Hi you guys my name is Brittany and welcome back to my YouTube channel.  You guys we have been really enjoying like these summers these like lay back days and I really have been enjoying this relaxed approach to homeschooling and to home learning. So for the most part in the morning you guys it's just our typical routine that we do throughout the school year. I get breakfast together for me and for the kiddos and also for my husband too. He's still working from home you guys so I'm still blessed to still have him here with me. He comes upstairs every now and then to help me out with the kiddos as much as he can too. But I have Brielle in the kitchen you guys with me a lot. She has really been enjoying like cooking and it's just so crazy how her skills have grown with her being in the kitchen with me for over a year. But since we are having these more relaxed days I'm finding myself making like real big breakfasts for us just so we can really enjoy like our morning in our Bible time together and our bellies definitely stay full longer throughout the day because we are making like bigger breakfasts and stuff like that. So yeah so this is just what we do getting ready for breakfast in our Bible time. So you guys during Bible time I do a lot of our scripture memory work with my younger daughters and I also do Brielle's devotion. We do poetry and we also do our character matters cards. So we really enjoy like our morning Bible time together. I kept a lot of these clips in here because I just wanted to show you guys how chaotic my Bible time still gets. My younger ones they kind of like come and go throughout the Bible time and I just let them because at the end of the day you guys my younger ones they are four and two and anytime that I can get them to listen I just do my best and I try to keep on going. This is just like how my mornings go and how they flow especially with younger ones but you will be surprised how much they do listen. They do enjoy all the songs and all the things that we are doing with a gentle and classical preschool. A little bit of like mess to clean right here from breakfast. While the girls are playing or Brielle's really entertaining my younger two I'm just going to go ahead and clean it up real quick. Typically Bruvry helps me out a lot but I like when she's playing with them because it really like distracts them while I'm able to do a couple of things. So I'm going to clean off the table and I am also going to go ahead and check um Bruvry's math. She already did her math early this morning. She actually was up before me doing her math because she kind of likes to get it over with so I'm going to check and see if there's any problems we need to go over and then we are going to kind of like proceed with our summer homeschooling day. Like before I put all of the Bible stuff away back on the car I kind of want to show you in detail what I just did with the kiddos. So this right here is a gentle and classical preschool and um here I'm going to show you the front. Yeah so this is a gentle and classical preschool and for this unit we are talking about the letter C. So this right here is the big thoughts for uh little people where we talked about C is for crying it hurts when you fall has a memory verse and these are like the pictures you asked the kiddos about what's going on in the picture. Um here is all of those um cards that I was singing with the kids how can I glorify God. This is their nursery rhyme for the week. This is their uh little math that they're supposed to be doing and this is our memory verse um that you heard us singing hide me under the shadows of your wings. We also have been going over some personal information with Leia so she's learning her country and the state she lives in and this right here is the manners card I give more than I take. This is the poetry book I read out of for the little ones and then I also read a story out of our tiny truth illustrated bible. So this week our book we're supposed to be reading a few times this week is if you give a mouse a cookie for the letter C. So that is everything for their gentle and classical preschool. I also have preschool math at home in her preschool morning binder. I'm going to try to do a couple of activities with Leia today so you can kind of see the rest of the program but for the rest of it I have done pretty much everything on here except for like the art and the music. It's the only things that I don't do on here but um yeah they really have been enjoying this one. Sorry about the background noise again. Now Brielle we read the three minute devotional for girls and then we also did our character matters card right here uh where we uh talked about love and then she read her um poem from singa song of seasons. I hope you guys can hear me and it's not too loud in the background but um yeah this is everything we did for bible before I put it away just in case you guys have any questions. I actually just finished lesson 79 in sax then so the only part I have to do with her right now is the mental math. She did really really good with this lesson practice. She only missed one two three and she really didn't miss this. She just didn't remember to solve this one so she really only missed four problems so what I'm going to do is I'm going to go over those problems with her make sure she understands them and then she is done for today. So in fact all she does is the lesson practice and then she does evens or odds for her uh mixed practice so she's doing really really well with this and um yeah she's doing great so I'm gonna go ahead and uh get this done with her because I know math is not her favorite part of the day so um she can work on some