Hello to Howe and Becker Students 2022-2023
This year I am happy to be placed at the Howe Montessori and Center Based Learning building and also at Becker. I look forward to sharing photos of things we are doing in the music classroom this year. If we have not yet met here is a photo of me in the classroom. Stop by to say hello sometime.
A Beautiful Thank You Note
This morning I received a beautiful thank you email from a family I have never met. They found my site while searching for music resources to use while learning from home. The thank you letter was very heart-warming and started my day off with a ray of sunshine. 🌞 Since they have been using resources from my page they wanted to share a resource with me to possibly add to my page.
Here is the Piano Resource they so graciously shared with me. 😊🎶
And, D. H., for your young flutist, here are two of my newest discoveries. Emmanuel Pahud is a great flutist. Search out any of his videos just to watch and be inspired. And my friend, Jeff Zook, also has great resources.
To A. H., M.H (aka K. H.), and D. H. thank you for your kindness. I wish you all the best.
Musically,
Mrs. Celeste Reed
Welcome Back!
Are you all as excited as I am to begin a new school year? I know this year looks quite a bit different than last year but it can still be very wonderful. We are all switching over to Schoology so I will not be using my blog any more.
An update on my schedule: I am happily teaching general music classes at Maples and Howard this year. I am excited to be teaming up with my friends, Mrs. Meyers and Mrs. Bagnall.
I wish all of my students from last year and beyond the best. I hope you all have a great year of learning. Please keep in touch and let me know how you are doing.
Congratulations!
To all of my students being promoted to the next grade level, here is a video link containing familiar music for such a celebratory time as this:
Exploration
Looking for more music resources? Check out my Virtual Music Classroom: Mrs. Reed’s Classroom Click on this link and then remember to select “Present” to activate the page. This week I would recommend clicking on the photo that is on the left in my virtual classroom (see diagram below). This will open the Google music Chrome pages. In a previous post, I asked you to click on the Monkey image for some fun with rhythms. This time I would like you to click on all images and have fun exploring!
See my diagram above?
Music Activity on Google!
Check out this fun music activity on Google today. These special activities are usually available only for one day so don’t miss this chance to play the Mbira. After you go to this page and learn about and play the Mbira send me an email and share with me something that you learned or liked about this page. reedc@dearbornschools.org
Missing Music Lessons?
Here is a quick link chart for all of Mrs. Reed’s lessons. No pressure to do them all but this might be helpful to those of you working toward an improved grade.
