Anne and Victoria are back on the mic! In this episode, they share dissertation updates, a Teaching Music Yesterday, and a Pedagogy Corner.

In Dissertation Updates, Victoria shares her research on classroom management and active music making in 4th and 5th grade, and why upper elementary students can seem like completely different kids than they were in 2nd and 3rd grade. Anne shares her research on music teachers’ self-efficacy for singing and growth mindset, especially for instrumentalists who find themselves teaching in a singing-based classroom.

In Teaching Music Yesterday, Victoria shares a secret rule game from her child-centered play therapy training that she uses with King’s Land instead of the chase game. In Pedagogy Corner, Anne talks about having her methods students notate a new song and sing it in solfège before teaching it by rote, because the first time we sing a song is the way the kids are going to hear it. Thank you for listening!
