Music Room Website!

I am trying out my very own Music room website and I am so excited! I think I will use it especially for information of upcoming events, posting PDFs of notes, and to show parents what we are doing in the Music room! I am completely new to this, so please give me some tips or let me know if you have a classroom website or blog and what you use it for!

I used Weebly for mine. I wanted to keep it nice, simple and easy to use! Weebly is super easy to set up! Weebly can be used for classroom teachers too. Ms. St. Laurent at my school just created a great one for her grade 1 class and plans to add a blog to it for her kids to interact on-line!

Check out my Weebly page ryersonrocks.weebly.com!


Stay tuned!

As the levels increase, so does the speed of the travelling note! It is so exciting! I observed another music teacher in my division do this with her class. She is amazing and incorporates Smartboard activities into her lessons on a regular basis! I follow her model for how we organize the game. I have all the students stand i...

Bulletin Board Freebie!

So, I have come to the conclusion that one can be quite productive while procrastinating! I really need/want to spend some time revamping my program with new unit and lesson ideas. I opened my laptop today with the intentions of working on that and instead ended up creating visuals for a September Bulletin Board. Yeesh! One of the amaaaaazing teachers at my school ( The Reading Corner ) suggested using Powerpoint to create visuals, handouts and posters instead of Word because you can move things and format so much easier! I LOVE IT!  Below is my take on Music "Mooves" Me! You can actually buy posters for a Music Moves Me bulletin board from  Music Bulletin Boards  if you prefer. Here are some photos of what I created (although I haven't put up my bulletin board yet... more photos to come of that). Thanks to my friend Sean, also a Music teacher, who added three posters to my original creation! Here is the pdf for the bulletin board  Title Letters  in cow font. He...
