Odds and Ends!
As school days approach, I find myself scrambling around for all those odds and ends. Where is that purchase order? What can I purchase? Where do I find it? Where is my substitute teacher's folder? I wonder what new and fresh songs I'm going to be able to find to start off school. Geez, I can't sing the same old songs I've sung for the past three years! Thus, these thoughts have driven me to producing a back to school, pick me up, survival kit!

Irish Music : On the Net!
During the month of March, I generally try to cover subjects in my class on Railroad Songs, Irish Folk songs and then dance a gig or two. However, since I left all my resource materials at school and I wanted to get my article done before the deadline, a great idea popped into my head, (desperation does that to me) and VOILA! This week's article is Irish Music on the Internet!

Know Thyself
It is my belief that if we are to successfully interact with our students, it will serve us well to know ourselves. How do I learn, why do I learn best that way, what are my attitudes, am I open-minded enough to learn from ALL sources?

Let Freedom Sing!: Get Your Rights, Jack
In February, 1964, freedom workers were picketing Leb's restaurant in Atlanta. Thousands of passers-by, diners-out, and spectators crowded the four corners of the intersection. Demonstrators lined the two sides of the street. Suddenly an old man dressed in the red-piped, white satin robes of a Klan Cyclops limped through the narrow aisle of the sidewalk between restaurant and curb, leading a line of white-sheeted followers and a half dozen shirt-sleeved boys and men.

Music Education: What Good is It, any way?
Have you ever heard someone say, "What good are the arts in school anyway? I want my child to learn to read and write, to be decent at math and know a little history." Maybe they don't know that music helps us to appreciate the rhythm of the Cosmos, the biological rhythms, performance rhythms, and perceived rhythm. What was that? Did I hear you say, "So what difference does that make?" I'm glad you asked.

Music Software Heaven: (for your little angels)
As teachers, we are constantly thinking of ways to treat our students and I would assume that generally means keeping stocked up on "Jolly Ranchers" or the like. But, as we all know, with just a little extra preparation AND perhaps a little "moo-la" too, we can treat our students (and ourselves) to some exciting interactive software. My picks, as of this article, are fun AND educational.

Folkin' It!
Dancing is one of those activities that keep us fun-loving and young-acting! And even if you're not a dancer (tsk, tsk), then watching dancers, to most, is fascinating. There's nothing quite like movin' to the grooves or groovin' to the moves. Music is such a marvelous subject to teach because it's all-encompassing. These sites are informative and fun and I've tried to have a wide assortment of styles, so hopefully there'll be something for everyone.

Songwriting
Songwriting is a way to check and see if your students are grasping all of those theory lessons that we present. Better yet, it's a way to allow their minds to "paint" a picture with sound. It is a wonderful vehicle for identifying those students with "natural" ability too.

The Orff Process
Carl Orff was a German composer and educator. Orff defined the ideal music for children, "never music alone, but music connected with movement, dance, and speech - not to be listened to, meaningful only in active participation." Orff said, "Experience first, then intellectualize."
