This is a good web site to teach about friendships and how we all make mistakes, and it is what we do with our mistakes that makes us better.

This website shows lesson plans using music mostly at the high school level. I know that most or all of us are going to be at the elementary level, but the amount of information using music at the higher level is more limited so I thought I'd share what I did find.

This is a website where you can download materials and order Dr. Jean CDs. She has one CD that has a song "Kiss Your Brain" which is great to play when praising the kids. It also has "Twinkle Friends" which allows the kids to move around and find friends.

This is a cute little song to help teach students all of the presidents!

This was something that I just happened onto....somehow! I had fun playing here. There are word searches using music, art, and dance words; creating with the piano or drums, paint, and color - just LOTS of things to do that could be used as either a reward for students or a center without need for "messy" stuff!

This is an interesting site that serves a purpose much like this site of ours. This site is a mailring that can link you with teachers from all over the world through email and chat forums to gain help, tips, and discuss methods and share ideas.

This site is provided by the group that performs "Stomp", an abstract performance of movement and sound with the use of everyday objects. The site has lesson ideas and activities for younger and older students which involve sounds, music, and movement. Many of the activities combine earth science and music.

This does not concern music--thought it was a good site for showing kids how to use and respect the internet. So many kids are getting over their heads with things they should not be doing on the internet, these lessons are done in a "stepping stone" process as kids progress thru the grades. If we train them right, maybe they won't stray into the forbidden zone!
