Catholic Health Services (CHS) recently presented its Living the Mission Award to Maribeth Mackie for exemplifying the CHS mission values of respect, justice, integrity and excellence. Mackie was nominated for her outstanding qualities and received the award from President and CEO Alan D. Guerci, MD, at CHS’s corporate offices in Rockville Centre. “Maribeth is

committed to exceptional performance, efficiency and quality,” said a colleague. “She is a top performer in the MYHR Service Center, always going the extra mile for her coworkers and the employees supported by the Service Center. She has gone out of her way on many occasions to help her fellow employees, whether helping them to meet a loan deadline or facilitating tuition reimbursement. She has a smile in her

voice and a friendly hello at all times.” From 2002, Mackie was a Human Resources Department associate and volunteer coordinator at St. Joseph Hospital (originally New Island Hospital, before the hospital became part of Catholic Health Services in 2010). She transferred to the CHS Services division in 2014 to join the MYHR team as a shared service specialist, where she has continued to put into practice principles that reflect CHS’s identity as an organization that “commits itself to those in need” and respects the “dignity of each person.” A Massapequa Park resident, Mackie has always given generously of her time and energy to help others. Over the years, she has served as a caretaker for beloved family members, dedicating herself to their well-being.

to raise awareness about the limited options that children born and diagnosed as being medically frail, chronically ill or suffering from any type of life threatening condition(s) have as far as services available to help them when and/or if they leave the hospital. These children have medical conditions that often require intensive nursing care, and other services that, if are available, are very fragmented and difficult to coordinate. The daunting task of home care is extremely overwhelming, especially without an agency available to coordinate the services needed to support such child at home. Until Angela’s House, there were no local specialized homes or facilities available that could care for these children and their unique needs. The nearest facilities were often out of state, leaving families in a very difficult position – have their child in a setting where they would receive quality care and travel hours to see them, or place them in a nonage appropriate setting and have them close to home. These voids in the system make a horrifying situation even worse. Angela’s House, founded in 1992, offers hope for families and children living with severe medical conditions. Their home care programs works with over 600 children that live at home with their parents, by coordinating the home care services needed to support these children living at home. This may include services such as: medical equipment, nursing support, therapies, medications and making their homes handicapped accessible. Angela’s House also has three beautiful

Blueﬁsh Tournament Registration If hours of fishing followed by a tailgate party with hot dogs, beverages, snacks, raffles, awards and prizes sounds like a perfect day to you, then you’ll want to sign up for the 31st Annual Town of Oyster Bay Bluefish Tournament, scheduled for Sunday, September 18th, according to Councilman Chris J. Coschignano. “The Town’s Bluefish Tournament is a great allday sporting event with wonderful prizes and great camaraderie,” Councilman Coschignano said, adding that the tournament runs from 4:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. “The entrance fee for the tournament, which is open to anglers of all ages, is $30 for Town residents and $40 for non-residents. Registration is limited to the first 350 boats, so sign up early.” C o u n c i l m a n Coschignano went on to say that additional rules for the tournament, which is sponsored by the Town’s Department of Parks and Oyster Bay Marine Supply, are contained in the registration form, which is available at all Town facilities and at Oyster Bay Marine Supply, 294

South Street, Oyster Bay. Councilman Coschignano noted that all contestants must be pre-registered. All those who register before September 11th will receive a tournament T-shirt. All contestants will automatically be entered in a special raffle, with great prizes including Solstice inflatable boats and Mercury outboards, rods, reels, ice chests, water skis, restaurant certificates and much more. C o u n c i l m a n Coschignano continued on to say that along with plaques, winners of first through 10th places will receive gift certificates in the following amounts: first place - $2,000; second place - $1,000; third place $750; fourth place - $600; fifth and sixth places $500; seventh and eighth places - $400; ninth and 10th places - $300. Winners of 11th and 12th places will receive a $200 gift certificate and 13th, 14th and 15th place winners will each received a $100 gift certificate. Raffle winners must be present to receive their prizes, which will be presented at the tailgate party scheduled for 3 p.m. C o u n c i l m a n

