Hi, Music Educator and Choir Director friends!
This BLOG has been created for those of us who love to share ideas that work for us, and see some creative recommendations from others. This is the way we ALL get better...even us "old dogs"!
So if you're willing to share a teaching activity, a rehearsal technique, a warm-up exercise, a new anthem you love, or post info about an upcoming leadership workshop in your area - BRING IT ON!
Also - feel free to forward this to your music-teacher friends so that they can take part in the sharing process.
And just to get us started - I want you to know about a series of teaching activities and experiences that is slated to appear in the upcomning issues of "The Chorister" - the members' magazing published bi-monthly by Choristers Guild (www.choristersguild.org).
This is designed as a pull-out section within the magazine, containg 12 pages of ideas for leaders of Pre-Elem, Younger Elem, and Older Elem. singers/students.
