Concert band actually went really well today! I kind of grew more into how to get them to stay on task. I'm letting on student each day lead a short warm up. This is kind of my treat to them, and if they misbehave, I'll take it away. They really like being involved like this and it's fun to see them step up and lead.

I'm curious to find out what blog system you happen to be using? I'm experiencing some minor security issues with my latest blog and I'd like to find something more secure. Do you have any solutions?

Yeah, you never know how the students will respond, especially when the activity or the questions are more about the elements of music. I'm glad to hear that it was actually a pleasant surprise! Sometimes get some really great ideas out of the students, and sometimes it's just the same handful that'll actually raise their hand. It's fun to try things differently once and while though, even if the idea seems "crazy," because it's cool to see your students think about and to the music in different ways.
