Hi again! Have you ever wondered what your favorite kind of music says about your personality? I often have, especially since I have such a diverse interest in music. I actually listen to almost any kind of music, depending on the mood I am in. With that being said, let me show you my first infographic!
I apologize for the pictues- I’m a bit paranoid about copyright-as most music/library teachers are, so I drew them all myself! You can see why I didn’t go into art. 🙂
Our first lesson in second, third, fourth, and fifth grade music class will be exploring the kinds of music we listen to, which is why I thought this topic might be interesting. While we won’t be making an infographic (yet) we will be showing our musical interests and background through another visual aid:
For this I used a site called tagxedo. For my infographic I used a site called Easel.ly
I think these are great ways to both present and receive information, especially for visual learners. Are any of you visual learners? Leave me a comment and let me know! I am a kinesthetic learner, which means I learn best by doing. I am especially good at learning through teaching. For example; I still attribute my A in college Biology to my ex-boyfriend. He slept through the entire class and I had to stay up all night before the final exam to reteach the information to him. I was not happy about it at the time, but later I realized that I probably would not have understood the information as well if I had not had to teach it to him!
Less than a week until teacher workdays begin, and less than two weeks until school starts! I can’t wait to meet everyone! Have a great last few weeks of summer!
