Dustin's+Differntiation+Instruction+Resources

[] This is a link to a forum on the Music Educators National Conference (MENC) webpage. The topic is Differentiated instruction in the K-2 music classroom. Many of the activities and music theorists discussed I have implemented already in my classroom such as principals of Orff (Using patterns and xylophones to build music knowledge, ability, and understanding). The recommended resources described in the discussion are viewable online, through either browser search or Amazon.com.

[] This link is to a Florida Choir director's webpage. I found it helpful because it focuses on Multiple Intelligences, Differentiated Instruction, and it gives specific examples of how it has been implemented in her classroom. While this may not relate specifiically to non-music educators, it still can give different ideas and ways of thinking/constructing lesson plans concerning differentiated instruction. I would most likely use this with my Jr. and Sr. high bands as well as my high school guitar class.
