Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #682 was recorded live at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington Massachusetts in mid-August of 2026 and is an hour of visionary acoustic improvised music played by the Gaea Star Band featuring Mariam Massaro on vocals, Native flute, ukuleles, singing bowl and acoustic guitar, Bob Sherwood on piano and bass guitar and Craig Harris on Native drum and congas. Today's show begins with the beautiful, pastoral “Lift Up My Spirit”, a pretty, light song with a classical Neopolitan feel before we move to “Positive No Matter What”, a reverent, celestial prayer with a fine vocal from Mariam. “My Soul Has Wings” begins as a solemn, reverent psalm before lifting off to Dionysian abandon with powerful work from the band. “Singing The Same Song” is a rocking, New Orleans-flavored rocker with tight acoustic guitar rhythm guitar work from Mariam over Bob's barrelhouse piano and “River Of Love” comes from the “Gaea Star Crystal” album with the band taking it up yet another notch with this powerful rocker. “Into The Might Waves”, also from the “Release” album is a rich, complex anthem performed flawlessly by the band and “Celebrate Diversity” is a powerful, fundamental medicine song with a beautiful, jazzy refrain and a driving performance from the band propelled by Craig's powerful conga groove. “Aloha Hey” is a sunny Hawaiian reggae workout played drum-tight by the ensemble and closes today's show with a rollicking bang.

In this episode of TAB Storytellers, Abi and Jen sit down with Paula Liz, an artist, educator, author, and founder of Anti-Racist Art Teachers. Together, Paula, Abi, and Jen discuss anti-racist art education, student advocacy, artivism, contemporary artists, representation, and the small but meaningful actions educators can take within their own spheres of influence. Paula shares the origin story of Anti-Racist Art Teachers, the need to respond rather than remain silent when harm shows up in classrooms or professional spaces, and the ways art education can help students imagine, create, and build a more equitable future. They also discuss the importance of art rooms as spaces where students can develop voice, agency, and leadership.For more information about TAB, please visit the TAB website: Teaching for Artistic Behavior.

This week on Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #672 the Gaea Star Band present another hour of visionary acoustic improv music featuring Mariam Massaro on vocals, Celtic harp, Native flute, ukulele, acoustic 6- and 12-string guitars, mandolin and shruti box, Bob Sherwood on piano and Craig Harris on congas and Native drum. Recorded live at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts, today's show begins with the mystical raga “Did You Hear The Song Inside Your Heart?”, a rich, floating piece built around Mariam's enormous-toned Martin acoustic 12-string guitar tuned in DADGAD open tuning. “What A Way” is a crisp, dancing minor folk song featuring Mariam's chiming ukulele, energized congas from Craig and nimble, racing piano from Bob supporting Mariam's dramatic vocal and “The Easy Way” is a fantastical, deeply evocative ballad that achieves a beautiful balance between throbbing Native drum, crisp, ancient-sounding mandolin, minimalist, mysterious piano and Mariam's beautifully controlled, narrative vocal. “Such Good Fortune” celebrates the year of the Fire Horse through a rich, staid raga built on Mariam's hypnotizing shruti box drone and featuring soaring Native flute explorations and an appealingly solemn, reverent vocal from Mariam. The piece shifts dramatically into a long, soaring gospel coda punctuated with passionate Native flute excursions, powerful, circular piano and thrumming Native drum. “Celebrate Diversity” is a fantastically creative, upbeat song that explores several jazz, classical and Indigenous directions while always returning to a powerful main motif in support of Mariam's powerful message. “Transform” is a fine, acoustic-guitar driven blues with a light, relaxed vocal and tight contributions from the ensemble and we conclude today's show with “Make The Best”, another 12-string based raga with dramatic, granitic piano and Native drum supporting Mariam's inspiring vocal.