vocabulary for today. Math for a while get her some more milk. I have um I got the book so I can uh watch you okay so go ahead and get started. I can um not watch you I can hear you so go ahead and I get started while pouring my milk. Okay you guys I kept this clip in my video for two reasons not to embarrass my daughter but to show you guys that your kiddos are not going to enjoy all subjects and for me and my household it's math. Math is definitely the subject that I know we have to work on and we just take our time and we just uh hit on little tidbits each and every day and I try my best to show up for my daughter when it comes to math to really try to encourage her and to let her know that she is progressing and that she is doing a really really good job. I don't want to see her fall through the cracks when it comes to this subject so I just work diligently with her and whatever tactics that I need to uh do we just do them and we just take it one step at a time. We've been continuing doing Saxon throughout the summer and I'm so happy we have because seeing her progression and her growth in math has been amazing. Okay great good job on math give me five. All right great job great job. You want to close it up? Okay go ahead you can close it all up. Okay you're done. Good job good job. Okay go ahead you can take it upstairs. Okay you guys Brie Brie is done and I think I might try to work a little bit more with Leia today. This right here is her preschool morning binder that goes with the gentle and classical preschool where we go over like the weather days of the week months of the year she does her shapes and then she also does like her letter of the week that we have been doing which is C. This is her preschool math at home and right now we are at the end of um chapter two so we are right here we are working on um five we're working on counting with dot stickers and I already have like my dot stickers in here ready to go for her as we're counting to 10 and then this is like her beginning phonics that we have been working on from this elemental phonics by JDA and we've been working just on these two letter blends so I have her magnets because she kind of likes doing it this way instead of doing it from the paper and she's almost mastered this and we can go on to our next two letter blend so she's been doing much much better with this and this program is so simple to do with her um but like I said I don't know if I'm going to get her to I don't know if I'm going to be able to get her to do this with me but this is typically what we do with Leia along with her gentle and classical preschool about three times a week and then she's pretty much done she just plays around and you know be a kid because she's only four so like like you want to come do some school with mommy okay you want to do school come on let's do some school you want to try okay hey what is the weather like today oh it's actually sunny outside so you can go ahead and circle the sunny good job so Leia what season is it remember it's summer mommy it's normally it's rainbow yes but mama it's summer good job it's summer it's sunday and it's monday it's tuesday and it's wednesday it's thursday and it's friday and then it's saturday days of the week today it's thursday can you circle thursday for mommy thursday yeah it is thursday and guess what month it is it is july can you find july for mommy this dry no this one right here is july july july great job july mommy good which one do you want to do you want to do circle or you want to do the letter c letter c you're gonna make the c and down good job it's just one curve that's how we make c what sound does c say good job you want to do your letters or you want to do your counting which one you want to do you want to do letters okay come sit down you can have a banana here give it to me i'll open it up for you okay you guys like that is really the extent of learning when it comes to my younger to their attention span is really short but you will be amazed at how much they retain just by you working with them for little bursts of time so leia wasn't really feeling doing like her preschool math at home so i just don't push it and if ever i have an organic opportunity to work on her counting one to ten whether it be like with her toys or things like that i will do it throughout the day but other than that like i really keep it low key and she has learned so much by this like hands-on math all of these like hands-on learning that i'm doing with her um so uh yeah and then as you guys seem working with alana she typically works with alana on some uh simple phonics simple letter sounds um while i'm working with leia so i can kind of kill two birds at one stone so like ruby is a big help so thank you ruby so yeah so she's a big help so right now we're going to what you want to say you want to say hi say hi yeah they see a fishy so right now i'm going to do like a little bit of reading with the kiddos and then we're going to go outside have some fun and that's pretty much sums up like our uh home school day because i really keep it simple it's summertime you guys and i still want the kiddos to have like a lot of fun so yeah okay you guys we went to the library the other day and we picked out some books so i'm going to show you guys what books we picked out and then i'm gonna have ruby show you her books she picked out but i picked out this book called dear reader a love letter to libraries brielle picked out this book which is eyes that speak to the stars this is like um another book that goes with the eyes that kiss the corner because she really really enjoyed that one i have a blaze colors with all my tomas this is actually um one that we're going to be using for our artist unit that's coming up and when i seen it i was like okay i definitely have to get this one i have red shoes for my younger two i have tomatoes for nila tomatoes for nila i checked out i have mary had a little glam and i have fancy nancy this is a baby bear baby bear what do you see and animals

