"I am impressed with the mission of what CES is doing. For a paper in college many moons ago, I wrote on the importance of Arts Education and how to integrate it into the curriculum. I had an awesome fourth grade teacher, Mrs. Diane Monti: she loves music. She sings and plays the piano. She gathered us all around it to sing multiplication tables to Broadway show melodies. I learned Roy G Biv to a recording for science class. We learned a dance about it on the Maypole. Shortly before she retired, she taught her state history class about Wisconsin geography by having them learn about the state's counties in a song. They then performed it for a spring concert. I wish more teachers could get how to be like she was.
