21:21:53 From Val Beatson : Valerie Beatson West Palm Beach FL
21:30:35 From Helen Tuckey : There’s a story “Commotion in the Ocean” and when I visit kindergartens as a musician, we do this with sound effects in the story on violin and viola, but then we have the kids using their bodies to be the various animals and respond to the sound. The sting ray is very popular too
21:31:02 From Marlene Yeni-Maitland : Lovely Adriana!
21:31:04 From Helen Tuckey : Loved this, Adriana!
21:31:19 From Laura Liben : Thanks you so much Adriana!
21:33:00 From Anthony Molinaro : Great ideas Adriana.
21:37:25 From Mona : Thank you, Katherine for the lovely sharing! Learnt how to use other instruments for teaching…Thanks!
21:37:55 From Jill Gleim : Wonderful ideas Adriana, thank you.
21:38:01 From Mona : Thank you Helen for a lovely share on working with seniors… ;o)
21:38:38 From Rebecca : Wonderful everyone. Thank you for the inspiration!
21:40:44 From Rebecca : We really could reach more people this way, actually. I wonder how much we could offer these kinds of classes to people at home who would not otherwise have access to this...
21:45:22 From Anthony Molinaro : I liked the idea of Turning off the instructor video and getting them away from staring at the screen.
21:46:36 From Rebecca : I wonder if they could pass a movement within the gallery view.
21:46:37 From Katherine Smith : LOVE that, Weronika!
21:46:55 From Jacob Rhodebeck : Yes, we love that!
21:47:05 From Nicole Brockmann : I think there’s also a difference in engagement between when the teacher is looking at the images of the students on the screen vs. when the teacher is actually looking at and talking to the webcam. It feels weird for us, but it makes the people on the other end feel like you’re really looking at them rather than looking slightly away from them.
21:47:08 From Mona : That’s great, Weronika!! Gonna “steal” from you now..Lololol
21:47:09 From Weronika Balewski : The book with glum fish is “Haroun and the Sea of Stories” by Salman Rushdie
21:47:49 From Laura Liben : How old were the kids you did this with, with the objects. Weronika?
21:48:09 From Weronika Balewski : Laura, they were 11 and 12 (6th graders)
21:48:44 From Laura Liben : Thx!
21:49:13 From Anthony Molinaro : Loretta is that really your background? That’s wild.
21:49:29 From Alice Mosley : I haven't got a gallery view on my screen. Is there a way of getting it, or have you programmed it for seeing only the speaker?
21:49:49 From Loretta Fois : Yes, the head chakra. Given to me from my daughter
21:50:00 From Weronika Balewski : Thank you Nicole for that comment! Alice, you can do it now. Top right corner, click the 9 little squares
21:50:26 From Alan Berquist : Or click Speaker View so it switches to Gallery View
21:50:50 From Jacob Rhodebeck : For children I imagine where the teacher is looking makes a big difference
21:50:57 From Marlene Yeni-Maitland : From Marlene Yeni-Maitland to Alice Mosley...Hi!
21:50:59 From Rebecca : I was thinking about something for Chris to make it silly for his college students. Like something Brady Bunch like
21:53:01 From Leslie Upchurch : Weronika, do you have blue light glasses?
21:53:22 From Weronika Balewski : No i need to get some would love recommendations for blue light glasses!
21:53:44 From Loretta Fois : Can you send a link for the glasses?

21:54:48 From Marlene Yeni-Maitland : It cuts down on fatigue
