It was wonderful to get gift cards to Teacher Pay Teacher. I love following other elementary music teachers online and using some of their great ideas. When I see something I like and they sell a slide show or printable that they've already created and used, it makes it so easy for me to take their idea and implement it in my classroom.\r\nI use about 60 different activities each week in my music class. I find them all from various sources and so my planning takes quite a bit of time. I typically purchase 30 or more Teacher Pay Teacher Resources per year with my own money, so it has been awesome to have this sizeable gift card that I can reach to, to cover the cost of my recent purchases.\r\nOne of my most useful Teacher Pay Teacher products I purchased this year was a recorder curriculum. It had ready to use slides and accompaniment tracks that gave my recorder instruction good direction. I also love the game ideas I've gotten. I purchased a very fun music version of Taco, Cat, Goat, Cheese Pizza as well as music battleship which were both big hits with my students.\r\nThank you for your generous donation to our school! The resources I am purchasing with this gift card will be used now as over the next many years at our school.
