Here is the third from the workshop, teaching basic concepts to younger kids. As I sing this song we are either outside making a rainbow by spraying water with a hose (weather permitting), or we are inside using a prism.

Spot on!

It is very important to communicate scientific findings about global change in appealing ways.

Our usual habit of just publishing in b/w bar graphs probably didn't help to make the wider society aware of the extent of the situation.

Not exactly the interactions of factors you asked for, but can't resist mentioning this figure of the World Resource Institute, comparing the consequences of a 1.5 vs 2° C world.

@s4f <- anyone has other good examples for the visualization of global change?

The second Workshop is called . It's presents some basic concepts. Before I sing this song we talk about molecules. After I sing this song, we pretend we are molecules at different temperatures.

Before I, as , sing this about the and (the last in the workshop for young children), we all hold hands and go around in a circle. We notice a circle has no beginning and no end.

After all the songs, games, art projects, seed dissecting, and seed planting we did, it is very relaxing.

Here is the third song about from the workshops that I do for young children. After inspecting the anatomy of soaked bean seeds, we pretend we are seeds, spliting, pushing down our roots, pushing through the dirt towards the sunlight and unfurling our leaves

I ask the kids what kind of plant they are. One little boy told me he was an Apple Crisp .

What's your take on this study from New Jersey? They use a much more accurate (IMHO) way to track teacher retention that differentiates between transfer *between schools* and those that leave the profession: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/ab

"Richmond’s riverfront is gaining a new center whose purpose will be to introduce thousands of area schoolchildren to the James River each year."

What an awesome project!

"On June 1, India cut a slew of foundational topics from tenth grade textbooks, including the periodic table of elements, Darwin's theory of evolution, the Pythagorean theorem, sources of energy, sustainable management of natural resources and contribution of agriculture to the national economy..."

Hardly spells well for India's future as a science and technology driven economy.

In the -Singer workshop on ! I repeat the Teeny Weeny Electrons and the Opposites Attract songs and then do this song "Magnetized" After which we make magnets and race "cars" using the magnets we made!

This is the first song I ever dared to do a solo on. No I am NOT a guitar player... but I played one on this song!