her to read this one and i'm happy our library had this hopefully you can kind of see it with the glare so yeah and as you guys can see the kids are still playing so i'm not too sure how much they're going to actually listen but i'm going to sit here and do some uh reading with brie brie so yeah that's your girl you guys this was such a cute book uh about a little girl in the library and she couldn't find any books that represented her so what she did was she began to create stories of her own and she added her stories to the books of the library uh this was so this was so cute this is definitely one that speaks to brie brie because if you guys are not new here to this channel you know how much brie all loves um creative writing so this was a great find that i found at the library and this was a newer published one um that they had so uh yeah i really enjoyed this one right here with ever you guys this summer we didn't have any big trips or any big vacations plant we really just had to be content with this relaxed summer at home we really have been adventuring through picture books and through stories and we have just been taking it easy and if you guys are in a season

Hello everyone, and welcome to today's Barnes Takeout, your daily serving of art from the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia. I'm Bill Perthes, the Bernard C. Watson Director of Adult Education, and some of the things that make the Barnes, the collection of the Barnes Foundation extraordinary extend beyond the remarkable collection of predominantly post-impressionist paintings that Dr. Barnes collected, but also the integration of often unexpected objects, things generally considered the decorative arts, and perhaps top among those in terms of unusual qualities is what's Barnes's decision to include pieces of metalwork, predominantly wrought iron, juxtapose amongst the paintings, something that many people confuse many people because it's so unexpected. Today, I'm going to take a moment to think about the metalwork and focus on one piece in particular. Just to put the inclusion of the metalwork in the development of the collection itself, I want to remind you of a few dates that the foundation was chartered in 1922 as an educational institution. It opened in 1925, but it wasn't for 11 years before Barnes sort of got the bug to start collecting and incorporating pieces of metalwork into what he called his ensembles, the unusual arrangement of the collection. So in 1936, Dr. Barnes wrote a letter to Kenneth Clark, who was the director of the National Gallery in London, where he states, quote, I believe I'm on my way to show in such a fashion that every sensitive person can see that there is essential aesthetic difference between the forms of the great painters or sculptors and those of the iron workers of several hundred years ago who made such commonplace objects as hinges, door handles, locks, et cetera, to make the job complete on route to Paris to get some more early French pieces of hardware and, if possible, get some English pieces too. So it was in 1936 that Dr. Barnes first started to incorporate metalwork, predominantly wrought iron pieces into the ensembles. So many of the objects that we have are commonplace hinges or poles or plate discussions, lock plate discussions, but the piece I'd like to focus on today is a truly exceptional piece in the collection. And we see it here second to the top in gallery six, we're facing south, and a bit of a personal note when I brought my young children to the collection, my son, who was less than seven, immediately was attracted to this piece and asked what sort of lock would that key be used for. And this is the object that drew his attention and not surprisingly, so just to put it back in context, it's this piece here and here's the piece itself. So it's a very large, a very large key for sure, but it wasn't intended to be used as a key per se, but instead was a sign that would have hung outside a locksmith's. It's French, it's from the 18th or early 19th century, and the intention, there are several intentions for the locksmith to hang this out front, first of all to signal his trade, but also to demonstrate the skill, his craftsmanship by the very ornate quality and intricacy of this object. Now it would have hung vertically, although in the ensemble, Dr. Barnes hangs it horizontally and you'll see at the tip this round opening, and that's where it would have been suspended from a bracket out front of the locksmith shop. This is an object that is invested with aesthetic qualities, qualities that were intended to make it a visually exciting piece to look at, so beyond practical purposes, but really invested with creative or artistic qualities. Some of which likely would have had some symbolic connotations. We don't know who made this, works like this were not regularly signed, and even the dating, as I said, it's from the 18th to early 19th century is challenging, somewhat challenging to determine because the material itself doesn't really show the age, we can't date it per se, and styles were often replicated, or even in later years when old pieces were repaired because of wear or damage, craftsmen were able to replicate those earlier forms, often to the degree that it was almost impossible to tell what was more modern or a repair to what was the original. That