Coschignano indicated that the co-sponsors of this year’s Bluefish Tournament include: US Pay Group, Bowne AE&T Group, Wall’s Wharf, Greg Van Dyke Building, BMW of Oyster Bay, Mill Max Corporation, Sagamore Collision, Zorn’s Chicken and Ribs, Duffy’s Bait and Tackle, Compass Rose, Solstice Inflatables, and North Shore Fire Equipment. “Fishing is indeed a sport for all ages that offers everything one would want for a day of fun … the tranquility of being out in the water, the adrenaline rush of feeling that first big tug on your fishing line and, in the case of our tournament, the spirit of competition,” Councilman Coschignano said. “Add to that the possibility of winning impressive prizes and you have the Town of Oyster Bay Bluefish Tournament. Even if you don’t beat the tournament record of 19.05 pounds, for a fishing enthusiast, it will surely be the perfect Sunday.” For further information, contact the Parks Department, Recreation Division, at 516.797.4125.

program. To date, NEFCU has awarded nearly $1.1 million in scholarships to Long Island students over the past 10 years. To apply for this scholarship, applicants needed to have at least 100 hours of documented community service, a four-year overall high school grade of 90 or above, and be a recent recipient of NEFCU’s Making a Difference Family Scholarship or High School Scholarship programs. Ms. Liriano achieved a 98.1 grade point average; was vice president of her senior class; a section leader of Crescendo, a nationally recognized show choir; member and officer of the On Tour Company drama club; and a member of Express Yourself, a club where students are

paired with physically and cognitively disabled youth. In addition, she is a Girl Scout who received the Bronze, Silver and Gold awards. For her Silver Award, she enhanced the after-school program at her church and helped build a library. For her Gold Award, she published a children’s book on testing anxiety. “It never ceases to amaze us how incredibly gifted and talented these students are, year after year,” said Valerie Garguilo, vice president of marketing and community relations at NEFCU. “We’re extremely proud of our Making a Difference Scholarship program, because we’re able to help so many extraordinary students reach their potential. It’s the best investment we can make on Long Island.”

A Juicy Way To Enjoy A Healthier Lifestyle

(NAPSI)—There’s good news for those who have embraced drinking fresh fruit and vegetable juices as a way to pursue a more healthful diet: Enjoying such juices just got easier. That’s because a leading juice retailer that is also recognized as a healthy lifestyle brand has revealed that it’s expanding its squeezed-to-order, fresh

juice offerings nationally. The fresh, made-to-order juices, available at Jamba Juice, incorporate highnutrient and on-trend whole foods including kale, beets, cucumbers, apples, oranges and chia seeds. They’re available in a variety of flavors, including: • Tropical Greens—a combination of super

greens, apple, pineapple and chia • Veggie Harvest—a mixture of beet and carrot juices with super greens, apple and ginger • Carrot Cayenne—a blend of carrot and apple juices with the added kick of ginger and cayenne. To learn more, visit www. JambaJuice.com.

Founders of the upstate nonprofit, Hudson Valley Honor Flight, are bringing their event to the Big Apple! The first-ever Big Apple Honor Flight will take NYC’s Greatest Generation, veterans of World War II, on the “Flight of a Lifetime” next year on their inaugural trip on April 29th, 2017. Organizers of Big Apple Honor Flight have started the planning process and are looking for volunteers and veterans to make their mission possible. The group has launched www. BigAppleHonorFlight. com, which contains additional information on how to get involved in the planning. Applications to apply to be a veteran honored on the flight can also be found on the website. They plan to take 75 WWII veterans on their first flight from NYC in the spring. These spots will be filled on a first come, first served basis. “The purpose of today’s announcement is to spread the word to WWII veterans and their family members that Big Apple Honor Flight is here to serve New York City’s heroes of the Greatest Generation,” said

