"Our role as artists is always to search for the light," says French artist JR ( previously) about the second act of his Retour à la Caverne project. "We know this much: You don't chase away the darkness with more darkness. You chase it away with light, however tiny."

The work he's referring to, though, is far from tiny. Cloaking Paris's Palais Garnier while the building is under construction, Retour à la Caverne is an enormous trompe l'oeil facade, the first part of which depicts a cave carved into the grand structure that houses the opera. Illuminated at the center, the temporary piece highlights the physical and metaphorical interactions between light and dark. Broken into two acts like an opera libretto, the work references Plato's allegory that emerging from the depths of the cave, and from darkness, brings knowledge.

"Act I" debuted earlier this fall with four nights of projected works, while the second part was held on November 12. "Back in September, we invited you to step out of the cave to go and explore. This time, we're inviting you back inside the cave," JR said while introducing the work. Whereas "Act I" portrays the cavern gouged into the center of the building, "Act II" switches perspectives, placing the viewers entirely inside the space.

Titled " Chiroptera," the performance featured choreography by Damien Jalet and music by Thomas Bangalter. More than 150 dancers appeared through an elevated seven-story scaffolding after an eerie introduction by ballerina Amandine Albisson, who appeared to open the cave, causing a plummet into darkness. As with many of JR's works, the artist asked the crowd to participate by using headlamps and their phones to illuminate the remainder of the performance, revealing the ways light can emerge from collective action.

Watch the full performance below, and find more from JR on Instagram.

Artist and architect Ulf Mejergren ( previously) continues his interest in cozy, outdoor constructions with a new series titled Farm Art. Collaborating with farmer Robert Pettersson, Mejergren built several site-specific structures from materials found around Pettersson's property in Grödinge, Sweden.

For "Pine Bark Hut," the pair layered thick, gnarly wood into a slender cabin camouflaged between two trees, a space first used for hunting and then storing tools. Similarly, "Root Hut" entwines gathered branches with the existing roots to create a small, sand pit enclosure nestled beneath the forest, while the circular "Moss Hut" stands 4.5 meters tall among the trees. The latter work "stems from the farmers' hunting interest," Mejergren writes. "For many years, he has put food at certain points in the forests so wild boars come to feed there. The problem is they are like bulldozers in the forests, looking for insects and roots in the soil, so they have dug up moss from the forest floor and left them scattered in big droves." Cloaked in the remaining lichen, the structure is a disguised refuge among the wild landscape.

Other works in Farm Art are more aesthetically driven, like the vivid "Sunset." Made of dandelion heads at full bloom, the spherical form appears to glow in a field of weeds and wildflowers. Find the full series on Mejergren's site and Instagram.

Amazon Wish List - CHECK WITH PRINCIPAL BEFORE SETTING UP

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
As teachers, we spend lots of our own money on school supplies. Classroom decorations, books, notebooks and pencils for our students all come out of our paychecks. One way to cut down on your own spending and get supplies for your classroom is by creating an Amazon Wish List. Use these 5 easy steps to get started.

How to Use an Amazon Wish List to Get Supplies for Your Classroom
**This post contains affiliate links and I will be compensated if you make a purchase after clicking on my links. I only recommend products that I use and love.
Have you ever said to yourself, "If I only had a little bit more budget money, I would love to get a _________ for my classroom!" We all have a wish list created in our minds of what we want for our classrooms. Put that wish list in writing, and watch as items appear at your doorstep through the magic of Amazon.

Step #1 - Go to Amazon and look for items you want for your classroom.

As you know, you can find just about anything on Amazon. There is no shortage of supplies for your classroom. These are some of my favorite things to add to my Amazon Wish List.

Check out some other great teacher resources to add to your wish list.

I try to add items that are a variety of prices. That way, people can spend as much or as little as they want.

Step #2 - Add the item to your wish list.

Click the button that says "Add to List". It's right below where you would normally add the item to your cart.

Then, a window will open so you can change the settings for your wish list.

Choose "Wish List".

Give your Wish List a name. I called mine "School Wish List".

Set the Privacy to "Public". That way others will be able to see it.

I leave the "Keep purchased items on your list." unchecked. That way, you won't get duplicates.

Finally, click "Create List".

Step #3 - Finish adding wish list items.

When you add an item to your wish list, Amazon will suggest other related items. You can either add those items to your list or click the button on the side to "Continue Shopping".

Finish adding items to your wish list.

Step #4 - Share your wish list.

Once your wish list is ready, send it to your family, friends, and students' parents. You can keep it public, and people will be able to search for it. I changed mine to "Shared" by clicking on the three dots on the right side of the picture below. While you're there, fill in your address and other information if it's not already there. Then, click the "Send list to others" link.

This pop-up will appear. You can copy the link and share it with people or you can send them an email directly from here. You can even share your wish list on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest.

#5 - Sit back and wait for your wish list items to appear.

As people order items off your wish list, they will be shipped directly to your house. My family members often buy me something for back to school, and my students' families love it for Christmas and end of the year gifts.

