I'm a beginning orchestra teacher that teaches in five different elementary schools. I've always been a fan of making things for my students that will help them succeed, so I've decided to put my skills to the test. :)
Set your students up for success in their first year playing with this digital practice journal. Students will have a weekly playing activity as well as a reflection page. Questions can be edited as you see fit. Print out the slideshow back to back for a physical version as well!
Looking for a little friendly competition in your classroom to get students working harder at note reading? Try this fun game of Around the World!

Follow the directions below and have a blast seeing who can make it all the way around the world! Directions: Print out

Print the two page set for your students on separate pages (I'd recommend card stock if you can so they cannot see through to the back as easily), have them cut out the boxes (and keep the two extras just in case!), and then label them on the backs with letter name or finger number (or

Experience
I'm a beginning orchestra teacher that teaches in five different elementary schools. I've always been a fan of making things for my students that will help them succeed, so I've decided to put my skills to the test. :)
Teaching style
I'm goofy and strict all at the same time which actually makes for a strong group of musicians after their first year of playing. Plus, they're ready for the world of middle school sarcasm and college readiness.
Awards & shining teacher moments
I'm still amazed I get to do what I love every day! Students have more knowledge than you ever expect of them and tend to lead teachers to new paths.
My own education history
Bachelor of Music Education K-12

Additional biographical information
I have a kitten named Peach who is one year old! I love to play kickball and try new food! I enjoy traveling to places I've never been (and the same places more than once).
