We all wonder what exactly music therapy is and what it can really do. Here is a site that can answer all your questions about music therapy. I feel it can be very useful in the classroom.

This website has several search options but I found it most interesting for seeing reviews for different software available (not only music related software for the classroom but other subjects as well.) As education becomes more and more reliant upon computers, I thought this website might be useful to us in all areas of teaching.

I went under Action Songs and Singing Games in this website. It offers alphabet action songs and activities. It also offered Shake It Up songs for Pre-K through grade 5 and special holiday songs. It allowed you to listen to clips of some of the songs.

This site is from the UK. It has some great activities for children. This could be used as part of a music scenter. Students can also access it from home. It has a section for parents and teachers. There are lesson plans and much more. Even though it is from another country, we can still get some terrific ideas for teaching.

All sorts of teacher stuff here from free to ??? I downloaded this file http://musicintheelementaryclassroom.pbwiki.com/f/IMAGINING%20TO%20MUSIC.doc for free after doing a free registration. You can pay $29.95 a year and then you can sell your lessons and supplemental materials and whatever, but you can register for free.

 

I'm adding another link because of some of the responses to my questions about what you have learned and what you would like to learn. This is another wiki that I made for the Integrating the Internet into YOUR Classroom. There are lots of links there too. Not much in the music department - those are here! LOL

This site is more like a giant reference book. It lists tons of bands and artists and gives links to obtain information on them.

I can't believe I didn't think of this before. Music or use of instruments for therapy! Teaching the fingering of an instrument could improve hand-and-eye coordantion in students.