If you've ever felt stretched too thin, this episode is for you. In Part 1 of my series, 12 Things I've Learned About Homeschool Moms, I share the first six insights I've gathered over my years as a homeschool mom, coach, and guide for women just like you. These self-care tips for overwhelmed homeschool moms aren't rules or prescriptions—they're real-life reflections from someone who's walked this path, experienced the overwhelm, and learned how to reclaim herself without abandoning her homeschool dreams. Join the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge for Homeschool Moms What You'll Learn: Self-Care Tips for Overwhelmed Homeschool Moms Every homeschool mom faces invisible challenges, even when things look “perfect” from the outside. In this episode, I dive into the first six things I've learned about the homeschool mom experience: You feel like you never get a moment to yourself – The constant “on” mode can leave you disconnected from your own body and needs. No one sees everything you do – From teaching to caregiving to emotional labor, the invisible load is real. You say yes because it feels easier than dealing with disappointment – Learning to say no is a radical act of self-care. You're emotionally depleted – The overwhelm is rarely about homeschooling itself—it's about carrying too much without space to reset. You feel guilty resting – Rest isn't optional; it's essential for your health, your energy, and your presence in your family. You don't even know who you are anymore outside motherhood – Reconnecting with yourself is foundational to leading a confident, aligned homeschool life. Every one of these six things isn't a sign that you're doing homeschooling wrong—they're signs that you're human and have been carrying more than anyone was meant to carry alone. Why These Self-Care Tips for Overwhelmed Homeschool Moms Matter If any part of this episode made you exhale or think, “oh… that's me,” consider this your gentle invitation to start tending to yourself with the same care you offer everyone else in your home. Emotional overfunctioning and people-pleasing can follow you into homeschooling, and slowly, you lose not just your energy, but your sense of self. Reclaiming yourself isn't selfish—it's foundational. Your kids feel safest when you feel safe. Join the 12-Day Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge This is exactly why I created the 12-Day Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge. It's not another checklist or performance-based challenge. Instead, it's twelve small, doable shifts designed to help you come back to yourself with compassion, not pressure. Daily Letters – Thoughtful reflections to help you see your needs clearly. Gentle Reflection Prompts – Uncover the stories you've been carrying. Tiny, Doable Practices – Small actions to create real emotional space. As one mom said: “Your work has ripple effects because you're nurturing the nurturers.” You deserve that same nurture too. Click here to join the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge and start making your own 1% shifts away from overwhelm and toward a homeschool life that feels good from the inside out. What's Next for Overwhelmed Homeschool Moms Next week, we'll continue with Part 2 of this series, where I share six more things I've learned about homeschool moms. They go even deeper, and I think you'll feel just as held, understood, and equipped to make your homeschool life feel lighter and more aligned. Until then, take one moment today just for you—not because it's earned, but because you need it and you deserve it. Join the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge for Homeschool Moms To the Woman Reading This… If any part of this resonates — if you recognize your own patterns of over-functioning, self-forgetting, or carrying too much — please know you don't have to walk this alone. Maybe safety felt conditional, or you learned to earn love by meeting everyone else's needs.Or maybe you're carrying grief or stories that were never yours to carry. I've walked this path too — from losing myself to returning to myself. If you're ready to step into who you truly are, I'd be honoured to walk beside you. ➤ Learn more about coaching with Teresa here.

