l Common Core (Re-Imagining the Music Rehearsal and
Classroom)Paul Kimpton & Ann Kimpton. Teaching in the 21st
century can be a daunting yet exhilarating experience. It is daunting
because a plethora of initiatives have been hurled at educators from
every direction. Current and future music educators must continually
adapt their teaching philosophies, strategies, rehearsals, music
selection processes, assessment practices, and grading procedures
to justify one of the most important subjects a student can study,
and that is music. Common Core: Re-Imagining the Music Rehearsal
and Classroom, complete with workbook exercises and reflective
questions, is about transforming a written document, The Common
Core State Standards, into practical applications in the music
classroom. Authors Paul and Ann Kimpton outline how to use the
Common Core State Standards to help students develop a higher level
of understanding of musical skills and content, and to help students
engage with music more deeply and with more meaning. Intended
for kindergarden through college music educators, administrators,
and pre-service educators, this book is an excellent resource that
can have a profound impact on the music classroom.

n Everyday Wisdom for Inspired TeachingTim Lautzenheiser.
What are the secret ingredients of master teachers? If you were
a student in your class, what would you be learning? Would it
be both exciting and valuable? How do you create a disciplined
classroom environment without becoming a dictator? How can
failure become a pathway to success? What are the qualities of
true leaders? Tim Lautzenheiser explores the real-world questions,
fears, and doubts all outstanding educators have. In the process,
he discovers a gold mine of opportunities for teachers to assess
their own effectiveness and reach the highest levels possible. In
four parts (The Art of Teaching; Developing an Attitude for Success;
Teacher Leadership Skills; and Selection and Encouragement of
Student Leaders), Tim calls teachers and administrators to action.
He writes, "It is easy to 'dream the dream' and even exciting to sit
down and 'draw up the plan,' but doing it, actually taking action,
seems to be where many halt... Don't react: act."
