On Saturday, September 7, 2019 Mrs. de Silva attended “Boomwhackers, Drums & More!” A workshop for music teachers, presented by Chris Judah-Lauder, a music educator, author, and certified Orff Instructor. They explored sequenced process for creating and playing successful compositions and game activities through guided exploration. They used hand drums, boomwhackers, barred instruments, and even metal folding chairs, with a strong emphasis on cooperative learning, accountability, and classroom management! She can't wait to share all the fun thing she learned with the students! ​
