Here's a blog from Amy Burns, a general music teacher in New Jersey and the president-elect of TI:ME. She has included some great posts of downloadable freebies, her list of "Some Elementary Concert Items That No One Ever Tells You About…" and she explains how she used Apple Keynote to get 250 kids singing together. There's a link to interviews and perfomances from MENC Music Education Week in Washington last June. It will be interesting to learn how she continues to use technology throughout the year for composing or review of a concept. Comments from other teachers reinforce the use of technology. For fun, be sure to watch the YouTube video with the saxophonist explaining triplets. I couldn't resist and added her podcast that includes the opening plenary session from MENC Music Education Week in Wachington, Software for Music Creation.
