Used it before? It's absolutely worth a second look. Never tried it? There's no better time to start.

June is here - and we are also wrapping up our year at Music Workshop.

This month's theme is Voices of Music Workshop. Expect to hear from our staff, see some fun end-of-year metrics from this past school year, and get a behind-the-scenes look at the people who make Music Workshop what it is.

To kick things off, our June Teacher Newsletter is live now. Everything you need to finish the year strong is inside.

Happy Pride Month.

Music is love. And love, like music, belongs to everyone.

Across every culture, every language, every corner of the world, music has always been a place where people find themselves, express themselves, and connect with one another. It doesn't ask who you are before it moves you. It just does.

That's what we believe at Music Workshop. That music is for every student, every classroom, every community. No exceptions.

Wishing a joyful, music-filled Pride Month to all.

We couldn't think of a better way to close out Teacher Takeover month than this.

Coty Raven Morris - two-time Grammy Music Educator of the Year nominee, incredible teacher, and one of the most inspiring voices in music education today. Coty is a true part of the Music Workshop family, bringing her warmth, wisdom, and passion to our Professional Development courses and to Coty's Classroom.

Watch the video above and you'll understand exactly why we are so proud to have her in our corner.

Here's to Coty, and to every music teacher who showed up for their students this month and every month.

Create a free account or log in to see more of Coty at musicworkshop.org. And PD is FREE through the end of June - self-paced, so you can sign up now and take it over the summer.

Music shapes our brains. It moves our bodies. It helps us understand our emotions and the world around us. And this fall, Music Workshop has a brand new course built around exactly that.

Introducing Music in Life, the first in a series of lessons exploring the profound ways music shapes who we are.

This is a fresh and exciting direction for Music Workshop, and we are thrilled to bring it to your classroom. More details are coming as we get closer to the fall launch. Keep your eyes peeled!

Why teach music? Because music is one of the most generous gifts you can give another person.

When you share a song you love, science shows your brain's reward system activates just as much as the listener's. Sharing music is altruism in its purest form. And when you sing or play for someone, or invite them to join in, you connect with them in a way that goes beyond words.

Music teachers know this. It's why they show up every day.

Happy Memorial Day, music teachers. You've almost made it.

These last weeks of school are a special kind of busy, and Music Workshop is here to make them a little easier. We're talking easy-prep lessons that are ready when you are, and fun, unexpected lessons that give students something to remember when the year wraps up.

And while you're at it, our professional development courses are free through the end of June. Online and self-paced, so you can fit them in on your own schedule this summer.

You've put in the work all year. Finish strong.
