This site affords the elementary general music teacher with an abundant, useful collection of music sites. From professional development to lesson plans, from advocacy to seasonal programming, the variety of sites will bring you to places on the web too numerous to count. I have focused on several places that offer specific lesson plans and interactive games for your students to try. These are not just places you will visit. The information you find here will translate directly into your everyday teaching.

The following sites will bring a new dimension to your classroom. They are particularly suited for expanding your song repertoire, for teaching through musical bulletin boards and for musical games. In planning your musical units for each month of the year, visit these sites first!
