My Project
I am always looking for more ways to teach my students. Help revitalize my music planning with some new planning materials.
Our students love their specials and love to be challenged, please help me have new resources to find ways to engage and challenge them! The new method books I have added to this project include playing and performing on many different instruments, and of course singing. Our students will love these new lessons inspired by new ideas found in these resources.
The recorder is a wonderful instrument to learn in a classroom setting. It can sometimes be known as an obnoxious instrument, yet the goal in the classroom setting is for beautiful and tuneful playing. Our third grade class sizes are large and include the challenge of teaching 25 to 28 friends the recorder at the same time can be exhausting on the ears. The mutes will provide a much needed softer sound. It will especially be beneficial when I teach my inclusion classes of self contained autism program where some students do not appreciate loud sounds.
