INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Use examples that subvert conventional gender roles both professionally and in the home during lessons. This will help your students expand their perception of who can hold particular responsibilities. For example, write teaching examples that feature a male flight attendant, a female mechanic, or a stay-at-home dad. Explain the social implications of gendered language, such as to "run like a girl" or "man up" when you hear these expressions at school. Describing the limits these expressions place on both genders can help your students grow in their thinking. You might say, "I heard you tell Max he serves 'like a girl.' What exactly did you mean by that? Lots of women are incredible at tennis; take Serena Williams." You could say, "I heard you tell Alex to 'be a man.' What does that mean to you? Playing the violin is difficult, and Alex has worked really hard to master it. I don't think there's anything unmanly about that." Call out when class texts or videos tokenize one gender and talk about what it means for understanding the material. This will help your students analyze sources critically. For example, say a short story in an English class features one woman who constantly asks men in the story for direction and approval. You might say to your class, "Women are self-sufficient and don't need this much direction. What do you think the author of the story is telling us about this narrator? How do you think he views women?"

SUMMARY: Choose teaching examples that upend traditional gender stereotypes. Ask students what they mean when they use sexist language. Address when class materials stereotype one gender.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Beginners will be more excited about learning if they can quickly play songs they know and love. Many popular songs have a relatively simple structure. For more complex songs that your student wants to play, look for simplified adaptations that sound similar to the original. Have your student make a list of their favorite songs, and look them up online. Pull songs that use chords your student already knows and have them practice with those songs. Although most attention is paid to the fretting hand, learning how to strum is a big part of learning how to play guitar. A beginner can play many popular songs using a basic down-up, down-up pattern. There are other basic strumming patterns that can open up additional songs for a beginner. Many popular songs only use 3 or 4 relatively common chords. Search online for songs that use the chords your beginning student has already learned. If you know the types of music your student likes, you can find songs they'll be more interested in learning how to play. Many of these songs, such as "Free Falling," by Tom Petty, or "Lay Down Sally," by Eric Clapton, use only 3 chords within the CAGED system. Your student will better see progress and be motivated to go further if they can start playing popular songs they know relatively quickly.
Summary: Ask your student what songs they want to play. Use basic strumming patterns. Find popular 3- and 4-chord songs.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Snip the corner off a bag of soil to create a narrow spout. Starting with the edges, go around the frame and pour in the soil until it just touches the underside of the hardware cloth. Give the frame an occasional shake while you work to level off the soil and help it distribute more evenly. You can also add a small amount of fertilizer to the potting soil to promote the health of new plants. Look for nitrogen-rich fertilizers and mix a light sprinkling into the fresh soil before you fill the frame. Formulate your own soil specifically for succulent plants by mixing two parts moist soil from your yard or garden with one part sand and small pebbles. Use a chopstick, screwdriver or slender wooden dowel to burrow into the soil about 1-1.5" deep. This will create a series of small holes that will make planting the seeds and cuttings much more expedient. Dig one hole for each plant you intend to grow. Make sure the holes are relatively narrow and that the soil around the opening isn't cracked or loose. Be careful not to make the holes so deep that you reach the plywood backing. Confirm that the holes you dig are wide enough to accommodate the root bulbs of larger succulent species. Insert the cuttings through the wire screen of the hardware cloth root-side down. They should fit perfectly into the holes you just opened up. After all the cuttings are in place, pat the soil around the visible portion of the plants to anchor them. At this point, you should begin thinking about how you want your finished living picture to look. This will give you an idea of what type of planting pattern will work best. Plant leaf cuttings at an angle to the soil, with the trimmed end below the surface. You won't hang your living picture right away. Seeds and young cuttings will need two to four weeks of constant sunlight and daily watering to begin growing. When the roots have spread and found traction in the soil, the plants will be resilient enough to mount without coming loose. For the first week or so, aim to water your plants once a day. Simply wet the top of the soil around each of the plants. As they develop, they'll require less and less water and general maintenance. Once the roots have secured themselves in the soil, you'll be able to mount the frame with no fear of the plants coming dislodged. Attach the hook or wire hanger to the upper portion of the plywood backing and display it in a well-lit section of your living room, kitchen, patio or garden. Take the frame down whenever you need to water the plants or add new fertilizer to the soil. You can also water the plants using a spray bottle. Give them a generous misting once or twice a day, and be sure to saturate the soil as well as the foliage. Make sure the soil is adequately drained before rehanging the living picture.

SUMMARY:
Fill the living picture frame with potting soil. Poke small holes in the soil. Press the plant cuttings into the holes. Give the plants time to take root. Hang and care for your living picture.