Join Me for the 12-Day Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge A homeschool mom self-care challenge that honours you. Homeschool mama, I see you. December is here, and it feels like an avalanche of ALL the things.Every month as a homeschool mom is full, but December? It's a whole new level. You're trying to finish things up, or you’re moving into a unit study on Christmas, you’re purchasing, prepping, planning, and playing—and you just added a part time-job to your full-time job. But as a homeschool mama, when December rolls around, mama ain’t looking after herself, she’s looking, after ALL the things. And though ALL the things are a whole lot of things EVERY other month, December’s ALL the things is an exponential set of things. Though you’re trying to do all the things, fulfill the expectations, and make it magical for your kids, you can’t do a little bit more if you didn’t already incorporate an approach to maintain margins and pursue purposeful living. That's why I'm inviting you to join me for the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge for Homeschool Moms. This isn't another TO DO list. It's a TO GIVE list—a way to give back to yourself. Join the 12 Day Self-Care Challenge Why Self-Care Matters As homeschool moms, we have a unique calling. We're deeply present with our kids, invested in their well-being, and working hard to create meaningful memories and learning experiences. We savor moments of: Watching our kids harmoniously play together (sometimes). Cheering them on as they tackle new challenges. Seeing their excitement as they pursue new interests. Building lifelong memories as a family. But there's another side to this season: The constant stream of emotions (theirs and ours). Sibling squabbles. Complaints and meltdowns. And, of course, the never-ending mundane tasks—laundry, dishes, meals, and errands. Even when we handle these challenges with grace, the emotional and mental investment is enormous. Add the holidays to the mix, and it's no wonder we feel stretched thin. The Secret Ingredient to a (more) Peaceful Holiday Season Here's the thing: you matter too. Your well-being is not just an afterthought—it's the foundation of a happy family life and a peaceful holiday season. Self-care: Refills your energy so you can approach the holidays with calm and joy. Models healthy balance and boundaries for your children. Helps you manage stress and let go of perfection. Strengthens your emotional resilience to handle challenges with patience and grace. Creates space for joy and presence, helping you savor the small, magical moments. When you care for yourself, you're giving your family the best gift of all—a peaceful, grounded, and joyful mama. What You'll Get in the 12-Day Challenge In just fifteen minutes a day—maybe even five—you'll explore simple, practical self-care strategies that fit into your busy December. These strategies aren't just for the holidays; they're tools to carry into the new year, helping you nurture yourself and your family with greater ease and satisfaction. By the end of these 12 days, you'll feel: More energized. More connected to yourself. And more at peace as you move through this beautiful, busy season. And so we must take care of ourselves. Join the 12 Days of Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge Join Me—You Deserve This So, homeschool mama, this is your invitation to take a breath, step back, and remember that you are worth nurturing. Let's do this together. This December, give yourself the gift of care, calm, and connection. Join the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge for Homeschool Moms and rediscover the joy of the season—not just for your family, but for you too. Just fifteen minutes a day. You've got this.

Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #628 is an hour of visionary acoustic improvised music played by The Gaea Star Band with Mariam Massaro on vocals, ukulele, acoustic guitar, mandolin and Native flute, Bob Sherwood on piano and Craig Harris on Native drum and congas. Recorded live on a sultry July day in 2025 at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts. Today's show begins with the appropriately summery “Double Winged Dragonfly”, a sun-soaked summer dusk song with an appealingly languid, drifting structure. “Celebrate Diversity” is a development of our first piece with a gorgeous Native flute coda and a fine, inspiring lyric from Mariam and “Bring It All Back” is a light, skipping folk song led by Mariam's rustic mandolin and bluesy piano from Bob. “Queens Of The Forest” is a lush, languid, mysterious ballad with gorgeous vocals and slowly unfurling, drifting piano and “Let's Embrace Our Grace” is a beautifully developed piece with a fine vocal, driving congas and a graceful power. “Circle Of Light”, originally recorded for Mariam's “Gaea Star Crystal” album is stretched and repurposed into a sprightly, minimalist modern gospel song. We complete today's hour with “A Bevy Of Goddesses”, a summer forest tale told by Mariam in conversation with her soaring Native flute, fundamental Native drum and emotional, R&B-inflected piano from Bob.    Learn more about Mariam here: http://www.mariammassaro.com

Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #592 is an hour of compelling, visionary acoustic improvised music played by the Gaga Star Band with Miriam Massacre on vocals, Native flute, acoustic guitar, mandolin, marimba and ukulele, Bob Sherwood on piano and Craig Harris on congas and Native drum. Produced and recorded live at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts in September of 2024, today's show begins with the jazzy, effervescent rocker “Celebrate Diversity”, a high-energy workout that earns its title with forays into all the favorite music's of the Gaga Star Band. “Carry Me Into Your Heart” is a gorgeous, delicate, shimmering ballad led by Miriam's plaintive acoustic guitar and emotive vocal and “I Am Enough” develops slowly from a beautiful Native flute and piano invention into a rich, sweeping ballad with a lush, echoing vocal from Miriam in conversation with her soaring Native flute. “Double Winged Dragonfly” is a song that often finds its way into the Gaga Star Crystal Radio Hour, always in a radically different form. On today's show it receives a Northern Appalachian feel with a spry bluegrass rhythm flowing from Miriam's chiming mandolin, accompanied ably and with energy by piano and congas. “Dream On” is a fine, bright folk song with a true, lovely vocal from Miriam above a driving groove that leans ever more towards the blues. “Freedom” is a rousing protest folk song given an energized reading and a powerful vocal, and “Vision Quest” from Miriam's LP of the same name rocks with a gorgeous, fundamental power and sense of mystery and adventure that rivals the original, with Miriam's powerful, driving marimba creating a tight, compelling braid of sound with Craig's Native drum and Bob's far eastern piano touches. Today's show closes with the uncompromising rocker “Trust” and the band hits it with a ferocious, tight attack that sends Mariam's powerful prayer home.

