The Instructional Power of Music
Monte Selby
Music can impact learning and behavior—in classrooms, advisory, hallways, activities, and staff development. It is a powerful tool for organizing, transitioning, and ending lessons. It offers a dynamic link to establishing student-driven learning, writing, creative collaboration, and respectful behaviors. Come examine why the brain loves music through a hands-on exploration of highly motivating, ready-to-use strategies. Leave with powerful academic, social, and leadership activities that require reflection, movement, research, respect, interaction, and laughter!
