I love playing music in the classroom!! When my students are working on their Weekend News, Doodle Writing, math games or practice pages, independent seat work, etc. I have my CD player or
ipod playing. Music calms the kids, gets the creative juices flowing, and makes us happy!
Here are a few of my beloved favorites:
I absolutely, positively LOVE Jack Johnson and his music! You can't go wrong with any of these.
The Lilo & Stitch movie soundtrack is awesome!
The Rio soundtrack is a fun one that my kids instantly recognize when it comes on. :)
I'd love to hear what you play in your classroom and what your favorites are! Happy Friday everyone!
I use music a lot too. Sometimes I just put Pandora on set at Beethoven while they do Write to Self. They love it.

I also LOVE playing Jack Johnson in my classroom. I play a good bit of Michael Buble as well...he is so soothing for writing time!
