The authors provide an overview of ELL instruction, including insights into ELL terminology and an explanation of the ELL program models present in schools today. They also recommend easy-to-implement ELL strategies that will significantly improve the music classroom for all students. Throughout the book, teachers will find hundreds of practical Spanish words and phrases--alongside their English translations--that cover everything from specific musical terms and instructions to basic conversational Spanish. Additionally, Prosek and Nelson provide bilingual vocabulary cards ready-made for photocopying and convenient templates of bilingual letters to send home. The authors also dedicate three chapters to selecting repertoire with the ELL student in mind. Prosek and Nelson discuss how to choose linguistically and culturally diverse songs, and they include a carefully selected list of fifteen Spanish songs and fifteen English songs--complete with music notation, teaching suggestions, and translations--to put to use in the classroom right away. Designed for music teachers with any level of experience with Spanish, Spanish for Music Teachers is the perfect music curriculum companion. This much-needed resource equips teachers with the practical tools to immediately make a significant and lasting impact on all students.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Preservice Music Teacher Education in the United States written by Colleen Conway and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Preservice Music Teacher Education in the United States identifies the critical need for change in Pre-K-12 music education. Collectively, the handbook's 56 contributors argue that music education benefits all students only if educators actively work to broaden diversity in the profession and consistently include diverse learning strategies, experiences, and perspectives in the classroom. In this handbook, contributors encourage music teachers, researchers, policy makers, and music teacher educators to take up that challenge. Throughout the handbook, contributors provide a look at ways music teacher educators prepare teachers to enter the music education profession and offer suggestions for ways in which new teachers can advocate for and adapt to changes in contemporary school settings. Building upon students' available resources, contributors use research-based approaches to identify the ways in which educational methods and practices must transform in order to successfully challenge existing music education boundaries.
