Shout out to the little church on the hill! For the past year I've been singing at Immanuel Episcopal Church in Glencoe and it's so picturesque. This time of year I get to rehearsal just as the sun is going down and it's just a dream ❀️

9 months out of the classroom, I'm finally feeling healed enough to start going through the bags of teaching materials I brought home and stashed in my basement.

Not going to lie: holding this brought on a whole wave of residual anxiety from pandemic teaching. I'm selling and donating a lot of old teaching materials, but I'm looking forward to tossing this one in the trash! πŸ—‘οΈ

Well friends and followers, it's time for a pretty big life update...

This might seem like it's coming from out of the blue, but I've decided to leave my teaching job 😱🀯

πŸ‘€ I'll share more details on my stories tonight, so you can hop over there if you want to know more about how I made the decision and what I'll be doing instead.

Rest assured that I will continue to create meaningful content for music educators... It just won't be coming from within a classroom! 😁 I'm thrilled about taking this leap and I hope you'll stick with me for the ride!

The many adventures of Forte the Tiger! πŸ˜‚πŸ―

The background: I usually start my kindergarten lessons with this puppet, Forte. But every now and then I'll pull out a different puppet that goes with the theme of the lesson. Then the kids inevitably ask me "where's Forte?" to which I usually respond, "he's on vacation!"

So a few weeks ago I decided to have some fun with the idea of him actually going on vacation... We sang "kitty cat, kitty cat, where have you been?" and they saw all the great landmarks he visited.

πŸ€” Where should he go next?

Have you ever played a Hapi drum? They're so great! They're tuned pentatonic and whatever you play sounds good. Perfect for relaxing moments in music class or exciting instrument exploration for the littles.

😬 Feeling the Sunday scaries? One thing I've done to help keep them at bay is make sure I have engaging lessons ready to go for days when I'm not feeling my best and need to "be my own substitute." This new release from fits the bill: read the story, listen and move to Shakira's music, and then have students complete a creative activity for easy assessment.

Hop over to my store on Teachers Pay Teachers to find the worksheets I use!

I love turning random items into music manipulatives! These counting chips were from Target a few years back. ❓ Do you have anything like this in your classroom?
