My passion is making music and getting my students to make music. The concept is easy, but making sure I create an environment for my students to complete this task is not always something I do well. I find it a lot easier to do this in a the older grades, but I want to start adding more opportunities at the primary level too. The moments when we jam and things groove are amazing! I don't think there is anything better that can happen in the course of my day.
As we reach the end of the school year I am focused on giving my students as many opportunities to create music (more than just playing bourduns and glissandos.)
Music my students are creating right now...
4th Grade - Crazy Train: Xylophones, Boomwhackers, Hand Drums and Drum Set.
4th Grade - Happy: Recorder, Shaker and Xylophones.
2nd Grade - Great Big House: Xylophones and Hand Drums
