ELEMENTARY MUSIC CURRICULUM FOR K-6

I get it!  I started teaching elementary music with two days’ notice and NO CURRICULUM.  I was handed a set of CD’s (tells you something!) and a set of materials and told to go teach!  

It took me over 3 years to really start to even get a handle on what I was doing in all seven grades.

And, I was traveling to four schools and didn’t even have my own classroom.

That’s why I started making resources to fill in the gaps and to present to the students in a fun way.

It was one thing to have this big book of songs and lesson plans-but I didn’t have the presentations, flash cards, posters, and games I needed to teach.

I spent twenty years creating resources for my classes and now I’m offering them to you.

I want you to have a core set of materials with the presentations, the worksheets, the audio, video and flash cards- all the things you’ll need to be an effective teacher.