Matthew 12:25 But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.True wisdom is timeless.  Whether it was the time of Christ walking the earth or today, the wisdom holds true.  Short of the civil war era, our country has not experienced such divide.  Politics, religion, economics, education, and journalism just to name a few, have driven a great wedge between us.  One of the many results we are witnessing is the sheer lack of civility towards each other.  Whether we agree or disagree with each other's ideas, as Christians we are all called to treat each other with respect.  Many believe they only need to treat others with respect when they are earning respect.  This is not of the Bible.  The Bible tells us we are to respect all individuals.  Every person has equal value and worth in the eyes of God.  For us to disrespect a person places us in a position of judgement against them.   We are not called to judge the person.  On the other hand, we are not being asked to respect the actions of others. This is where we get confused.  We don't like the behavior or actions of someone and we immediately place them as something less than us as a person.  This is a dangerous thing for us to not understand.  We have all heard the phrase, 'love the sinner, hate the sin', this is what this idea is about.  Several years ago a popular slogan began its way around the country.  On its surface it seemed to be innocent and even make sense.  The reality is that it has backfired.  "Celebrate Diversity".  This slogan has not brought us together but driven us apart.  The slogan we must get back to is grounded in who we are as humans.  "Celebrate Similarity, Respect Diversity". When you hear name calling and assault on entire sectors of people, your radar should go off.  This is not the person you want to be following.  This person is simply not being civil or respectful to others.  It doesn't matter their political view, if they are disrespectful, beware! https://rocksolidfamilies.orgSupport the show#Rocksolidfamilies, #familytherapy, #marriagecounseling, #parenting, #faithbasedcounseling, #counseling, #Strongdads, #coaching, #lifecoach, #lifecoaching, #marriagecoaching, #marriageandfamily, #control, #security, #respect, #affection, #love, #purpose, #faith, #affairs, #infidelity

Feeling unseen in the beauty industry as a women of color? Are you using beauty products intended to change your appearance rather than accentuate natural beauty? Most likely they were based on a model that didn't look like you.That all changes today as Melissa Polanco, Founder of Ring of Color beauty brand, shares her passion for celebrating diversity with products that bring out the best of you.Melissa shares her life journey of coming to the U.S., at 18, from the Dominican Republic and struggling to feel part of a culture that didn't look like her. Finding comfort and camaraderie in ESL classes, Melissa thrived in college earning a Bachelor's Degree in Zoology and a Masters in College Counseling, out of love of helping others.It's this intelligent curiosity and profound empathy that ultimately fired up her entrepreneurial spirit to start a Latina owned beauty brand that focused on people of color, who were overlooked in the industry. Melissa aimed to soften the struggle for anyone feeling left out and encourage self love by dedicating products that accentuate natural beauty.Her current lip products come in all shades and types to meet you on any given day. Melissa encourages self care and appreciation to emphasize that you are enough, with no need to conceal or cover up your emotions.She shared her story on Univision's 'Despierta America' last September, helping her realize that not only is she enough, she is going places. But, not without her friends and customers that she values for getting her to this point in her life.With makeup playing such an intimate role in expressing self, we need more owners like Melissa Polanco, who sell more than beauty products; she is gifting us self confidence to step out in the world and feel seen.Read more about Melissa Polanco, her Ring of Color beauty brand and the highlights of today's episode by clicking on this link._______________________________Consuelo is a first gen Peruvian, structural engineer and mother who encourages women, especially women of color, to disregard conformity so their true personalities and talents will make this world a sassy musical rather than a monologue.

