Music is a part of all school performances and ranges from traditional southern songs to blues, contemporary music and originals. Younger students love animals tales, funny true-life, stories, Native myths and of course, spooky stories. I give them lots of opportunities to participate with movement, song and sound effects. Older students love my big ol blues voice. They are among my favorite audiences.
Teachers are often surprised to discover that they too can be really good storytellers.
It s exciting for them to develop such a useful skill that has so many applications to their curriculum. I am so glad you came to our school. I have never seen a person quite like you. You are so fun to work with. I made this poem for you.
