SUMMARY:CLASSROOM VISIT – PARK SPANISH IMMERSION ELEMENTARY – ST. LOUIS PARK PUBLIC SCHOOLS – WITH DAVID DAVIS\, K-5 MUSIC
DESCRIPTION:“THE INTENTION OF TEACHER-TO-TEACHER OBSERVATION IS THAT IT BE A TOOL FOR PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND\, IN TURN\, FOR STUDENT LEARNING.” \nREGISTRATION HERE \nOn November 13 from 7:00 am to 3:00 pm\, join Perpich Center facilitator Michael Buck\, at Park Spanish Immersion Elementary School in St. Louis Park as we visit the music classroom of David Davis.  \nBefore lunch\, we will attend several music classes to observe David’s routines\, procedures and methodology for implementing the Academic Standards for Music in his general music classroom. Participants will watch three\, 50-minute classes – one section each of grades 5\, 2\, and 3.

Lunch is pay on your own. \nHost teacher David Davis shares: From kindergarteners co-teaching songs from their own cultures to 4th and 5th graders composing original music to honor a community member on an instrument of their choosing\, creativity and student voice are at the heart of my self-design curriculum. My goal is to send the clear message that everyone is a musician regardless of technical skill or musical background. As a Science of Reading (LETRS)-trained educator\, I also integrate rhythmic and tonal literacy through sound-before-sight strategies\, supporting aspects of music literacy\, including speaking (improvising)\, reading\, writing (composing)\, and understanding (audiating) music. Every activity is designed to help students grow not only in musical skill\, but also in communication\, collaboration\, creativity\, cultural understanding\, and positive musician identity. \nTarget Audience: K-5 General Music Educators \nWhen: Thursday\, November 13\, 7:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. \nWhere: Park Spanish Immersion Elementary School\, 9400 Cedar Lk Rd S\, St Louis Park\, MN 55426 \nLunch & Debrief: Crossroads Deli https://www.crossroadsdelicatessen.com/ \nOther Details: \n\nThe day is facilitated by Michael Buck\, Music Education Specialist of Professional Development & Resource Programs at Perpich Center for Arts Education.\nRegistration is required and available on a first come\, first served basis.\nParticipants must attend the full day session.\nThere is no cost to attend\, however\, due to the limited space within this professional learning event\, please ensure that if you register\, you are able to attend.\nA certificate for 8 clock hours will be given after the workshop.\nLunch is pay on your own.
