Comment on Reflections on Orff Level III by Jerry Bradley

Congratulations! I finished my Level III at SMU this summer also. I was in Steve Calantropio’s basic class. He emphasized process and recommended starting every lesson with speech and/or movement. We played name that mode and shared The Street Song on the final day. I’m fired up for the fall. I teach in an urban magnet school near Dallas. While at SMU, Dr. Julie Scott, Pres. of AOSA gave me a great interview for my podcast. It’s here if anyone is interested.

Again, congratulations on certifying in Orff-Schulwerk!

This is an excellent post. I was expecting to read a post about Orff methodology, but I was delightfully surprised that you directed this post as a personal reflection on how you can become a better music educator. When we take professional development courses, as nice as it is to learn the methodologies, it is even better to learn more about yourself as an educator. Again, great post!

Very cool idea to keep things interactive for the children. They look as if they’re having fun too.

This seems to be so frustrating. We always look for safer ways to collect and store my frequently watched videos in my classroom. And I completely agree with you when you cited your points about YouTube and TeacherTube. Well, let us just hope for the best. I am certain that there would be lots of innovations available online to render us the kind of service we truly need and deserve. Thanks again and more power. Please keep on posting contents on some useful music teachers resources. Thanks again and more power. Have a nice weekend! Cheers!
