’s PBS LearningMedia, which offers an assortment of video tours — everything from the U.S. Capitol to a butterfly park to the International Space Station. “Even though students were stuck in their homes, they were still able to choose where they wanted to go,” Weaver said. “So the virtual field trips were priceless to them.”
Each year, he asks his students to create a made-to-scale solar system, and he uses videos and other resources found on PBS LearningMedia to help them get their projects off the ground.
Clicks with lesson plans Alice Lamb, a kindergarten teacher at Pembroke Elementary in Christian County, said she’s relied on Nana Lampton
KET’s educational resources for their easy integration with Google Classroom. Every resource found on PBS LearningMedia includes a link that automatically loads the video or interactive game into the day’s lesson plan. “The students absolutely love this feature because it gives them so much independence,” Lamb said. “Plus, it’s so easy for kids and parents to navigate. It really is an amazing tool that we’re very grateful to have.”
Free from distractions Johnnie Bishop, a music teacher at Veterans Park Elementary School in Fayette County, said she routinely incorporates performance videos from KET’s Music Arts Toolkit into her lesson plans, noting that her students love the explanations the performers include about their instruments. “We really appreciate the detail that’s layered into the videos,” she adds. Bishop said she’s experimented with other online resources, but continually finds herself returning to KET. “Having so many trusted resources in one spot is a huge time saver for me and my colleagues,” Bishop said. “And when I include links for students or parents to use, it takes them straight to the resource without any ads or other interruptions.” Johnnie Bishop
Fosters new ideas At Rosa Parks Elementary in Fayette County, fourth-grade teacher Ally Sparks said she and her students have relied on KET’s News Quiz program on Friday afternoons — a tradition that had started when they were still meeting in person — to help “keep things feeling normal in these notso-normal times.” Sparks said she loves News Quiz because it talks about Kentucky topics and introduces students to new subjects that can serve as a springboard to larger class discussions. Ally Sparks
“Everything’s done in kid language, and even though it’s all about the real world, it’s done in a way that’s accessible for kids,” Sparks said. “And that’s important because it gives us a chance to talk about potentially scary topics in a non-scary way. So it’s great for fostering conversation.” KET is proud to be a trusted and relied upon partner for Kentucky’s educators to ensure learning continues however and wherever it’s needed. Much more about KET’s educational services available at KET.org/education.
This has certainly been a year that none of us could have imagined. From covering 90 gubernatorial briefings to providing weekly COVID-19 programs and forums and our weeknight Headlines update, KET strived to keep you informed and safe during the uncertainties. KET was there to assist teachers and parents with thousands of online resources in PBS LearningMedia, including News Quiz, one of the most nationally utilized programs. And KET created a new daytime program service to help support students at home. When the Kentucky Department of Education needed to provide refresher training to help staff fulfill the mandated suicide prevention training, KET created new professional development resources that were available to school mental health specialists to use at their convenience. And when we all found ourselves spending more time at home this year, KET was there to provide an escape and enjoyment with programs like Masterpiece, Antiques Roadshow and our beautiful Kentucky Seasons. Yes, this has been an unprecedented year, and we hope that we’ve helped bring you and your family a sense of connection that we’ve all needed. As we look forward, we want you to know that you can continue to count on KET to be here for you and your family. Whether you’re able to continue your holiday traditions or are finding new ways to celebrate the season, we wish you good cheer and good health. Sincerely,
Shae Hopkins

MORE TO EXPLORE
Explore Kentuckian’s farming initiative for veterans in new program Who will feed us? That’s the question a new film seeks to answer. With the average age for an American farmer being 60, half the country’s farmland is slated to change hands within the next decade. As part of a series of interviews with farmers who are changing the face of American agriculture, the program stops in Livingston, Kentucky, to visit Mike Lewis, a pioneering hemp farmer and Army veteran who founded the organization Growing Warriors, which teaches fellow veterans how to grow and produce their own food as well as form partnerships within their communities.