Some studies show that when diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is done well within an organization that teams are more successful and innovative and as a result, perform better. As we come together for Celebrate Diversity Month, Heather Lawley shares what DEI means to her and to Sedgwick, how it impacts employee engagement, and why inclusive leaders are good for business. In the podcast, Heather also weighs in on some of the challenges and critical success factors for organizations to consider as they design and execute DEI strategies of their own.

This week, Nick Averwater talks with Jared Cassedy, K-12 Performing Arts Coordinator for Lexington Public Schools in Lexington, Massachusetts, a town of around 35,000 people located ten miles northwest of Boston. Jared is in his 20th year as a music educator, and in this episode he talks about how he sees music education as an important component in creating not just good musicians or good students, but good people, and he'll explain the steps he takes with his students to realize this concept. Our conversation was recorded December 13, 2022. It's broken up in to two episodes, and this is part one.

Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #516 is an hour of visionary acoustic improvisational music by The Gaea Star Band with Mariam Massaro on vocals, Native flute, acoustic guitar, ukulele and dulcimer, Bob Sherwood on piano and Craig Harris on Native drums and congas.  Recorded live at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts, today's show begins with the driving yet meditative “We All Want The Same”, a prayer from Mariam and a fine conversation between voice and Native flute.  “As We Gather Around” grows from the same roots as the first piece before easing into an elegiac, gospel ballad and “Melody Of The Night” is an evocative, minor folk ballad led by Mariam's plaintive vocal and crisp acoustic guitar.  “Hear Me Now” is a beautiful waltz ballad with a gorgeous melody from Mariam and fine shuffling congas from Craig and “Blessed By Life” is a sweet, poignant reading of one of Mariam's most affecting songs, a piece built around Mariam's propulsive dulcimer.  “Alohahey” takes us far from the New England winter to the islands and is a most welcome reminder of sunshine led by Mariam's Hawaiian ukulele and vocal vibe.  “Celebrate Diversity” is a celebratory acoustic rock song with an inspired lyric from Mariam.  Mariam's classic ritual song “We Call In The Elements” is given a rich, stately reading today and we close the show with the beautiful, skipping “La Luna”, an ode to the new moon featuring fine playing from the whole band.

