The students have been so receptive to anything I've taught. They're so hungry to learn that it makes it super enjoyable.

The students are great at being responsive to questions I ask about the music and are honest when they need to go over a passage again

Brian Balika has been very helpful in answering our questions and bringing up topics that might not have come up naturally in class. He had us look at scores and guess which one would be the best fit for the group and he went over instrument repair and storage.

I've gotten to see student's reactions to new material and warmups which help me gauge what I should do next time. It's incredibly helpful hearing their participation in person instead of over a computer, and also very rewarding seeing their effort. It's also awesome seeing students reactions to when you know their names and can connect more with them.

So far I have learned a lot about choosing repertoire for band and figuring out how to gauge where they are at. Our CT has talked with us multiple times on what he chose for each grade and had us try to guess what the pieces were. This was really helpful and it will definitely help me in the future to choose the correct repertoire so both me and my students can succeed.

The students have all been really nice to us as individuals and although they might sometimes act out during class, they still connect a lot with us outside of the lesson and we're building good rapport

At the beginning of clincals, there was this weird barrier between us being college students and them being middle schoolers. But as I talked to them more, they are unique individuals with vibrant personalities. Even if they are having a not so great day, I can tell they all want to learn. They just need a little help getting to the place they want.

these past two weeks I have been pushing myself to be more confident in my teaching in an ensemble setting and in sections and I have seen myself come out of my shell in being more open and willing to step in. I think I can do even more especially in being confident in my connection with students.

The students are all so different and unique but they are all excited to learn and show it. They all have so much potential as musicians and people, it makes me happy to teach them.

Ashley Z: I have been learning a lot from Mr. Kowalski.  We get to spend time with him during his planning period in the morning before classes start.  This way we can look at his music library, get advice, have discussions, and look at some of his music resources.  I like to have this one-on-one time with him to work on lesson plans and talk about ways that I can improve.

Mrs.Felder always finds ways to put in theory in the kids lessons. The other day she talked about the circle of fifths.

I want to teach more lessons and get even more comfortable being in front of the kids.

I feel so lucky to be working with Mr. Pakkebier. Having the opportunity to learn from someone who has over fifteen years of experience teaching music is awesome. He is always pushing everyone to reach their full potential. - Daisy Soberanis

I always forget how excited students are to learn in music class! I had all the students in the classes that I'm there for fill out a paper with why they joined band and I got some of the coolest answers and it has given me a lot of perspective. So many of them simply said they joined because they loved music which is so cool, even though it seems so obvious!

Lauren, Brittany, and I are working with Mr. Blank, who is a very inspiring educator.  As one of us may have mentioned in a previous class, his command over a variety of secondary instruments is incredible-- his ability to provide examples and models for every student is very impressive, and is something I would like to be able to achieve as a teacher as well.  Additionally Mr. Blank seems very organized in working with our group:  he organized a google doc for us to keep track of daily goals (as well as to communicate what we would be doing in class) and spent an hour with us discussing the potential outlets for our edTPA assignments.

I have learned a lot from my cooperating teachers! Mr. Blank and Mr. Anderson both seem to have great relationships with the students, interactive teaching, and a good understanding of the music that is being taught. I admire Mr. Blank's versatility on all instruments. I also appreciate how they have gotten us involved in various ways during the learning process.
