Hi!
My name is Lauren, I'm a band director in the Cincinnati, OH area.  I am beginning this blogging journey for my benefit, as well as (hopefully) yours!

Let me first start by saying..........I am a pinterest junky. There I said it!

I've recently been in a slump looking for creative ideas and just good ideas to use in the beginning, middle, and high school band classroom.  So where do I start to look? PINTEREST duh!
Unfortunately, all I could find were these adorable blogs for elementary school music, idea after idea of the most adorable lesson plans and crafts for the elementary school music room.

While I thoroughly enjoyed reading all of these, it didn't give me much help for my older kids....they would revolt if I had them do something like "dice rhythms" or put a "rhythm tree" on my bulletin board.

So I thought...while I'm not the most qualified or experienced person to be giving advice about how to run a band, but I know my stuff and I'm defiantly creative sooooo......

This blog will be a place for Band classroom ideas, music advocacy, and more :)

(Please let me know if you have any ideas or thoughts you would like to share!!)