said, there are certainly some remarkable aspects to this object. At the key end, we see this box, this would have been hollow, and it's decorated is hollow, and it's decorated with this floral design, which is a quadrofoil, so four leaves, and this is a symbol that goes back in time, think of it as the four leaf clover, and its intention is as a sign of good luck. The shaft of the key replicates rods that have been bound together, and I suspect that's what this top is, this is the curled end of those rods, and the collars suggest the binding that holds them together as we move up. Here we see really some of the truly extraordinary qualities of this sign. We have these leaf designs, so these would have been made out of likely sheets of metal that were shaped on an anvil, and it's something that we see in smaller objects, we see them on gates or on grills, and in a smaller piece, sometimes they could have been formed out of a mold, but given the size of these, they likely would have been done by hand, and the variation on them, you see how these openings, for instance, are different on each side, just slight difference, and that suggests the hand wrought nature of it. I should also say that these leaf motifs, again, are an ancient one, it's one that resonates with the palmet motif that we see in ancient Egypt, for instance, so it's one that very much resonates through time. In the French tradition, the leaf design is one that changes in its level of ornateness depending on the period, and here we're talking about Louis XIII, XIV in those periods. In the center between these leaf motifs, we have these three interlocking circles, they might reference the Christian trinity, Father, Son, Holy Spirit, although more often than not, those three are directly interwoven, so the third would actually have been down here, so it may just have been a choice to include three interlocking circles, and then within that we have these sea curls or scrolls, and you'll see that there's an abundance of those, both in the back, just tucked in beneath and behind the leaf motif, and then varying from the center to the edges, and then a flourish of them on the outside. We zoom in a little closer, we can get a sense of the piece's construction, so for instance, if we look up underneath, because we can look underneath these leaf motifs, we can see that these pieces are open, so they're not solid, and as I mentioned, the scrolls are tucked in underneath that. If we look down here, we can see the tips of each of the leaf pieces that have either been welded together, there might be a bolt that holds them together, that this collar hides, or it could be that the piece is held together by the collar itself, and you'll notice that each of these scroll pieces is a separate piece, even though they look like, and this was certainly the craftsman's intention that they seem to arise out of a single piece, and as we move up, we can see, for instance here where this rod pierces underneath this knob, so that's a bolt that would have held, that holds the pieces together. We get the illusion that these are interlocked, which they probably are are likely welded together, which gives them a lightness, but if we look just underneath, there's another bolt holding these separate pieces together, and if we go to the top, we get the echo of what we saw down below, and again notice the tips here where these pieces join each other, so it's quite an ornate piece, and it's certainly a piece of metalwork that stands out in the collection, both because of its scale as well as because of its delicate yet delicate and ornate quality, so it's an interesting combination of something that's large in scale, but that has a delicate decorative, almost filigree quality to it in the abundance of scroll work. Now if we put it back into the context of the ensemble, we might ask the question why this piece in this ensemble or on this ensemble, and I suspect there's a couple reasons. The one I'll point out for us today is how it relates to the objects that are on the extreme of this ensemble, on the extreme right and extreme left. Here we have two American 18th century Windsor chairs, and you'll notice that these Windsor chairs are of considerable scale, they're quite large, and we have a pair of them on either side. Over top of them are paintings by Pierre Auguste Renoir from around 1917 to Seated Nudes, and I think the Renoirs give us a bit of a clue that Renoir has chosen to paint these large scale nudes, but that the picture itself is very delicate and decorative, so it's a combination of perhaps unexpected qualities, things that are large but have a light delicate decorativeness to it. So if we go back to the full ensemble, we see how we have a mirror of that on or an echo of that on the other side, and then finally if we look at this Pennsylvania German chest, again a common kind of object in the collection, 18th century as you can see by the date on it, it itself again is a large solid sort of massive chest, chest over drawers, but that it has been decorated or was decorated with these undulating vertical lines that give it a decorative delicacy, so again resonating with the qualities both of our locksmith sign, as well as the Renoirs and the American Windsor chairs on either extreme. So I hope that the next time you visit the collection or if you visited online, take some time to look at the metalwork, the ironwork in the collection. As I said, some of the pieces are very common and simple, but we do have some really surprising examples of wrought iron. So again I hope you'll look for those in the collection, and I want to thank you for tuning in to today's edition of Barn's Takeout.

