If you have the SEED book nearby, you may be holding more than a text.

You may be holding questions.

Where do I begin?
What does this look like with real learners?
How do I design experiences that are worthy of their thinking?
How do I know what I’m noticing—and what to do with it?

These questions are not a problem to solve.
They are a signal that the work has begun.

SEED was never intended to be a script or a sequence.
It is a way of thinking about enrichment, about learners, and about what becomes visible when we create space for curiosity, creativity, and challenge.

The SEEDling Squad exists to support educators in the hard work of implementation. The work that happens after reading, when ideas meet real classrooms, real learners, and real constraints.

This is a community for educators who are willing to:

• plant experiences with intention

• observe closely without rushing to conclusions

• sit with ambiguity long enough to learn from it

• and design enrichment that reveals thinking rather than chasing products

The SEEDling Squad Summit has already taken place, and the full experience is available through recorded sessions. The recording is not meant to be completed quickly. Instead, we hope that you will return when a question surfaces, when a pattern begins to emerge, or when something finally makes sense.

The community is open so this work does not have to be done in isolation.

Here, we plant ideas.
We sow possibilities.
We tend the conditions that allow thinking to grow.
And over time, we harvest insight about learners, about learning, and about ourselves.

You’re in the right place if…

You’re in the right place if you’ve read SEED and thought,
This resonates, and I’m not sure what to do next.

You’re in the right place if you are wondering how to:

• move from an idea to an experience

• design enrichment that invites sustained engagement

• notice patterns without over-interpreting them

• and respond thoughtfully to what learners show you

You’re in the right place if:

• you’ve tried a SEED episode and it didn’t unfold as planned

• you noticed something unexpected and wanted to protect it

• you are learning to trust observation as much as preparation

• you believe enrichment is about who learners are becoming, not what they finish

And you’re especially in the right place if you want to do this work with others who are thinking just as carefully.

A note for educators joining mid-year

If you’re finding the SEEDling Squad partway through the year, WELCOME! 

There is nothing to catch up on.

SEED work does not follow a timeline.
It follows readiness, curiosity, and noticing.

You are invited to:

• enter where it feels right

• listen before you speak

• revisit sessions when a question arises

• and take only what you need, when you need it

Some educators arrive with a specific SEED episode in mind.
Others arrive with a sense that something needs to shift.
Both are meaningful starting points.

You may choose to observe.
You may choose to share.
You may choose to wait until an idea takes root.

All of that belongs here.

What’s growing now and what’s ahead

The recorded Summit and ongoing community space are available to you now, providing room to reflect, share ideas, and learn alongside educators who are committed to thoughtful enrichment.

We are also planning another SEEDling Squad Summit in Spring 2026. Like all good SEED work, details will emerge with intention and care and will be shared when the conditions are right.

If you are holding the SEED book and wondering how to begin or how to go deeper, this community is here to support you.

We are glad you’re here.
We are learning alongside you.
And we believe deeply in the work you’re doing.
