Music for the Middle School Classroom


One of my most popular posts ever was my Pandora Stations for the Middle School Classroom


I thought I would let you guys know about another gem that I found that my students LOVED!

Rhett Price on Youtube does violin covers of current popular songs. When my classes were doing independent work I would put his channel on a playlist in the background (just listening, not watching). It was awesome to see the students bopping along and singing to themselves as they worked. 

***Tip: Because my kids were so into these songs there was never a peep from anyone. If anyone dared to try to speak the rest of the class would shush them so they could keep listening. 

Here are a few of my students favorites:
