Professional Performance

It truly is invaluable to continue to perform as an adult when teaching music. My summer playing/singing with the Pueblo Municipal Band on Sundays in the summer and our annual Christmas Concert remind me of my passion for music and why it is so important for children to learn and be exposed to quality music.  Because it is the director, Mark Emery's, favorite and I love to sing it, please enjoy a video of myself performing Merry Christmas Darling.

Pitch Reading Practice Picked up this little tool at the convention last week!   Student groups for centers are right now leveled by their pitch reading capabilities. At this center, right next to me, students can practice reading bass and treble clef. More pitch reading fun!!   Students use their recorder or the xylophone and play the pitches on the cards.   Fifth graders use these cards.  Fourth grade students use other cards. Music Madness A board game I made years ago to practice treble clef pitch reading. Musical Pairs Buy It Here Rhythm Rockets Artie Almeida Music Proficiency Pack See It Here Don't Break The Ice Music Symbols on the ice cubes.   Students draw a term, typed on paper, and tap out the matching symbol.
