Digital Leadership Program 2022-2023
October - We used the excellent drop-down feature in Google Docs and a Pear Deck emoji activity for the first grade to reflect on how the music made them feel.
November - I used the wakelet option to create a research hub for the fifth-grade students to complete information about the composer Gustav Holst and his musical suite, The Planets.
January - My first-grade students used "wonder" and "know" to read rhythms and differentiate one and two sounds per beat. We also used sentence stems: "I wonder" and "I notice," to distinguish when we knew something to be a fact or did not know.
February - For "connecting globally," my Kindergarten students were preparing for a trip to the zoo. We experienced the WildEarth safaris to identify favorite animals and then sang songs featuring the animals. We specifically looked at the elephants and discussed how the skin would feel after singing the song, "Elephants Have Wrinkles."
March - Timely feedback is an important aspect of responding to our students' assignments. For the music room, I believe that necessitates making recordings of some kind. There needs to be a way to preserve the performance for it to be analyzed and feedback given.
