photo: Laura SindbergWhat is CMP? “I heard about it somewhere….but I forget where…not quite sure what it is…” Sound familiar?

In this session, we will get a taste of this model designed to help students understand the music they are learning in band, choir, and orchestra. Participants will experience CMP through a hands-on session designed to illuminate what CMP is as well as how and why it works. From there, our conversation will include thoughts on implementation, including a few subversive strategies to incorporate in your teaching.

Wisconsin Teacher Standards: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
Wisconsin Music Standards: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H
