I LOVE BOOKS!!! Yes, the paper kind.. I'm a little anti-digital when it comes to the printed word! I also love using them in the music room; they are a perfect vehicle to teach, review, sing, create, and play around with! Here are a few favorites; each one of these is a picture file you can download, print, and use! *A note about organization; begin to make an excel spreadsheet or word doc that includes grade levels you would use the book with, what skills/concepts can be taught, and when you might use this during the year; for example, when I introduce rests with kindergarten students in the spring after experiencing it, now we're ready to label it, I will put in my Kindergarten sheet, "Wide Mouthed Frog", SPRING, quarter notes, eighth notes, rest, LABEL rest, song, rhythm, Orff instruments. This helps me to keep track of not only what concepts/skills I can work on using that book, but when I might want to use it! Also, print a copy of the lesson, fold it and place it into the front page of the book! Sorry the Mitten in the Snow visual organization page is out of place.. couldn't move it and it's late.. :)

Put many of these Mounties on black horses, have them perform intricate formations in front of a crowd, and you have another of Canada’s most recognizable icons: the RCMP Musical Ride.

Denmark-based photographer and cellist Nikolaj Lund decided to reinvent the portraiture of classical musicians by taking the subjects out of their natural environment - the orchestra pit - and asking them do strange poses in places like streets, oceans and deserts. The results are beyond amazing!
This is so cool.
