As you all know, music is a large part of my life. I have always found great pleasure and peace in listening to and playing music. Can you imagine my excitement when the music teacher asked me to teach her classes while she was gone? Well, I was just overjoyed! Turns out it is not very exciting. The last two days, I have played many music-related games with elementary students and when I say played games with I really mean tried to keep the peace and somewhat quiet while the children acted crazy and out-of-control! It is like being in a zoo. Luckily I had some good experiences as well. I got to conduct the 6th grade and 7th/8th grade bands. The 6th graders are still large pains in my behind, but the 7th/8th grade band was a blast! They play pretty well and actually enjoy being in band! Next week, I will also have the opportunity to teach high school band and choir. I am certainly looking forward to that!
Flux. What does that mean to you? To Ryan and I it is a wonderful card game that we began playing tonight. He got the game as a gift from a friend for his birthday and it is so much fun! It would be a lot of fun with a large group of people! Maybe this summer when we are home we can get a bunch of people together to play games and bring this one along.