Links Mentioned In This Episode:The Arts Educate the Whole ChildAn Unusual Route to Becoming a Visual Arts Educator“Being in the arts endorsement course saved my life.”Marie Mattinson, visual arts educator at Edgemont Elementary School, is this week's guest. Marie graduated with a bachelor's in psychology. She worked as a PE teacher and loved working as an aide for an autistic student. She completed the requirements for a teaching license while teaching part time (including special ed math, third-grade, and after-school programs). After teaching third-grade full-time for 12 years, Marie hit burnout because of testing and expectations. ColleaguesLisa Gardner and Diane Ames convinced her to enroll in the BYU ARTS Partnership's Arts Integration Endorsement program. “Being in the arts endorsement course  saved my life, really. I was happy again. I was happy to be with the kids and as I was happier, and we were creating things together in all art forms the kids were happy, and it created a cycle of everybody being better and happier.”After being hired as a visual art teacher, Marie earned her master's in Art Education. She works to integrate science and math into the visual arts curriculum in all kinds of ways. Marie is a recent recipient of the Beverley Taylor Sorenson's Legacy Award for Excellence in arts education for elementary visual arts instruction in the state of Utah.An Arts-Integrative Pedagogy Actively Engages Struggling StudentsMarie shares how the arts deeply impacted the learning of her own child: “My son was struggling with long-term memory, retrieval, processing and comprehension. His comprehension is really low. He has ADHD and I just watched him crumble as a first grader. As a second grader, he struggled to write and stay engaged; he hated school, he cried every day. PJ day was the best day because it was the one day we didn't have to have a tantrum about clothes. We had tantrums about everything else.When he learned his vowels, he was in Miss Gardner's class. They learned through songs, so he can decode and read so well because of music. Then in third grade, our music teacher taught him multiplication through songs, and he can do multiplication because of songs. His French third-grade teacher used movement and dance, (she was also in the Arts Integration Endorsement class) and he learned French that way, because he's in the French immersion program. Then, I realized that I needed to be more patient and engage all the kids because if my kid was struggling, I needed to be a better teacher and be more patient. I watched him do so many things that he couldn't control. Instead of, ‘Why won't you just sit and listen?' ‘Why won't you just do this?' He can't. Before my lived experience with my son, I didn't realize that kids who struggle with ADHD and other things, they can't. They don't mean to be like that. Yet, the pedagogy that creates confidence in learning, connections, and success are the arts.”Educate the Whole Child: Teach Social-Emotional SkillsMarie is passionate about educating the whole child. Students need to learn the skill of knowing how to care for other people, be empathetic and good listeners. Marie believes these skills are just as important as any academic curriculum you could ever put in front of them. Many lessons in her third-grade classroom focus on people: “Let's look at cultures, let's look at who is in our class. How can we learn more about them? How can we represent their beliefs and their interests in an authentic, empathetic way that celebrates them?” For example, including this social-emotional learning during math class: students can practice empathy and listening skills, collaboration skills. When students start breaking down or showing frustration because the math concept isn't landing, teachers can help support that student's emotions first, then work together on the math concept: “It all matters.”Using Art to Celebrate Diversity and Create Culturally-Responsive Classrooms: Puzzling Out Students' Ancestral CountriesMarie's school is extremely diverse: the French dual-immersion teachers hail from Rwanda, Spain, Austria, Ukraine, Switzerland, Morocco, and two are from France; students are comprised of all different socio-economic backgrounds and neighborhoods, and include a lot of second-language learners, and students from Columbia, Brazil, Uruguay, Congo, and Haiti. Second graders are given a puzzle piece made from paper. They find out which country their ancestors came from. Students learn about their ancestors, where they came from: students find a picture of a monument or landmark from that country. Marie helps each of her 650 students—some of whom are first-generation immigrants—make a contour line of the monument on their puzzle piece, paint a value-scale, and fit all the puzzle pieces together. A discussion is next: “students talk about how different and diverse we all are, and yet! We all fit together, and we live together. We can share these great things with each other.”Arts Educator Collaborates with Classroom TeachersBecause Marie was first a classroom teacher before becoming a visual art educator, her collaboration with classroom teachers carries weight: “When I say, ‘I promise, trust me, this is going to work and it's going to engage your kids and you will be happier,' teachers believe me. I do a lot of the work for them in the beginning. In fact, I dragged