Music Professional Day
Welcome to Lewis.
For the first part of our in-service we’ll be looking at ways that you can incorporate technology into your teaching. We’ll visit some of the sites below and I’ll demo some of the technology.
In the second part we’ll look at two specific programs that kids can use in your music class.
For our final act we’ll open it up to sharing ideas/lesson to the whole group.
