Brief Resume:

     I attended UW-Eau Claire and majored in music performance. After graduation, I traveled with kids from Wisconsin and Sound spectrum performing across the U.S. and later in Scandinavia. I returned to UWM and became certified to teach vocal music for ages k-12. I am continuing to update my music education skill and am now a certified instructor of the Carl Orff method, having received my certificate from Mount Mary college in 2001.
 

Introduction to class:

     In the music classroom students become familiar with Elements of Music by engaging in listening, singing, group discussions, playing music and moving to music. All students also have opportunities to play together as an ensemble using rhythm instruments or xylophones. Third and Fourth graders also play recorder - a wind instrument that looks like a mini clarinet. Third graders attend a symphony concert. In other grades we have guest artists come to the classroom to demonstrate instruments.

     At Christmas time, each grade level sings 3 songs for the community in a Holiday extravaganza! The children are always so PROUD of how hard they work on this performance for their parents and friends.
