They need to know they're cared about. You show them, and hopefully you TELL them!

"I'm happy you're here" "I missed you when you were absent last week!" 

"It's always a pleasure, I look forward to next time"

"I'll think about what we might do differently next time -- I hope you do the same, because I enjoy our music time together."]]> 2021-11-02 17:49:24 UTC https://padlet.com/eguglielmo/5e89li8gofs5cao1/wish/1862429143 Being flexible. student choice goes hand in hand with inclusion https://padlet.com/eguglielmo/5e89li8gofs5cao1/wish/1862429620 2021-11-02 17:49:33 UTC https://padlet.com/eguglielmo/5e89li8gofs5cao1/wish/1862429620 https://padlet.com/eguglielmo/5e89li8gofs5cao1/wish/1862430138 Accompanying myself on the electric rather than the acoustic guitar, with occasional use of the whammy bar, gives students the feeling that they are in an unconventional, and yet welcoming environment. ]]> 2021-11-02 17:49:44 UTC https://padlet.com/eguglielmo/5e89li8gofs5cao1/wish/1862430138 https://padlet.com/eguglielmo/5e89li8gofs5cao1/wish/1862430891 Encourage mistakes.  Allow for "struggle" time for students to explore, expand, and develop their own strategies and solutions.  Celebrate the journey, not just the destination.]]> 2021-11-02 17:50:01 UTC https://padlet.com/eguglielmo/5e89li8gofs5cao1/wish/1862430891 https://padlet.com/eguglielmo/5e89li8gofs5cao1/wish/1862431107 Sometimes taking a break from making music.  I did a spooky music presentation where the students had to rate the music we were listening to spooky or not spooky.  We listened to music from different genres and the students could talk to each other about their opinions.


]]> 2021-11-02 17:50:06 UTC https://padlet.com/eguglielmo/5e89li8gofs5cao1/wish/1862431107 I encourage everyone to talk about the music, even if their views may not be popular or correct in other people's eyes.

They can come speak to me about anything, not just music. And for those who are shy, I mention that I love to receive letters so they are welcome to write me letters, too, if something is on their mind.