Hey, Jim appreciate your time Working on something about Shane and was hoping you could tell me about getting to know him What your impressions have been? And I'm looking for stuff about his sense of humor too as I see him making guys laugh on a regular basis when I'm Well, first of all, I think it's really very intelligent person Has a good understanding of the scheme very close to Mike You know kind of grew up under Mike as a revolved and I Think he does have a good sense of humor, you know, he knows he knows when To lighten it up a little bit in a room And again, I think he's a heck of a football coach with great expectations Moving ahead. Thank you Joe restaurant Hey, Jim. Thanks for doing this. I had a question for you about Mike Vrable Having him as you did, you know early in his NFL career during those days or even when he departed Could you have envisioned?  Well, you know, he was very bright intelligent player When we had him we were you know in Pittsburgh we We drafted him because he was a heck of a football player But we were we were pretty well set at that position. We had, you know, Kevin Green, Greg Lloyd, Jason Gill and Carlos M And so Mike would play multiple positions even on someone third down. We put him inside a defensive tackle He picked things up and smart love football and Obviously when I left He left the following year to go to England got his opportunity. So and I thought they did an outstanding job with them playing it full back and Linebacker and defensive and and tight end, you know, did a lot of different things with him So it shows you his football intelligence and he's carried over to his coaching career You know, great understanding of football from from the offense defense of special teams And he's done a great job up to this point Thanks, I think Jim why I just came in Jim if you have a question I did I appreciate that How you doing coach? How you doing? I'm doing good a couple for you. I guess one I know Jay on said he he said you're a little taller than expected when he met you the other day After seeing you on zoom any early impressions on some of your guys I know you're chopping at the bit to get to work with them How good's it been to be back in front of them face-to-face and any early impression from you? Yeah, you know what they love football both those guys. I mean all those guys in the room They're actually they're fun to coach They take coaching you can be critical When it's time to be critical and I think you know when they do things well we give them the praises and They I love how they take coaching and they listen and try to do what you say and I think they're excellent J. Oh, it's really very intelligent You know he picks things up fast You know all you know that I think you know There's things he needs to work on to get better and he's doing a great job at those working at that You know, there's there's not an unwillingness in that group to not get better. They all want to get better And what did you see when you watch tape on David long from last year and where maybe can he take a next step in your Well, I think everybody needs to improve and you know in all in all round areas but you know David's very instinctive football player with a good nose for the ball and For for a rookie to go in and play a young guy to go and play as much as he did and played well when he's in there You know, we'll see what down the road with what the Toby you can't have enough good football players on your team and he's getting better and better a couple days ago He made a few mistakes to the next day. Correct them. He's been taking off since then so I'm excited to coach those guys especially those three in particular and I see nothing But upside with all Darry bowclair Jim you've been around this league a while coached a lot of defense I'm just curious though as you as you've gotten into the playbook here Is there is there anything that that Dean peas had and was doing that you look at and say? Wow, now there's something I hadn't thought of or considered along the way until now Well, you know what I've been I played tens like 32 coaching so You know kind of I think I've seen most almost everything or I've seen it on film and I Think the big thing we have a lot of volume here and these guys have a great understanding of it and As long as that's the case you could do a lot of different things with this group Is it a bigger playbook than you typically would have had when when you were running defenses then? I Don't know. I don't you know, I don't know if I compare What we did, you know depends on where you say we were at, you know You know some places like noro's we had a great front and we didn't play much We let them we had coverage and let them rush and you know, they had a lot of sex So