Diggory Shields, Carol. Baby’s Got the Blues. Illus. Lauren Tobia. Somerville, Massachusetts: Candlewick Press, 2014. Print.With the word Baby in the title, one might believe that this book is suitable only for pre-school children. The author, Carol Shields, erases this assumption with the first sentence: “You think babies have it easy?” The book, Baby’s Got the Blues, is told from the perspective of the youngest in the family, and pays tribute to all the trials and tribulations that Baby encounters- full diapers, the inability to talk, eat pizza, walk, and having to sleep in a crib. In the end, all of Baby’s blues are wiped away when the best part of being a baby is revealed- cuddles.Written in the Blues musical style, with rhythm and  beat, those who are inclined could easily find themselves singing this story out loud, even improvising their own lines. The repeated refrain, “Cause I’m a baby, And I’ve got those baby blues. B-A-B-Y, baby, Got the poor little baby blues,” changes slightly after each verse to reflect Baby’s blues. For example, the word “blues” in the first line of the refrain is substituted for “stinkeroos” after Baby deals with a stinky diaper.The illustrations of this picture book highlight Baby’s world and help to tell Baby’s story in a fun way that includes Baby’s rabbit stuffy, which seems to experience the same trials and tribulations that Baby does. I highly recommend this book for babies, siblings, parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, and budding Blues musicians alike. Shield’s tells of Baby’s blues in a way that is enjoyable and will get even the most non-musical tapping their foot.Highly Recommended: 4 out of 4 starsReviewer: Sheena NewburySheena is an elementary music teacher with Edmonton Catholic School and is currently working on completing her Master’s degree in Elementary Education.

Pros And Cons

Music education is an important part of a child’s elementary education. There are many types of new digital technologies that are appearing in our schools. Through inquiry research and the use of an online survey, in-person and email interviews,  I have attempted to discover what digital programs or tools are out there to assist with learning the various musical concepts in elementary music curriculum, as well as how digital technology in music curriculum is used to keep the children engaged in their learning. The findings led me to a conclusion that people believe that music education at an elementary level is important, has both pros and cons, and must be used in correspondence with traditional teaching methods.  Digital technology can be beneficial in music education if the teacher understands how to use it properly to promote active and engaged student learning.

56 elementary teachers of physical education and 54 teachers of elementary music education responded to the Teacher Integration Attitudes Questionnaire which assesses teachers' attitudes regarding inclusion of children with disabilities into regular education settings. Analysis indicated that children with emotional and behavioral disorders were perceived less favorably by teachers of music education and children with orthopedic handicaps were perceived less favorably by teachers of physical education. The type and severity of disability appeared to influence teachers' attitudes towards including children with disabilities in regular education classrooms.

Abstract This study describes survey results measuring the knowledge undergraduate elementary education major students have about augmentative and alternative communication. Those students with experience and course knowledge surrounding AAC were more knowledgeable. Implications for speech-language pathologists (SLPs) will be addressed, including how SLPs can provide classroom teachers with classroom support for general education teachers.
