Things I've learned today:
1) It's ok if students aren't master rhythm readers right off the bat
2) Switching back and reteaching is part of the process
3) Anything that is done joyously is a cherry on top <3
Musically Yours,

My kinder babies are quickly turning into not-so-little first graders. I am using a mixture of Feierabend's First Steps in Music and Gameplan's Kinder curriculum. We are transitioning from steady beat to pre-notation square rhythms. It is a HUGE jump and the students are working hard to get it just right. We are also slowly implementing barred instruments after non-pitched percussion. The kids could NOT be happier!

Miss ReynaI grew up in Brownsville, TX and graduated from Homer Hanna High School. I have loved singing ever since I joined choir in 5th grade. After years of singing in choir, my hard work payed off with a scholarship to the University of Texas at Brownsville. I graduated in Spring 2012 with a Bachelor’s in Music Education EC-12, with an emphasis in Voice.I am a fully certified Kodaly teacher and looking to get my second certification in the Orff-Schulwerk process. I am qualified to teach all music to all grades (K-12) but I love the elementary level. Archives
