[Music] Ways to Better Support LGBTQ+ Youth in Music Classrooms

ksurajbali — 2023-11-30 04:37:48 UTC

My highlights:

Don’t divide the students by boy/girl for seating, lines, or teams.
Don’t perpetuate instrument or voice-type gender stereotypes. Boys can play the flute and girls can play tuba.
If a student comes out to you, ask if anyone else knows. Just because they were ready for you to know does not mean they are ready for other teachers or their parents to know.
