Including: a school in Chicago announcing teacher-free learning starting this fall and first lady Melania Trump laying out a vision to have a “humanoid educator” in classrooms. They also answer a question about adding a dog to the family. (Mentioned on the show: Lucy's dog, Leo!) This week on the Plus Playground: weird questions to get your kids to talk after school.
