"The dancing continues to be the best part of each era. But suddenly I'm wondering what happened to the art? We discuss some popular artists, but don't see hardly any examples. It seems like some famous art pieces of the time could be included to…"
"The study I wish to comment on is, "Creative Classes: An Artful Approach to Improving Performance ", by Elizabeth Blair. Around the nation, eight schools in low income areas were selected, to try & turn them around. They were schools that continued…"
" I would like to do a play party at school possibly in the fall. We will be getting a new music teacher , & maybe this person would collaborate with myself on doing this. I could ask the PE teacher for help also. One of my big ideas for next year…"

" I really enjoyed the waltz this morning! A long time ago, when I was in college, I took private dance lessons & learned the foxtrot, the waltz, cha cha, rhumba, & tango. It was a blast! I also studied disco & some more modern dance moves. Off & on,…"

Good Day,
How is everything with you, I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and deemed it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you,but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on ( pollardjames95@gmail.com ) for the full details.Have a nice day
Thanks God bless.
Hi Cindy,
Thank you so much for your heartfelt and poignant contributions to our class discussions and the class segment reflections! Your teaching experiences in the Bush gave you terrific insights; I appreciated your heartbeat connection to the Yakima Welcome Dance.
As we look to future teachings of the class, yes more visual art! Yes - a costume trunk! Thank you for your feedback!! It is important and spot-on.
I love your focus on "Show Kindness" next year; I'll help with a school-wide playparty if you want. Your students will resonate with the kindness rally and the focused 4 dances and tableau activity (love the modification to have the kids work with all 4 pieces of art!). You brought up the idea that students learn more when teachers have fun teaching. A great reminder for us all!
Thanks for your detailed look at the evolution of comics; it was neat to see!
I'm appreciative to have gotten to know you this summer! Looking forward to dancing together again soon =)