STEM Action Grants

The STEM Action Grant program provides small grants of up to $5,000 to innovative nonprofit organizations led by social entrepreneurs

The STEM Action Grant program aims to bolster and support community-driven nonprofit organizations that are working to enhance the public's understanding of science and to increase participation of underrepresented populations in STEM fields. Since 2016, the Society has awarded $586,000 to 85 organizations wanting to improve access to STEM education.

"The funding allowed our organization to provide the community with access to free STEM activities. We provided over 100 hours of STEM activities and five field trips designed to educate and inspire a population of youth who are historically underserved and underrepresented in STEM."

Black Girls Dive

"Weeks before the scheduled program, Puerto Rico was devastated by two hurricanes, leaving much of the island was without power. However, a brave group from Guaynabo gathered technology and students together to participate in a virtual field trip. It was amazing to see the students so eager to learn in the midst of what was happening around them"

Instead of teaching kids to paint bowls of fruit with tempera, we’d show them how to communicate a concept through a sketch, how to explore the world in a sketchbook, how to generate ideas, how to solve real problems. Theatre would be all about collaboration, presentation and problem solving. Music classes would emphasize creative habit, teamwork, honing skills, composition, improvisation.

We’d teach creative process, how to come up with ideas, how to find inspiration, how to steal from the greats. We’d teach kids to work effectively with others to improve and test their ideas. We’d teach them how to realize their ideas, get them executed through a supply chain, how to present and market and share them.

We’d also emphasize digital creativity, focussing on cutting edge (and cheap) technology, removing the artificial divide between arts and science, showing how engineering and sculpture are related, how drawing and User Experience (UX) Design are facets of the same sort of skills, how music and math mirror each other.  Gregory, D.

"In the academic literature, it's an important piece of a growing body of evidence that's discovering the important benefits of arts education," says Brian Kisida, one of the researchers on a recently released study on the effects of arts integration on learning. "We're finding that [arts education is] increasing student engagement, it's increasing students' tolerance levels, it's increasing their compassion, it's reducing disciplinary infractions. And those are all findings that are coming from well executed, rigorous research. Together, these make for important currency in education policy debates when decision makers are determining where to allocate resources and where to focus their efforts."

The Minneapolis Institute of Art recently received a $750,000 Andrew W. Mellon Foundation grant to establish the world's first Center for Empathy and the Visual Arts. A team of experts will come together to focus on how art museums can teach empathy and compassion. This news has left some asking whether these qualities can be taught.

Educators have been using the arts and humanities to teach empathy for some time. In 2003, Lauren Christine Phillips tracked the ways in which she set out as an art teacher to nurture empathy. Phillips writes about how her school, Norcross Elementary, has set out to teach and instill empathy in their 900 students. "From an early age," she explains, "they learn how to treat others with respect, work together to solve problems, and be a part of our community. They learn this from adults at our school, as well as from each other."

Through the artistic process, imagination, modeled behavior, and human connection, art can have transformative powers.

In her classroom, Phillips stresses caring and imagination, while acknowledging that the idea of teaching empathy is not something as concrete as other lesson plans, like teaching perspective or watercolor. "I have not discovered the 10-step process for teaching kids to care," she notes. But she believes that through the artistic process, imagination, modeled behavior, and human connection, art can have transformative powers.

Phillips describes two groups lessons she uses to create "a community of caring." One lesson focuses on the class's creating Ashanti adinkra cloth, traditionally from Ghana. This cloth is hand-stamped and originally made to wear at funerals. Students could imagine and empathize with the artists during their own creation process. Although only in second grade, the children benefitted from discussing the artistic emotions and motivations behind the project.

Another lesson was inspired by Oaxacan painted animal sculptures. For this, Phillips again provided the students with context, explaining that many of the Oaxacan artists who make these do so after farming all day. She asks them questions like, "Why would they spend the little free time they have carving small creatures?" Students begin to understand that the act of creating brings people joy. They also start to make connections between the artists they are studying and their own families, seeing how art helps to improve their lives in various ways.

The Minneapolis Institute of Art's new Center for Empathy and the Visual Arts has many possibilities for how to creatively teach and instill empathy in museum visitors. Although Phillips' study focused on children, her ideas can be applied to museum visitors of all ages.As Hannah Arendt put it: "Education is the point at which we decide whether we love the world enough to assume responsibility for it and by the same token save it from that ruin which, except for renewal, except for the coming of the new and young, would be inevitable."

Academic achievement in arts is presented in two ways on The Nation'​s Report Card: scale scores and NAEP percentiles:

Scale scores represent how students performed on the arts assessment. Scores are aggregated and reported for diverse student groups for the nation, states, and districts.

Percentiles show score results for students performing at lower (10th and 25th percentiles), middle (50th percentile), and higher (75th and 90th percentiles) levels on the reporting scale.

Item maps illustrate how specific arts knowledge and skills correspond to the 25th and 75th NAEP percentiles. Item maps answer the question, "What assessment questions were likely to be answered correctly by lower- and higher-performing students?"