them. I've dragged a lot of people along. I'm happy to do it, because it takes a few years. I think one of the fifth-grade teachers, she took over one of the integrated projects that we'd been doing and did it on her own in her classroom. I mean, how great is that? She's doing it herself now.”Successful STEM Arts-Integration Collaborations: The Importance of Planning AheadAs the arts educator who chooses projects and curriculum and teaches visual art skills Monday-Thursday, sometimes teachers ask Marie, “Hey, we're learning this in science, do you think you could do that in your classroom? and I'll respond, “I'll see if I can fit it in, or no, we've got to do that on a Friday.” Fridays are for integrated projects—sometimes students spend two hours in the art room making clay ocarinas as part of an integrated project to complement the classroom curriculum.Co-teaching is an effective way to integrate the arts with STEM: the classroom teacher reminds the students what was talked about in science or math and asks, “Why is that working?” Marie asks questions to relate the science or math topic to a visual art theme, so that the kids find the connections between the art and the science, or the art and the math.  Marie explains the value of co-teaching, planning, and arts integration with STEM: “Why are we doing this? We could make a pretty picture if we wanted to, but that's not our goal. Our goal is to help students understand science. What is art doing to help you understand science or social studies? As other teachers see the artwork go up around the school, they talk and they're like, ‘How do we get in there? How do we get scheduled?' And I say, ‘Well, we have to sit and plan because if we don't sit and plan, it ends up being me doing a whole bunch of extra artwork.'”Strengthen Student Learning by Inviting Various Art-Form Educators to Co-Create with Classroom TeachersProfessional development with arts integration strengthens student learning by cultivating arts skills and offering resources to teachers. The BYU ARTS Partnership sends a music educator, a drama educator, a dance educator, or a different visual art educator, to Marie's school. The school's teachers decide which units are not as strong or lacking some sort of integration with any art form. We send those ideas to those arts educators and they come with prepared lessons and ideas on how to integrate those. The arts educators work with each and talk them through the lesson and help create the unit's lessons. The educators practice the lessons so that the classroom teachers feel more confident. Ideas start flowing from the teachers: “Oh, maybe I could do this!” “This gives me a little bit of a start.” The best part about this process is that the classroom teachers didn't have to come up with it all on their own, since classroom teachers are always short on time. The synergy among the classroom teachers, whole grade-level teams, and the arts educators creates a beautiful synergy of ideas and a product that is greater than the sum of its parts.Amy Rosenvall is the district science educator who is part of this research. Amy says, “Well, the science piece actually means this. So how can we really make it authentic science and art?” So integration isn't, “Here's this art project that represents the science, but the art is actually doing the science.”Research Shows 100% Engagement in Science + Arts LessonsFor Marie's master degree, she created a capstone study focusing on the ecosystems unit from the sixth-grade curriculum. She integrated every art form into that entire unit. Marie explains: “The data showed 100% engagement, every single time, whenever we integrated with an art form. This is a class that had 70% low economic status, seven IEPs out of 18 students, three students with autism. I think maybe three were gifted, which has their own needs to be challenged. So very, it was a really challenging class with 100% engagement. One particular student struggled with depression—his head was down on the desk all the time. Yet, he danced with Mr. Roberts, he painted with me, he did music with Mrs. Lee, and he did drama with Mr. Roberts. Even if the effort had been to engage this one depressed student, it is totally worth it.” Classroom Teachers Do Not Have to Be Arts ExpertsMarie shares a story about her experience with an art form she isn't strong in: “In the Arts Integration Endorsement, I loved the singing—I struggle with singing, I'm not confident. I remember one time when I was teaching third grade, I was trying to teach my students a song. They said, “Mrs. M, can you just go get the music teacher?” I was like, “No, thanks a lot.” I remember Jen Purdy saying “You don't have to sing to do music.” That gave me confidence. Likewise, dance and drama don't have to be a production. The integration endorsement was eye-opening: I learned to engage people in all the art forms without having expertise in all the art forms. When my students learned about ecosystems with the music, they didn't sing, they followed the flow of energy while Mrs. Lee ate a piece of cheese, drank some water, started playing her cello, and began walking around. It was incredible. Then students played the cups and did rhythms. Arts integration is much more than just being an expert in one form of art.Because arts integration can create 100% engagement in the classroom, students deserve the arts. They deserve engaged learning—not the non-interactional learning that happens when reading a book and answering questions on a Chromebook—but the kind that happens when the class reads together and has a discussion, the kind that happens when Marie's daughter sits in the backseat of the car and says,  “Mom, did you know this about molecules?” And I was like, “How did you know that?” Because Mr. Robertson taught us and we were bumping around and we were doing that.” This is the kind of learning that fills students' cups, reduces isolation, increases engagement, and creates shared learning. The arts are socially interacting, collaborating, letting us see our humaneness.  