Five Favorite Pins of December
Hard to pick only 5. I can get lost for hours in Pinterest (If I let myself!)
Here I go:
1. I have to start with funny ones. Humour helps me cope with my job - in fact with life in general.
You can download this set for free on my web site: HERE
or on TpT: HERE
2. A pin that leads you to a board full of music education ideas.
3. Wishful thinking Pin. I wish I had time to make things like this - for now I content myself with pinning the picture and hoping one day I will have the time to make them, and things like them.
4. A lovely gift idea for parents of young ones!
5. And the final pick is one that reminds me of what I have always said about my own learning journey. The more I know, the more I realise that I don't know!
When I started this post, I thought it would all be about teaching ideas, but it became more philosophical. Nothing wrong with a bit of self reflection I say.
Happy Holidays everyone - and hopefully you can find a little time to relax and maybe even reflect upon what is important to you, personally and professionally.

High/Low Contour Flashcards
This is from a set downloadable for Crescendo members HERE . I have a copy printed in colour and laminated, but I also use them on the data projector. We can sing through them as a group, half class, individual, play them on two chime bars, on two boomwhackers…all part of the steps to teach reading writing and understanding high and low notes a minor third apart.Sunday, December 6, 2015
