It's that time of year again! The music teachers gather to celebrate their teaching styles with weekend workshops!  (This is my second on this month!)

​I really enjoyed meeting Brain Burnett. He had a lot of similar ideas to how I teach and my philosophy around assessment in the music room.  Great presentation!

Talk Like a Pirate Day

9/19/2019

Probably my very favorite holiday to have during school! I dress up like a pirate and give instructions with a lot of "Aye" and "Arrrgh, Matey!" throughout the day.  It's a ton of fun and doesn't take much.  Bonus: It doesn't halt the school day. No gifts, no candy, no parties, no food, nope- nobody else in costume... no one else gives a rip about this day, but me! It's awesome!

It's okay if you didn't know it was even a thing. I've been doing this since I was introduced to it in 2005.
