You're missing the best part, in my opinion, which is the intro, "There's an old saying in Tennessee—I know it's in Texas, probably Tennessee…"

Also Disclosure and Kurt Vile.

The Common Core is based on problem solving and finding your own way of doing things, but unfortunately most elementary teachers are only barely qualified to teach the rote memorization method and therefore try to shoehorn the new stuff into the model they've already been using. There are also some really great…

I agree with you about relating subjects to one another, and there is a push for more interdisciplinary and project-based curricula, but I would say what really needs to be done is a greater emphasis on philosophy.

While I loved B.O.B., the first time hearing "Hey Ya" was a much bigger moment for me. It was just so clear that that song was going to be universally loved.
