A Multi-Genre Presentation! And a Fluency Exercise……..
Celebrating Veterans – Nov 11, 2013!
You're A Grand Old Flag You're a grand old flag, You're a high flying flag, And forever, in peace, may you wave You're the emblem of the land I love, The home of the free and the brave. Every heart beats true Beneath the Red, White and Blue, Where there's never a boast or brag, Should old acquaintance be forgot Keep your eye on that Grand Old Flag!
THE ARMY SONG Over hill, over daleAs we hit the dusty trail,And those caissons go rolling along.In and out, hear them shout,Counter march and right about,And those caissons go rolling along.Then it's hi! hi! hee!In the field artillery,Shout out your numbers loud and strong,For where ever you go,You will always knowThat those caissons go rolling along.
NAVY ! Anchors Aweigh, my boys, Anchors Aweigh. Farewell to college joys, We sail at break of day-ay-ay-ay. Through our last night on shore, Drink to the foam, Until we meet once more, Here's wishing you a happy voyage home.
MARINE CORPS From the Halls of MontezumaTo the Shores of Tripoli;We fight our country's battlesIn the air, on land and sea;First to fight for right and freedom And to keep our honor clean; We are proud to claim the title of United States Marine.
AIR FORCE Off we go into the wild blue yonder, Climbing high into the sun;Here they come zooming to meet our thunder, At them boys, Give 'er the gun! (Give 'er the gun now!) Down we dive, spouting our flame from under,Off with one helluva roar! We live in fame or go down in flame. Hey! Nothing can stop the U.S. Air Force!
COAST GUARD We're always ready for the call,We place our trust in Thee.Through howling gale and shot and shell,To win our victory."Semper Paratus" is our guide,Our pledge, our motto, too.We're "Always Ready," do or die!Aye! Coast Guard, we fight for you.
God Bless America God bless America. Land that I love. Stand beside her and guide her Through the night with a light from above. From the mountains to the prairies To the oceans white with foam. God bless America My home sweet home… God bless America My home sweet home.
Why Sing? It’s a Joyous Art Form
Why Sing? It’s a Joyous Art Form It’s Reading
\ From: Rebecca I Sent: Tuesday, April 12, 2011 11:04 PM To: RASINSKI, TIMOTHY Subject: Singing and Fluency Hi Dr. Rasinski, Over the summer and again in October you spoke at Teachers College about the power of singing. I challenged myself in October to begin singing with my students and they have been singing ever since. I've thanked you once and have to thank you AGAIN. I have never seen so much progress in reading. Everyone of my first graders are reading on grade level (or higher) and they love to sing. Reader's Theater has also made a difference. You have changed the way I teach. My students enter my classroom most mornings with their current song playing. They hum or sing throughout the day. I am so proud of these joyful learners. Thank you again, Becky I South Street School Danbury, CT

“I always thought of myself as a humanities person, but I liked electronics. Then I read something that one my heroes, Edwin Land of Polaroid, said about the importance of people who could stand at the intersection of humanities and sciences, and I decided that is what I wanted to do.” Steve Jobs

And yet, art is increasingly diminished in education “We live in a time that puts a premium on the measurement of outcomes, … on the need to be absolutely clear about what we want to accomplish. We like our data hard and our methods stiff – we call it rigor.” Elliot Eisner (2004)