I think these guys they do a lot because they can do a lot because they're very intelligent group Coach I don't have any in the queue right now, but we've kind of got people bouncing back and forth between the calls so if you could Good can't hang with us for a little bit. We may have people got some back and forth I may jump back in if I can Robbie coach. This is Jim White again I just want to ask you about the pairing of jet you talk about Jay on just how I guess comforting is that or how good As a coach when you've got two backers who are familiar with each other know each other so well on and off the field What will that show up on the field for Jay on and Rashawn? Well, I think the good thing is there they're very close both of them And they want they want they both want to be successful and they don't and both don't want to win a lot of games and They put team first, which is important. They play hard both of them are hard-playing players They and they love the game. So I think I you know just Just my take on it just looking at those two and been around them and they're fun to coach Like I said, they take hard coaching. They It's a good group. It really is it's fun to coach them. I'm gonna ride it where it's not fun coaching guys These guys are fun to coach Paul Karski Jim a little more on Shane if I may you talked about him kind of coming up under under Mike's wing there How big is that as you're a coach coming up to get to be at the right hand of somebody who's made it or is making it Who was that for you and how much does that accelerate the process for a guy? Well, you know, I learned I Learned more from a guy named K. Stevenson Who was the head coach of the bills when I was playing about overall football? offense defense He was kind of the guy I learned Everything from you know, I made that learning defense, you know, there was a that's a combination You know Gunther Cunningham was my coordinator and In Oakland We're in LA at the time, you know, and I've been under some good coaches Bill Kaur was a heck of a football coach You know, so I think you learned a little bit from everybody Jim Moore is the heck of a football coach I learned a lot from him offense defense and special teams So I think you grow as you grow and the people you work for you just learn different things and I Think that's kind of where Mike was Mike learned under some great coaches of bill bill checks a great coach Bill Bryant's a great coach and you know, he's and he sucked it all in and You know, he's taking it from those guys. You got to have something to win over Shane's got to have something to win over Mike at that early stage, right?  Uh David Butler Jim Scott Booker said that this is he thinks this is a great time to be a safety in the NFL I'm curious if if you agree with that and how have you seen that position sort of evolve over the last decade or so Well, I'll tell you what I think it's great that these guys are on the field playing right now and they're in enjoying their life right now because Once you get in this building with all those guys Everybody tunes out what's going on on the outside whether it's uh racial social injustice, you know, because this is a nice tight knit family And they enjoy being around each other and they and they would like working and it's hard So it's it's actually it's a it's a way to Kind of have fun is is the you know is what's going on everywhere else outside I'm sorry. I guess I wasn't clear. I was talking about the safety position in particularly, you know, you know the safety position I'm not you know, I don't coach the safeties I think they're very important in the game because you got to do a lot of different things nowadays and the way that people are Throwing the ball, you know people play corners of safeties. I love our two safeties I think they're great football players, you know, they're just being around this short time but watching them on tapas very impressed with them and I think they kind of fit the modern day players or what you need right now Uh terry mcquarron just joined us terry. Did you have a question? Yes, coach Talk a little bit about david long. He's a guy I guess it's going to have to step up and be the third linebacker Among your inside guys this year, I guess with uh west of the woodyard Being out. What are you seeing out of david that you like? Yeah, I just answer one of those questions, but uh same thing. I think david's uh very instinctive Has a good nose for the ball. He understands football You can you can put him in the game and you don't miss a beat We're trying to teach him a number of different positions. He's caught on very well And um, I think he's done a good job up to this point, you know, we put the pads on pretty soon So it'd be fun to watch these guys
