I can’t believe how much is available through the online program and through the regular program. It has transformed what I do. I have had the books and CDs for years and incorporated them into my music teaching but this summer I decided to purchase the online program. Anything and everything is there, for all the age groups that I teach. And with the Online program, there is so much more. I watched a video the other day of you using stuffed toys to do a chase race with rhythms and I was stunned at how creativity you are supporting teachers during this difficult time by continuing to come up with these alternate solutions.
