First Note Teachers Share Stories

"First Note keeps us on task as it's sequential and 'scaffolds' the learning."

 

"I am a musician and incorporate singing/guitar into the lessons."

 

"My students gained vocabulary specific to music, learned to keep a beat and build a love for music."

 

"The kids love this music program. They are very engaged, sing the songs often and catch on to the concepts quickly.  I especially appreciate how they are learning music elements kinesthetically."

"Pinners" can create, share, collect and repost information in picture, image or video format. Welcome back Audrey!