Becky Maher, Co-Founder and Chairwoman of Big Apple Honor Flight. “It is our goal to also recruit a few good men and women from the NYC area who have a shared interest in honoring our veterans to fill some important volunteer roles over the next few months. It takes a village, or in this case, a “city that never sleeps,” to put together a true Honor Flight experience. We look forward to working with the talent and patriotism that we know resides in the Big Apple.” Big Apple Honor Flight is a hub of the national Honor Flight Network whose mission is to transport veterans to Washington D.C. to see the memorials built in their honor and to receive the recognition they deserve for all of their sacrifices. BAHF’s first one-day, all-expense-paid trip for these veterans will depart from John F. Kennedy International Airport on an American Airlines charter flight. The national Honor Flight Network includes more than 130 hubs in 44 states across the country. Since its inception in 2005,

over 159,703 veterans have been flown to D.C. on an Honor Flight. In 2015 alone, Honor Flight hubs serviced 20,886 veterans nationally. Not until now has an official Honor Flight been organized out of New York City, where the population of WWII veterans is estimated to be in the thousands. “Of all the wars in our nation’s history, it is World War II that threatened the very existence of America as a culturally diverse and free society,” added Maher. “According to the Veterans Administration, an estimated 430 WWII Veterans die each day nationally. We know the time is now to take our WWII veterans from the NYC area, before it is too late.” Big Apple Honor Flight would not be possible without cooperation from American Airlines, the Port Authority of NY & NJ, and Jeff Gural of Newmark Holdings, who has stepped up as a sponsor for the inaugural flight. For more information, please call 929.251.5120 or visit www. BigAppleHonorFlight.com.

The Girl Scouts of Nassau County recently celebrated National S’mores Day by holding an outdoor day of fun with community members and future Girl Scouts. The event was intended to give local Girls interested in becoming Girl Scouts a “taste” for the Girl Scouts experience: making s’mores, participating in arts and crafts workshops and celebrating the introduction of a brand new s’mores-flavored Girl Scout Cookie available this cookie-selling season.

In addition to the traditional graham cracker sandwich filled with melted chocolate and roasted marshmallow, the Girl Scouts worked together with other members of the public to create unique s’more-inspired creations using the Girl Scouts’ own Mags&Munchies chocolates and Girl Scout Cookies. The event served as a day of sweet celebration and an opportunity for the community - and future Girl Scouts - to learn more about the Girl Scouts of

Nassau County experience. Membership specialists were onsite to answer any questions and register any interested girls and young women. Girl Scouts have a unique, little-known relationship to National S’mores Day. The first recorded s’mores recipe is in an official Girl Scout publication from Troop Leader Loretta Scott Crew in 1927, making this holiday that much more special to the Scouts.

STEM-ing from Experience The Girl Scouts of Nassau County recently teamed up with St. Joseph’s Hospital to grant Girl Scouts in grades 10-12 the opportunity to experience the many careers within the healthcare industry. During the two-day program, the Girl Scouts became CPR certified, took part in interactive presentations by hospital departments and learned from a presentation entitled, “Careers in Health Care.” The Girl Scouts also worked side-by-side with medical professionals as they experienced a “dayin-the-life” of those who work in such departments as physical therapy,

emergency medicine, respiratory, radiology, hyperbaric chamber, speech, lab, social work, patient access and human resources. After learning more about the healthcare industry, the Girl Scouts of Nassau County were then able to work with the St. Joseph’s Hospital staff to examine patients and conduct experiments in the lab. Using medical tools, the Girl Scouts learned from the professionals how to treat each patient and practiced techniques such as casting an arm and using a scalpel to make incisions on a cantaloupe. The girls also explored an ambulance and realized

the importance of medical research. This Girl Scouts of Nassau County Health Career Exploration Program is offered to high school-aged Girl Scouts in an effort to aid them in their career decision process. By offering the Girl Scouts an inside look into the medical field, the Council aimed to give the girls options to consider when thinking about declaring college majors and future professions. The program was also designed to encourage Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) careers among budding female young professionals.

