music in the classroom
By Misty

Clip to ScrapBook   
When we are working on something that takes great concentration, I play classical music or nature sounds. There are some great ones out there. My kids really like one called Solo Guitar that I got from Target. Target has a display set up with this kind of music, and you can preview it all right there. When we are doing something "projecty" that doesn't require too much deep thought I play James Taylor. It's good, but it doesn't hype the kids up. Also Enya is kind of flexible. The only time I don't play music is during a test. Next year I am thinking of putting a waterfall in my classroom. Either a real one or a picture of one with sounds. Hope some of this helps, sorry I rambled so long. E-mail me if you have any questions
