Those of you that know me, know that I am never without music! I luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuv music! All types of music. I have a very eclectic collection from Dean Martin to Jay-Z, Hank Williams to Chopin on my iPod. I love to push shuffle and just feel what come on. I come from a family of musicians~but I consider myself to be a PROFESSIONAL bathroom/car singer. I cannot read music for the life of me, but have the strange ability to pick up an instrument and play by ear.
I saw this Linky Party today that Amanda over at Teaching Maddness is hosting,
and had to Jump On It {Fresh Prince & Carlton}.
So, here goes.
I play lots of music throughout the day in my classroom. I especially love these...
ANY of the Putumayo discs fit well daily in the classroom.
I play a variety of music for the kiddos including:
LOTS of classical aka our "thinking" music
Frank Sinatra
Bob Marley
Dr. Jean
Greg and Steve
Jack Hartman
Ella Fitzgerald
Jack Johnson
And the list goes on...and on......only to....
Have a great day friends!
These are wonderful selections. I gotta check out that Jazz for Kids CD as well as Putumayo World Music. I am always on the lookout for new great background tunes.

The title of your post cracked me up!! I'm glad I'm not the only one who's a professional bathroom singer! Thanks for sharing these selections. I haven't heard of these yet so I look forward to exploring them more. :)

You are so funny! I love that your list has Jack Hartmann right before Ella Fitzgerald! Ha! I'm sure Jack would be thrilled to know he rates right up there with the best of them! :)
ReplyDeleteI added your blog to my new list of blogs at Kindergarten Network. Stop by sometime and check it out when you have a chance and let me know if I left out any details you would like me to add.

I am so far behind on my blogging and blog reading! I had to come see what you were up to. The fact that you mentioned you listened to Jay-Z makes me like you even more. I love him. Did you end up going to Vegas? If you did, I want to hear all about it! I WILL make it there next year. I need to start a fundraising campaign.
