Arlington, Va. - Sometimes it takes a little bit of music to get people to move. North Carolina National Board Certified Teacher June Robison is doing just that to motivate her students to exercise—she recently wrote a musical to teach her students about the benefits of choosing a healthy lifestyle.
Robison, who achieved National Board Certification in music in 2009, says that she created the musical after surviving breast cancer. Robison hopes that her musical will help reduce obesity rates.
