  17. Scene: A teacher from another discipline really wants to include -X-. They normally just make/watch/do -X- as a stand alone example of 'arts integration'. Explain how they could authentically integrate -X- into their content. Your Task: Transformation! • Art: Transform the Holiday Project! • Theater: Transform the DGEK (dead guys everyone knows) • Music: Transform the Disney Film (or 'my sub plan') • Dance: Transform the Dance of the Chickens!
