Every year, the platinum teaching staff of Achievement First Bushwick Middle school is showered with gratitude from scholars, families, and a leadership team that never ceases to run out of grace and love. This year's teacher appreciation week brought surprises that included letterman varsity cardigans, gift cards, letters/videos from our scholars and families, poems written by colleagues, multiple breakfast burritos and so many other signs that served as a reminder that talent and hard work will always be appreciated in Bushwick. It's just one more reason to take pride in the pride.

Thanks for caring! copyright William Heffner This poem is inspired by and dedicated to caring teachers and especially those associated with Quincy Community Schools in Quincy Michigan. Thank God for caring Teachers!

"A Change of Seasons" is the first track from the EP "A Change of Seasons" by United States progressive metal band Dream Theater. It is a metal suite with lyrics written by drummer Mike Portnoy and is the band's fourth longest song, behind "Octavarium" (24 minutes), "In the Presence of Enemies" (25 minutes, 38 seconds), and "Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence" (42 minutes, 4 seconds). According to Portnoy's answer to a question in his website FAQ: "Basically, I took a lot of personal incidents, like losing my mother and a couple of things that happened in my life, and I wrote them into the lyrics. Like, on a smaller scale, I wouldn't try to compare it with this, but when I listen to Pink Floyd's The Wall, there are a lot of emotions there - just a lot of frustrations and anger. He goes full circle, the character. He has a child and just as he's about to pass on and die, now his son is going to have to live the life he did and go through those same experiences." This song is often considered Dream Theater's magnum opus, along with Metropolis Pt.1: The Miracle and the Sleeper, showing their ability not only to compose and play their instruments, but also their lyrical maturity. Movements: The Crimson Sunrise (00:00 - 03:50) Instrumental. The opening of the suite with a funeral-like solo guitar playing a musical theme, which is slowly built upon by the other instruments, eventually climaxing in a stormy mixture led by the guitar and keyboard. It is related to fall, in which we ...

An eminent personality in the field of music, Dr. Prabha Atre has earned for herself a place of distinction as a brilliant thinker, performer, composer and teacher of music. She is one of the senior most, front ranking female vocalists in the country representing the Kirana gharaanaa, today. A Science and Law graduate, she also holds a Doctorate in music. A former Assistant Producer with the All India Radio, former Professor and Head of the Department of Music, SNDT Women's University, Mumbai, and former Producer-Director of the recording company `Swarashree', devoted only to Classical Music, Dr. Prabha Atre has a rare blend of skill and insight. She has displayed constant innovation and creative endeavor which has distinguished her from other vocalists, both in the classical and light classical idioms. She is working as a committee member for several social, educational and cultural institutions. Dr. Atre has setup `Dr. Prabha Atre Foundation' which aims to strive for the cause of Indian classical music and performing arts. Dr. Atre has authored academic books on the various aspects of music that are especially relevant to the present day performance. Her Doctoral thesis on `Sargam' or the use of sol-fa names as musical material, which is perhaps a pioneering work on the subject, bears testimony to this. Her first book `Swaramayee' which is a compilation of many of her articles on music and has bagged the Maharashtra State Govt. Award in 1989 is a classic example of her ...
First of all, more than anything else, Barbara Jordan was a teacher. And whether she was explaining the Constitutional crisis brought about by the Watergate scandal or rallying the country and her fellow Democrats at the national convention speeches or talking to elementary school students at their school, Barbara Jordan took every event in her life as an opportunity to teach, and what a teacher she was. I met Barbara Jordan 30 years ago in December of 1978 when she had announced her ...
Thank You Poem For Teachers: More Than A Teacher To Me
Every year we try to show all of our teachers, but whether it's a scheduling conflict, reluctance to be on camera, or simple oversight, we never get 100% of the teachers in the video. To that, we apologize, but would like to thank every Bloomingdale educator for all they do. Teacher Appreciation Week - May 4-8, 2009 poem by Joanna Fuchs
This is a poem I wrote on Saturday that I was going to perform at one of my school's inservices, but I will be unable to. I decided to record it in video form and have my mom email it to all of the teachers since it is Teacher Appreciation Week May 4th-8th. This is, by far, the longest poem I have ever written.

Bulunggitj Wunungmurra is the 15 year old son of Bruce Burrngupurrngu Wunungmurra, a remarkable yidaki craftsman who was also a first-rate player in his youth. A number of today's best yidaki players in eastern Arnhem Land credit Burrngupurrngu as their inspiration and their teacher. Among them was the late Mr M. Mununggurr, the original yidaki player for the Yothu Yindi band. In the iDIDJ Store, I described this yidaki as follows: "Those with an appreciation for history will find delight in this yidaki: it was the first instrument made for sale - almost 2 years ago - by the son of legendary Yirritja master Burrngupurrngu... Provenance aside, this is a scorching yidaki by Bulunggitj and a telling testament of the father-son genealogy". You can read more of it here: www.ididj.com.au This yidaki is best described as fast, responsive, lively and fun. It is faultless acoustically, having all the qualities one looks for in a high-end traditional instrument from eastern Arnhem Land. Outstanding acoustic balance and depth, a rich complex voice, and an easy overtone note are just some of the features that will enchant you. I particularly like the way tongued accents respond on this stick. There is a nice, weighty, blunt feel to these which gives total satisfaction and gets those endorphins flowing in the brain. If your tongue is too sharp or your technique a little bit off, the accents still sound great! Construction is noteworthy. Weighing in at only 2 kg and with uniformly thin ...