MELTING WITH EXCITEMENT - The Girl Scouts of Nassau County celebrated National S’mores Day by making s’mores and s’mores-themed snacks with their own Mags&Munchies chocolates and Girl Scout Cookies. The event served as a day of sweet celebration and an opportunity for the community - and future Girl Scouts - to learn more about the Girl Scouts of Nassau County experience. Membership specialists were onsite to answer any questions and register any interested girls and young women. STEM-ing FROM EXPERIENCE - Girl Scouts in grades 10-12 had the opportunity to experience the many careers within the healthcare industry at St. Joseph’s Hospital. During the two-day program, the Girl Scouts became CPR certified, took part in interactive presentations by hospital departments and learned from a presentation entitled, “Careers in Health Care.”

ARTISTS RECEPTION - Family Residences and Essential Enterprises (FREE) welcomed Southold Town Supervisor Scott Russell to their Old Bethpage headquarters recently where he met with special needs artists participating in their Fine Art and Art Therapy Programs who have their mixed media constructions exhibited at The LENZ Winery in Peconic. Supervisor Russell attended the exhibit at the Lenz Winery and was moved to present the artists with citations for their hard work and vision.

Annual Achiever Awards The Women’s Fund of Long Island (“WFLI”) will celebrate the organization’s 25th Anniversary at its annual Achiever Awards Breakfast on November 30th, at the Crest Hollow Country Club. During this

event, WFLI will showcase how it has pursued its mission to ignite networks that transform the lives of women and girls over the last quarter century, through grant-making, leadership development,

education and philanthropy in pursuit of a Long Island where all women and girls reach their full potential. Claire Stapleton, GARDEN CEREMONY - The A. Holly Patterson Extended Care Facility received a Executive Director of WFLI donation of plants in memory of Terese Columbe to beautify the garden area where Continued On 19 residents and families visit the nursing home. The dedication ceremony took place on Wednesday, August 24th.

Seussical Comes to Town

A Day in Our Shoes Continued From 9 specialty homes that have the ability to offer children, with often very severe medical needs, the therapeutic, nursing and potential long-term care required.

AngelasHouse.org. Registration materials for this event are available for individuals and teams at www.AngelasHouse. org and on the day of the event. Sponsorship opportunities are also available. Tickets are $20 if you pre-register and $25 on the day of the event. Please note: No fee for Angela’s House children to participate.

PUZZLE ANSWERS:

Patients at Cohen Children’s Medical Center and their families experienced the wonders of the stage thanks to the John W. Engeman Theater of Northport, LI, which put on a fill-blown production of “Seussical” in the hospital’s lobby. The hospital’s lobby was transformed into an intimate theatre setting, complete with a multitalented troupe of actors in full Seuss regalia,working stage and theatrical lighting. “We couldn’t be more delighted to bring “Seussical” to Cohen Children’s Medical Center, said the theater’s managing director and owner, Kevin O’Neill, while the cast was taking its bows. “Since our earliest history, theater has been the basic form of communication—uniting its audience and providing people with the ability

to share their most basic emotions. “All of us at the John W. Engeman Theater understand how difficult it must be for children and their families who are unable to experience the wonder of theater while they’re confined in hospital. That’s why we felt it was so important to bring the theater to them. It’s our hope that this is just the first of many wonderful shows for the young patients here to enjoy.” Following the one-hour production, sponsored jointly by Bethpage Federal Credit Union and the medical center, cast members signed colorful playbills designed especially for children. And, for those patients unable to leave their rooms, the entire performance was telecast live throughout the hospital.

“We are so grateful to the John W. Engeman Theatre and our good friends at Bethpage Federal Credit Union for bringing this wonderful show to our hospital,” said Amanda Filippazzo, special events coordinator at Cohen... “All you have to do is look at the faces of these children to understand how much this means to them. We look forward to a close association on many more wonderful productions.” Many of the youngsters in the audience had never seen live theater before. When asked for her thoughts, one young lady (who sat openmouthed through the entire production) gave the following rave review: “I really like all the actors. When are they coming back?”

last time while unpacking the fall wardrobe – and maybe shop for a few new accessories. It is a time for new beginnings, and for endings; for the start of the school year and the final days of summer leisure. Sure, every seasonal transition has its own benefits; but there is something about September… something uniquely magical about the twilight of summer and the golden glow of autumn that exceeds them all. This is why it’s so important to slow down and appreciate each day, each stage of metamorphosis, as they each bring their own special respective nuances.

