Make Good Choices - written by 'The Banana Peels' - Ms. Cummins & Ms. Geiger's 6th Grade Class at Liberty Middle School

Episode #5 – “Make Good Choices” features The Banana Peels, a group of 6th graders from Ms. Cummins’ and Ms. Geiger’s class at Liberty Middle School in Liberty, NY. In the Fall of 2025, students worked with STEAM teaching artists Beth and Scott Bierko to learn about nutrition and the difference between real food and processed food, then turned that knowledge into an original song encouraging listeners to slow down, be informed, and make healthier choices before buying and eating. With thoughtful lyrics and upbeat creativity, this episode showcases how the Real Food Songwriting Program blends wellness, teamwork, and music into a hands-on experience that helps important lessons stick long after the music ends.
