Activity Details
Creative Learning Centers for the Music Classroom
Presenter, Katie Traxler has been using learning centers with all grades for 3 years - on average of 6-8 lessons per year. Some center activities and games were developed for assessment purposes whereas others are great for review and practice of musical concepts. This workshop introduces how to use creative learning centers in the music classroom. Learn how to introduce centers and help students develop appropriate small group behavior in order to implement center routines into your music class. Experience how small group center rotation can benefit your students by allowing you to get in some occasional one on one time with your students. Most of the games that Katie created were developed with her particular students in mind. We will brainstorm additional center activities to meet the needs of workshop participants.
Participants should bring a soprano recorder to this workshop
