Dear Future Me,
Hello! Here are some more observations!
9)Secondary
I observed Mr. Certalics class twice actually. It was a great experience. I'm not an orchestra person and it was great to see what goes on.
10)Jazz Band
Holy Cow, if I ever have a Jazz Band I will contact everyone I know of in the area to come demonstrate and give me pointers. Mr Burdahl conducts it so well. It was so cool that they had a warm up where they all played an improvised solo. I got to count them off! "A-one, A-two, A-one-two-three-four!"
MC does a fantastic job of teaching bow technique through etude practice. Remember that when you graduate from MSU you will have certification in K-12 Band, choir, ORCHESTRA. You should be comfortable teaching strings at at least a beginning level...don't sell yourself short, you can do it!
