Google+ Account Settings Test

I am simply writing this (very short) blog entry to see how it connects to my Google+ account.  I'll even add a picture!  Be sure to check out my other blog, IWB-Music, sometime soon!

Tumbler Tour

I was driving home the other day, and I saw this sitting in a hotel parking lot.

IWB Music

I have decided to create a new blogger account for professional purposes.  Please check out IWB Music for new and fun interactive music websites.  I will be using this blog for personal use... which means it probably won't get updated much.

Take care,
Will

CPR is Music to My Ears

Hands Symphony

I just got re-certified in CPR yesterday, so I thought I would share this fun body percussion web site!  I pray that I never have to use CPR, but it's nice knowing that I can help if needed.  Hands can do incredible things!

The Rhythm Trainer

http://www.therhythmtrainer.com/

This is one the sites that I use on a near daily basis.  It can be used with the whole class on an Interactive Whiteboard, or it can be used by each student in a computer lab or wireless laptop lab.

There are two modes to the site.  In "Mode A," the students listen to a rhythm and transcribe what they hear by pressing each beat's rhythmic pattern.  In "Mode B," the students are shown a rhythm, and are given four audio examples to choose from to make a correct match.

I use this site mostly on my IWB at the beginning of each class.  It's a fun way to get the class started, and the students are learning to identify rhythms.

Welcome to WEBraune!  This site is designed to help music educators find quality interactive web-based resources for their students.  I have been using my school website for a number of years to post these links, but am hoping to branch out and help more people find great sites more easily.
