Hi Wonderful Band Family.
If you're been in band for more than a year (more than a day, really), you've probably heard me say the following: "It doesn't matter if I teach math, science, English or music...music just happens to be what my background is in. To me, teaching is about finding kids at an age that can be confusing and helping to mold them into good human beings." This is my teaching philosophy...it's why I teach. In band, we do more than learn about notes and rhythms and how to make sounds on our instruments. We learn about how to better ourselves as human beings, to be a valuable part of a team and family and how to build habits that help us be the best version of ourselves. This Life Skillz blog is intended to not only help you, the students, stay reminded of the skills we discuss in class, but to keep your parents involved in the process. Developing habits takes time, focus and energy. When your family is aware of your goals, when they know what you're working on as an individual, they can support you on that journey. So...let's get rolling on our life skillz!
