I am a #MusicTeacher working on my masters in #ElementaryEd @AustinPeay. I created this account for class #ap3040 and to connect with #MusicEducators!

@drzimmerle @SFecich Thank you @drzimmerle - this was fun!

A3: (Part 2) We could also put a "Meet your Specials Teachers" column in our EMES newsletter! #ap3040

[Emily Morgan @MsMorganMusic]

A3: I will be starting to use #ClassDojo and can introduce myself to parents on there. Looking forward to including musical events around town as well! #ap3040

@Michael03446047 That is a great idea to link a video to your page! I think I might copy that and do a #MusicRoomTour!

@drzimmerle @austinpeay @APSUeduc I always get good snack ideas from students!! #goldfish and #ricekrispies

[Emily Morgan @MsMorganMusic]

A2: I will create #flipgrids for students to introduce themselves and answer music questions, and create #blogposts for students to share music findings. I also play a roll-the-dice game with different questions to answer! #ap3040

A1: CMCSS music teachers will be doing a hybrid of online teaching as well - I will introduce myself in my first video as I will be teaching LOTS of new kiddos online with #VirtualLearning. Also I always do #Powerpoint with lots of pictures! #apsu3040.

@drzimmerle I do! I got an #AmazonBasics one for a great price and LOVE it!

I am excited to join the #ap3040 chat! I teach at East Montgomery Elementary school. My favorite back-to-school accessory would be my laminator! #NothingIsSafe #EverythingLaminated

@MrsMHatfield I agree that #GoogleClassroom is great! There are helpful added features specifically geared toward distance learning too. I love that it can be used to encourage collaboration both with students, parents, and fellow teachers! It helps us stay in contact during #socialdistancing

@ESleadd Creating a warm environment where students feel calm and safe is important. I especially like the alternative star lighting in your picture. I use blue light covers in my classroom (linked below) and found these to be effective for creating a calm space!

A3: I have begun my journey to create a #TechnologyTooklit on #LiveBinder with ideas for using technology in my classroom. I have linked my binder below. Please send your comments and suggestions my way! I appreciate the feedback! #ap3040 #GovsTeach

A2: I plan to use #ClassDojo in my #ElementaryMusic classroom to encourage a positive class culture by awarding #kindness points to students demonstrating kind actions toward their peers and incentivizing good class behavior points with musical rewards like a #danceparty! #ap3040

[Emily Morgan @MsMorganMusic]

A1: I chose this classroom layout as my ideal classroom for its variety of space. I love the ability to have separation of choral structure with stands, while also having a large open space for #MusicalMovement. Picture found in a blogpost from Hilary's Highlights! #ap3040 #Music

I am excited to start my #teacher twitter journey today! Thank you @drzimmerle for assigning this for #ap3040. I have already learned so much through reading fellow #MusicEd #teachers posts! Looking foward to the journey in #Music #Elementary #Education! #GovsTeach #LetsGoPeay