Artful Teaching is Vital for Teachers' Sanity + ResilienceMarie tells a story of collaborating with a former middle-school math teacher who came to elementary school because of licensing issues. This teacher had taught only math for years and years. Marie explains: “She was terrified of literacy and I said, ‘No, no, literacy can be fun. I also struggled in the beginning. But teaching can be fun. We just need to integrate.' She said, ‘I don't know…What about Disney shorts? Those are empathetic. They always have a lesson and they're engaging. They're colorful, you can teach all of the art forms, and you can get so much out of literacy.'  After watching the shorts, I came in and I taught and the class did a mind map of three different Disney shorts. Then she just said, ‘I didn't know literacy could be fun for me. This is the first time this entire year I've been excited to come to school. Because I can't wait to share this with the kids. And it's fun. It's a fun way to do literacy.'How to mind-map:Mind Mapping with Tony Buzan (video)Mind Maps for Kids: An Introduction (book)The Mind Map Book: How to Use Radiant Thinking to Unlock Your Brain's Untapped Potential (book)Disney short films for mind-mapping:Lou (requires fee to watch)For the BirdsDisney is good at making social issues feel applicable and personal—students can empathize with topics like a lost sweater in “Lou.” Incorporating media arts into literacy and social-emotional learning becomes easy when difficult topics become humanized and real. Marie recounts that the teacher struggling with literacy felt surprised that sixth-graders could discuss topics like these, and Marie reminds listeners that third-graders are capable of meaningful conversations about difficult social topics, because it helps them become better people. Tina recalls that a professor of hers “never calls them children, instead she says they're ‘little humans.' They are little and we're all having this experience together. What a beautiful way to think about that.”Please subscribe to the Artful Teaching podcast on your favorite platform: Amazon, Google, Spotify, Pandora. We would love to have you as a subscriber.

By instilling in young people the need to participate in one's knowledge about the importance of voicing an opinion while respecting other's point of view, we learn to appreciate and respect other people. The more we know about other people, cultures, and civilization, the better we learn to understand and respect differences. People can have differing opinions and vote differently, but respect is key to working together to make the world better for future generations.  MORE | Click here to subscribe to Education Matters on Apple Podcasts.

“You have to have a good business plan. A business plan is like a blueprint. If you go to start a house, what are you going to do? You're not just going to buy a bunch of lumber, buy a bunch of bricks, dig a big hole – you need to have a plan. And this plan is your blueprint,” shares Terry Brizz. Tune in to Million Dollar Monday as Founder of Galaxy Balloons shares valuable advice for building and growing your business.  Chapter Summaries 00:57- Introducing Terry Brizz03:25 - Selling Balloons08:07 - Competitive Advantage11:03 - Business Struggles17:29 - Your Word is Everything 19:30 - Key AdviceKey Takeaways Have a competitive Advantage.This is so important when you talk about starting a business. Why is somebody going to buy your product? What's going to differentiate you from the competition? You have to have your elevator speech and be able to tell in a minute or two why exactly your business is better.Build your credibility. Your word is everything. Let them know you have a problem right up front and be forward about it. Let them know what the new solution is that you're working on. It's much better to be proactive than reactive. Develop a really good thorough business plan. Be a visionary and see the big picture, understand your market.Be a good communicator. Have integrity. Be open, honest, and trustworthy with your suppliers, customers and employees. Celebrate Diversity.Steer the Ship. If you find yourself down shoveling the coal, then who is steering the ship? So as a business owner, you have to learn to delegate things, just take it back because you need to be up top and you need to be okay. Where are we going to be in six months, in one year, five years from now and steer the ship. I think the number one reason why most people in business don't get wealthy is because they don't learn how to delegate because not all work is created equal. Resource LinksCompany LinkedIn Terry Brizz LinkedIn  Company website Terry Brizz mentions the Hit TV series, Shark Tank.
