0:00.0	I think one of the best ways we can grow in our lives and also in our creativity is by trying
0:05.8	something new. And I've definitely been trying something new this year by using more video to tell a
0:12.4	story with my art and poetry. And a huge way that I've been able to do this is thanks to the stock
0:17.8	videos that I've been finding on StoryBlocks, the sponsor of today's show.

1:34.8	And quite a few of the kids in my class were also interested in playing songs that they could

1:49.7	would give a disclaimer saying,
1:51.9	I'm not that great of a singer, I'm a terrible singer,
