Teachers That Give and Fun Items in the Store!


    If you are in the mood to shop then head on over to my TPT store and grab up this goodie before it's gone!!!  "Music Holiday Coloring Pages" is normally $2.50 but tonight it is being offered as FREE!  While you are downloading this one, check out my other items as well!  New to the store is "Nutcracker Lesson & Activities" and this one is perfect for the holiday season!  Another newbie to the store is "Beginning Lines & Spaces".  I also have been craving hot chocolate but it has been unseasonably warm lately, so even thinking of drinking something warm has been giving me hot flashes!!!  So in hopes of cooler weather, check out "Musical Marshmallows" in the store!

                            I am giving away a TPT gift card!!!

New to my TPT Store.....

Happy Sunday everyone!  I hope your day was as restful as mine.  Ready or not, here comes Monday!  If you're like me, you are probably spending your evening putting the last minute touches on your lesson plans for the week.  If you are looking for a fun activity to do this week with your 3rd-5th graders (since Thanksgiving is approaching and there is also a full moon, which means the kids will be acting crazy like little angels) then this activity is for you!  All you need is tape (painters or masking) and this download in my shop now!

First, you need to tape out a music staff on the floor of your music room.  Then display the slides on your smartboard.  The first few slides are of each individual note in the treble clef.  The idea is to have the student to find the note by moving and standing in the correct line or space of the staff.  The final slides will display two notes.  With these slides the students will compete to find their note 
on the staff first.  I also encourage that you have class identify the interval between the two notes.  



Have a great week!  Enjoy making music!!!!!!

Welcome to My Classroom

Welcome to my music classroom!  I am currently a music teacher in the heart of the south where I teach grades k5-5th at a magnet school for the arts.  I am constantly trying to build my resources to become the best music teacher I can be and through this process I have ventured into creating items for my TPT store!  One of my featured items on sale right now is a product called Fishy Rhythms.  



I think what my kids love most about this activity is that they actually get to fish with cane poles!  My kindergarten students were able to fish for Ta and Ti-ti rhythms this week and they were pretty pumped to finally be reading these rhythms.  Stop by my store, snatch it up and take your students fishing!
