Presented by Janine Slaga

Time: Monday July 12, 10:00 EDT (Eastern Daylight Time)

Children love stories. They love picture books. They love music. Put them all together and you will get your students (even the older ones) engaged in your lesson right away! In this session, we will use a variety of picture books to build musical thinking and creativity into your lessons. You will leave this session with a list of diverse picture books and some activities you can use with your PreK to Grade 5 classes right away!

During this session, Janine will help you:

- Learn what to look for in picture books to ensure they support learning, as opposed to just being entertaining fillers.

- Gather ideas for developing lessons from the books you already have.

- Take away some lesson ideas to implement right now.
