Almost Everything I've Learned About Teaching Band

Listen Later

- One of his tools, and one I have been using for over a year, is his Function Chorales. These are composed using numbers rather than written music so they can be played in any key. You can find a free sample on the site.

- A tool I just recently purchased and am looking forward to using is Scaleworks.

- There are a lot of free tools and music available. Try out the free stuff and then purchase something to help your students and to enable more great materials to be created. 

- Tools like the Function Chorales are really affordable and Stephen gives you license to make as many copies as you need for the program they are purchased for.

- You can read more about Stormworks and Stephen Melillo HERE. There are a ton of resources and teaching on his site.
