Teaching Choral Concepts: Laminated Classroom Posters (set of 21)

Description

by Duane S. Crowther

Twenty-one attractive Teaching Choral Concepts Laminated Classroom Posters, printed on one side of 17¹/2″ x 23″ paper and laminated for long-term durability, have been pre­pared for display in choral-music  classrooms. Presented with clarity and simplicity, these posters illustrate numerous essentials of good singing. These are the key con­cepts of many of the lessons in the Teaching Choral Concepts instructional curriculum. They are self-contained and meaningful, even to those with no knowledge of the course materials. The twenty-one posters have been created to enhance student learning. Carefully prepared with strong student appeal, they capsulize many key concepts and make an attractive addition to the appearance of the classroom. They can be rotated or left in place for long-term student exposure. Some schools even have them posted in outside hallways because they draw the interest of potential program participants as well as present choir members. They are durable and can be used for years to provide ongoing enhancement to choral-music programs. These Laminated Classroom Posters are an excellent long-term choral-department teaching investment!  {tcc 06}
