Jim Gill

Wow! Its actually been a full month since I posted!!! So bad!!!

Anyways I figured if anything would be worth being a "welcome back" blog this would be it. I got to meet Jim Gill.


Now he's not super famous or anything but if you're in the Early Childhood world he's kind of a big deal.

Were having a concert for our school tomorrow and after tonight I can't wait! He always does a "teacher training" the night before the concert because he talks about the importance of adult and child interactions for songs and finger plays. 

We got a bit of a preview of some songs we would be doing with the kids but also about how to use his music in the classroom. We discussed a few of the songs purpose and learning benefits. 

Over all it was a great night and I can't wait for tomorrow with the kids. Looking forward to how a few of his ideas work with some one my kiddos!!!
