Today on The Anacrusic Podcast, I’m talking with my friend Ally all about Social Emotional Learning in the music classroom. This is one of those hot topic issues in education and music education right now, and for good reason! In the midst of teaching in a pandemic, and especially teaching music in a pandemic, incorporating social emotional learning strategies into our lessons in meaningful ways is one of the best things we can do for our kids. Lucky for us, today Ally breaks it down in a way that is a 100% natural extension of what we’re already doing in the music classroom. 

Here’s a sneak peek of what you’ll hear on today’s podcast: 

• Ally’s background in music pedagogy and social-emotional learning (this girl knows her stuff!) 
• The five competencies that make up social-emotional learning and how to implement them into your teaching, right now 
• Where to start if you’re looking to start incorporating SEL strategies in your own teaching.