So, enjoy these next three weeks, summer’s swan song; and look ahead to the autumnal equinox with equal anticipation. Each sunbeam, each fallen leaf… they each hold their own special significance. It is up to us to recognize these special gifts, and to hold onto them as the annual winter chill approaches, along with the chaos of the holiday season. This is the calm before the storms, the interlude of tranquility. Hope all my readers have had an enjoyable summer. Here’s to making more happy memories in the month to come…

Annual Achiever Awards said, “As both advocates and stakeholders, WFLI believes that men and boys are critical allies in our efforts. When viewed from a holistic standpoint, this is not just about men or women as separate entities; it’s about building a bridge of solidarity between men and women that will result in a world where everyone has equal rights and opportunities regardless of gender.”

In recognition of this, WFLI is looking for 25 “Stand Up Guys” – family members, bosses, co-workers, neighbors, teachers, coaches, clergy, volunteers, friends – who have made a difference in the lives of girls and women and helped them reach their potential at home, at school, at work or in their community. This selection, chosen by a WFLI committee, will be based on women’s nominations of Stand Up

Guys. All Stand Up Guys and nominators will be invited to a special event in their honor to be scheduled in the Fall. The organization hopes that Stand Up Guys will attend, support and be acknowledged at the Breakfast Awards event on November 30th. Deadline for nominations is September 16th, 2016. To nominate a Stand Up Guy, please contact Stella Miller at stella@womensfundli. org.

(NAPSI)—If you ever find yourself lying awake at night, you’re not alone— even if no one else is in the room. That’s because, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than one-quarter of the U.S. population reports occasionally not getting enough sleep, while nearly 10 percent experience chronic insomnia. Why To Sleep Good sleep, says the CDC, can decrease the risk

of sickness and weight gain. It helps you think more clearly, decreases stress, and leaves you more energetic and productive. As these qualities improve, relationships tend to improve, too. Lack of sleep can be a problem on the job, too. A study by the Law Enforcement Survival Institute showed that in a computer simulated shoot/ don’t shoot situation, fatigued police officers were more likely to shoot when

Why And How To Get A Better Night’s Sleep not necessary. What To Do Many sleep specialists recommend these four steps: 1. Don’t drink caffeine late in the day. 2. Make sure your bedroom is a quiet, dark and relaxing environment; neither too hot nor too cold. 3. Make sure your bed is comfortable and don’t use it for reading, watching TV or listening to music. 4. Take a bath before bedtime.

Maintenance Pays (NAPSI)—Many drivers find that if they want to make their car last, it pays to put it first. Taking good care of your car means you are more likely to avoid problems, both now, while you’re driving it, and later, when you sell it. To improve the life of your vehicle and its price

at resale, it’s a good idea to get it serviced regularly. The car will not only run better, it will be highlighted on a Carfax Report as a “well maintained” vehicle. Keep track of the service history so you can prove you did the right thing to prospective buyers. To help, you can

get reminders about upcoming service from the free myCarfax mobile app. Subscribers also learn of any open recalls on their cars. To find local service shops and get tips on keeping your car well maintained, visit www. mycarfax.com.

Red Cape Ambassador

The American Heart Association is proud to have Thomas Wrightington serving as the 2016 Long Island Heart Walk “Red Cape” Ambassador. This year’s Long Island Heart Walk will be taking place on Sunday, September 18th at Jones Beach. Thomas was in the third grade when he found out he had a congenital heart defect, specifically an aortic valve insufficiency and a PFO (hole in his heart). Thomas loves sports and loves playing them. He also wants to spread awareness and help the American Heart Association so kids like him can live stronger and healthier lives. At the Heart Walk, survivors are celebrated. A “Red Cap” is a red baseball cap featuring the American Heart Association logo.

