Recruitment/Retention Rockstar Bundle
I am very proud of my annual retention rate, which usually falls between 80% and 95% overall, and up to 100% in an individual class. This doesn't happen on its own though. At the start of registration, my initial retention is usually around 65-70%. How do I bring that up 40 percentage points?! I'm spilling ALL my retention and recruitment secrets in this bundle!The reality for many Orchestra teachers is that our job security is based on how many students sign up for our classes, so having a soli

Music Journals
This is a really fun way to open your students up to new music or to critically thinking about music they already have heard. Use this as a bell ringer, a weekly listening activity for a choral or instrumental class, or use it for a semester music survey/history class. I think that these can be used for middle school or high school. Middle school students will definitely need more support along the way. Please always watch/listen to the songs first to make sure they are the censored version.

Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced Music Curriculum
This is a music curriculum for someone being homeschooled as it is more of a laid-back format to appreciate, learn from, and apply basic music concepts (once you've purchased Musical BINGO, AKA, MUSIC and the headphone listening program, Acoustify Your Mind, from my TPT store). Depending on skill level, it is designed for a student to spend 1 year on each level, therefore starting in grade 3, for example, and finishing at the end of grade 5.
The curriculum spends 8 to 12 weeks weaving its way

Music Composer Bracket Project: History
This is a Word Document that I created to use as an ongoing year-long project for all of my music students during off-site learning. The concept is for students to research 8 different composers, document that research, and pick their favorite out of those 8 using a sports bracket diagram. The document is completely customizable - I am starting with the Classical Era of music, but will be editing the document to include every era throughout our school year. After multiple brackets are complete,
