Curriculum. Using her music resources, Donna will introduce activities and strategies that can be used to create positive, musical, learning experiences for students. Many selections will be perfect for elementary school classrooms and for concerts and assemblies.
Reproducible vocal scores, lyrics and student worksheets provided in Donna’s publications allow teachers to make multiple copies for their students without going bankrupt (or going to jail). Her award-winning, professionally recorded CDs are included in the teaching resources. The CDs provide full performance tracks as well as instrumental accompaniment tracks for all songs.
Repertoire from Donna Rhodenizer’s Song Collections, Teacher’s Resources and CDs supports the teaching of music expectations as outlined in the curriculum. Her resources also provide cross-curricular connections to other subject areas.