“Red Caps” refer to survivors of heart attack, cardiac arrest or heart surgery who wear the red caps as a symbol of their survival while walking in the Heart Walk. “White Caps” will be distributed to stroke survivors the day of the walk. Pediatric cardiovascular disease survivors will receive red super hero capes to acknowledge their courage. As Red Cape Ambassador for the Long Island Heart Walk, Thomas will help create awareness about the importance of survivors participating in the event and to create awareness that heart disease and stroke aren’t “just an older man’s diseases.” Hundreds of survivors from across Long Island participate to show

that heart disease and stroke can be beaten. The American Heart Association estimates there are more than 71 million Americans alive with one or more types of cardiovascular disease. On Sunday, September 18th, join our “Red Cape” Ambassador and thousands of other survivors, families and friends from all over Long Island at the Long Island Heart Walk at Jones Beach, Field 5. The annual success of the Long Island Heart Walk is due in part to our national sponsor, Subway. Our event sponsor is Bethpage Federal Credit Union. Local sponsors include Chase, JP Morgan Chase, Voxx International, TD Bank, Winthrop University Hospital, Geico, Astoria Bank, Flushing Bank, Setton Farms, Deloitte, Cohn Resnick, Rivkin Radler, PSE&G, Brookhaven Memorial Hospital, Luxottica and Catholic Health Services. Local media sponsors are WBAB 102.3-FM, WBLI 106.1-FM and Connoisseur Media.

Buying A Once-Wrecked Car (NAPSI)—When it comes to used cars, safety is no accident. But an accident shouldn’t keep you from buying a used car you love. In fact, you may drive away with a bargain. The Problem There are plenty of previously damaged cars out there. In the U.S., car crashes happen about every 60 seconds—and one in six used cars being sold

has been in an accident. The key is to know what you’re buying. An Answer You can start your used car search at the new Carfax.com. Every car for sale comes with a free Carfax Report that includes any reported accidents. It’ll help you tell things like how severe the accident was, what areas of the car were damaged and if the

air bags deployed. Next, get a mechanic to help you determine if the car was repaired properly. Following these steps can help you find a swan where others see only an ugly duckling. Learn More You can get more information and shop for great used cars at the new www.carfax.com.

Checklist For Success (NAPSI)—If you’ve been thinking—or even just dreaming—of your own ebusiness, you aren’t alone. Take the time to properly set up your system, however, and you’ll have a leg up on those who don’t. This checklist may help: 1. Define your product catalog. Know what your differentiators are— the uniqueness of your products, competitive prices, free shipping, how your products are bundled—so you can stand out from similar items.

2. Pick the right channels. If you’re selling from your own website, you’ll need to “pull” customers to your products. If you’re selling on marketplaces such as Amazon and eBay, you’ll need to “push” your products, which means paying fees and competing with pricing and shipping. 3. Create streamlined workflows. If you’re not integrating and automating sales information into your accounting, inventory and shipping systems, you can lose dozens of hours a week on data entry alone.

4. Build ironclad fulfillment. A fulfillment system that’s well managed, accurate and fast is the backbone of any ecommerce business. 5. Be accountable. Take steps to properly track, validate and pay sales tax properly with proper accounting software and data automation so it’s all timely and accurate. More tools and tips for success from ecommerce operation leader Webgility are at www.webgility.com.

Five Tips On Moving (NAPSI)—According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 12 percent of Americans move to new homes every year. The next time you’re among them, you may be able to save time, trouble and money when you choose a professional mover—you won’t have to worry about renting equipment, paying hidden costs, handling heavy or bulky items and being responsible if something goes wrong. Here are five hints to help.

