Studio Teacher Thanksgiving

Studio Teacher Thanksgiving: Day 1

Welcome to DAY ONE of Studio Teacher Thanksgiving! 🥂

This is the THIRD year I'm hosting a weeklong celebration of intentional gratitude. I think three years constitutes "a thing", right? Is Studio Teacher Thanksgiving officially a thing?!

I love the way this week draws many of us closer together as we share our experiences.

First things first...

This is the ONLY time of year I send daily emails. You'll hear from me this week Monday through Friday.

Click here to OPT-OUT of this week's Studio Teacher Thanksgiving emails.
You'll still receive One Thought Thursdays.

The (3 min) video, above, introduces our first point of gratitude for the week.

Spoiler Alert: Today we're giving thanks for the privilege of being "history in the making".

So often, we get caught up in the status quo and fail to recognize the impact we are making on the music lesson experience for future generations.

I hope you will take a few moments and consider the legacy *you* are leaving those in your circle of influence.

It's Giveaway Time! After all, what's Studio Teacher Thanksgiving without a little GIVING?!

Today, I'm giving away these four books by Vicky Weber.

These interactive stories are perfect for those of you who work with littles and/or keep a lending library of music-related books.

Rhythm Rescue is a hardback and the other three are soft cover.

To enter: Simply REPLY TO THIS EMAIL before 10pm tonight (EST) and tell me something YOU hope to leave students as part of your Music Teacher Legacy.

Maybe it's something simple? Maybe it's deep? Either way, I think there's something really powerful in putting these things in writing.

Tomorrow morning, I will announce a winner (chosen at random) from the names of those who reply. It's that simple! ❤️

*In case you're curious, my giveaways this week are not sponsored by anyone. Just a little love from me to you!

Our celebrations of gratitude will continue in my Facebook group this week. Teachers in this group lead with empathy and kindness. They are truly a sampling of the best humans I know.

...that's all for today, Teacher Friends! I'll see you again tomorrow for Day TWO of Studio Teacher Thanksgiving!
