I wrote an article about professional development and then sent it through Google Notebook.

I talk about the following:

2. Jingle Bells……………………………………………………………………….……arr. Pearson

3. Japanese Folk Trilogy……………………………………………………..….Anne McGinty

Just a quick update on what is going on in the music room. We talk about Jarod Hall's Tripwire and Anne McGinty's Japanese Folk Trilogy before discussing regional auditions.

I worked in google notebook to create this podcast. I did the research, fed google notebook questions, and Google Notebook created the conversation.

Our guest, Emily Marquardt, is chorus director at Oxford Middle School and Oxford High School. She answers our five questions about her music experience.

Project 2025 and the omnipresent anti-trans ads highlight the need to make all students feel welcome in our classroom. I review some practical suggestions to encourage a safe space for all student.
