The first time I was told that due to a lack of classrooms, I would lose mine, I waited until I got home to cry. I had spent about two months in a room that was beautiful, spacious, and frankly, easy to make music in... and now it was not mine anymore.
​
I didn’t know the first thing about going from classroom to classroom to teach music other than it was going to be soul-sucking. I gathered that much from the way other elementary music teachers talked in hushed, drained voices about their exhausting experiences.
​
After the initial shock faded and my tears were spent, I started to scour the internet for anything or anyone who could help me relearn how to teach music. I found a few articles here and there and one book, but that was it.
​
This blog is a page solely dedicated to walking through cart challenges and solutions together as a music teaching community. I will post what little wisdom I have gained. I invite you to do the same.
