Using the WMEA Wisconsin Music Standards in Your Classroom!

November 2, 2018 By lfellenz

Join us to explore the WMEA Wisconsin Music Standards!  We will look at how the standards are organized, compare them to the National Standards & 1997 Wisconsin Music Standards, examine the new areas of Secondary General, Connecting, Technology,  and use with CMP.

But wait….there’s more!  On the second day, you’ll start working on your plans to incorporate the new Wisconsin Standards in your own school and classroom.  You may look at a piece of music, plan for one class or grade level, or plan a project based unit.  How do the new standards help you to strengthen the learning going on for your students? How can your work be featured on the WMEA Standards website?

An educational collaboration by WSMA and PBS Wisconsin Education

Re/sound: Songs of Wisconsin
In a state-wide survey and listening sessions with music educators, we learned about the need for current, authentic, culturally diverse resources, as well as support in teaching with and about music from different cultures. This multimedia collection for general music programs serving grades 4-8 includes video interviews with Wisconsin musicians, performances, audio files, and educator engagement guides designed to help activate the media with learners.