1. Be wary of any “guaranteed” estimates offered over the phone or online. Make sure you show the mover everything that needs to be moved, and get at least three estimates to compare. Avoid any that are too high or too low. 2. Check the company’s ratings with the Better Business Bureau and other consumer websites, and ask family and friends for referrals. 3. Make sure all agreements are in writing, and get a copy of everything

you sign, especially the bill of lading. Never sign any blank forms. 4. Ask questions if you don’t understand something, and make sure your mover has your cell phone number to reach you. 5. Find a certified professional mover. For free estimates at no obligation to you, get free referrals from the American Moving & Storage Association at www.Moving.org.

Why Music Education Matters Come the 2016-2017 school year, the music and arts budget in the Los Angeles Unified School District will reach its highest point in a dozen years. While that’s great news for students, it also illustrates the sad fact that arts and music programs have taken a considerable hit in recent decades, when arts education fell victim to budget cuts.

development of the part of the left side of the brain associated with processing language. A 2005 study from researchers at Stanford University found that mastering a musical instrument may also improve reading skills, which can benefit students both inside and outside the classroom.

Music training helps develop language skills. Studies have shown that music training contributes to the physical

Music improves concentration. Even students who cannot play a musical instrument can still benefit academically from

Music can help students’ emotional development. A 2003 study commissioned by Chorus America found musicians are more likely than the average person to be involved in charity work as volunteers and donors. The NAfME also notes that music students may be more likely to exhibit empathy toward other cultures.

Music can improve selfesteem. In a study examining 117 fourth grade students attending public school in Montreal, a researcher at the University of Texas at Austin found that children who received piano lessons weekly for three years had higher self-esteem than children who were not given piano lessons during the same period. Neither group had participated in formal music instruction before the study, and students in both groups reported similar levels of self-esteem prior to participating in the study. Music education can enrich the lives of young students in a myriad of ways, potentially contributing to happier, more fulfilling lives.

Classroom Tech Trends to Watch Technology continues to evolve. With computers, tablets and smartphones, people of all ages are immersed in technology. According to the Pew Research Center, 56 percent of teens between the ages of 13 and 17 go online several times a day. Teens are not just relying on technology at home or while on the go, but they’re also doing so in school. Schools are now recognizing how influential mobile technologies are on students and how they can shape teaching and thinking. As a result, technology is now a major component in the

classroom, where educators are implementing technology to help students succeed not only in school but also after they graduate. The following are some of the growing tech trends inside of the classroom: Internet Connectivity: Students most often connect to the Internet using their mobile devices. Many schools have replaced their older computer labs with tablets and other mobile devices. Students can simply sit at their individual desks and connect directly to the Internet. Once online, students can access shared drives where assignments

can be found or homework can be posted. Tech Homework: Rather than homework in the

traditional sense, students are being asked to research information online and then submit assignments directly through an application

Personal Mobile Device Access: In addition to tablets, students also have access to Internetconnected smartphones, which may even be their own phones, when personal phones are allowed in the classroom. In a 2013 Speak Up Survey from Project Tomorrow, 89 percent of high school students have access to Internet-connected smartphones, while 50 percent of students in grades

three through five have access to the same type of devices. Those numbers only continue to grow. Classroom Smartboards: Described as large tablets, smartboards have all but replaced chalkboards and even dry erase boards in many schools. Teachers can present lessons through the display, and students interact with the board to answer questions. Technology use in the classroom continues to grow as students and educators grow more accustomed to using technology in all aspects of life.

The benefits of music education extend far beyond getting kids to tap their toes. The National Association for Music Education lists the following benefits among the many reasons to support music education in schools:

Music training can improve hand-eye coordination. Studies have linked long-term music training to improved hand-eye coordination. That is likely connected to the motor skills children develop when playing musical instruments. Without those instruments, those motor skills may not develop as strongly.

simply listening to music. In 2007, a research team from the Stanford University School of Medicine found that music engages the areas of the brain involved with paying attention. Today’s students deal with numerous distractions, from smartphones to tablets to social media, but those who routinely listen to certain types of music might find it easier to block out those distractions and focus on their work.
