So... that zero with the slash is called "null". Anyway... O...M...G. I loved this video. I could geek out on assessments all day long. Not a music teacher... I'm an english (EFL) teacher. But... wow. I've seen (and have tried to correct) some absolutely terrible assessment rubrics. I knew you were legit when I saw actual numbers. I do the same thing. 0 mistakes, 1-2 mistakes, 3-5 mistakes, etc. I think the most important thing I learned in my Uni assessments course was that, given a rubric, 10 different teachers should all come up with the exact same grade. So, you know, no subjectivity whatsoever. That said, quick shout-out that I came from another of your videos. In my free periods, if a music class is scheduled, I often sit in on the class. As a musician, I love helping kids with music, so I really appreciate your videos. I'm currently teaching at elementary schools (overseas), so I'm excited about trying to learn more about early childhood music pedagogy. I even bought a soprano recorder so I could follow along with the lessons. You have a new subscriber!
Thank you so much for the compliments! Also, thanks for the info on null... I'm glad I know what to call it now. So glad you are having fun with the recorder. There are some great RUclips videos out there for kids that start with BAG. I think you will enjoy those. Also, thanks for watching even though this isn't your discipline. What a nice thing!
@@teachingmusicwithsusan7729 The third and fourth graders I've worked with have gone a bit beyond BAG (I actually had a student ask me how to play the high C (LH 2nd finger thumb) and high D (LH 2nd finger no thumb) before they were taught in class), but it's really been fun learning and teaching them at the same time! We've been slowly working our way up to playing Sakura Sakura (I teach in Japan), but I've seen problems with some other students WRT rhythm (dotted quarter notes, etc), so it was really nice to see a music teacher's perspective on teaching rhythm and melody etc. I'll keep watching your videos and I hope to learn a bit more about how to help my students in their music classes. =)

I am transitioning to teaching music next year… thank you so much for your videos! Do you have your assessment materials available online?
I'm excited for you! I do not have any products online. I hope the video gives you ideas. Feel free to use all the formatting and wording you see.
