This manual is designed as a supplemental resource for college methods classes, student teachers, new and veteran teachers alike. Your education courses provided the foundation for a successful career as an educator. This ebook provides essential strategies to apply that knowledge in your everyday teaching and addresses each aspect of creating and maintaining a successful music program. The ebook includes developing lessons, preparing for concerts, planning your year, and classroom management, and passing out instruments. Teachers tend to be busy and often do not have time to read through pages of narrative, so these tips are written in outline form.
