Finding Fearless

I teach in a rough neighborhood where the kids are the most vulnerable and defensive students I’ve ever had. My school has kids graduate 6th moving onto a school with 7th-12th graders in one building.

Rock star

My students all LOVE your songs. You have become a rock star in our classroom! Thanks so much for creating these great resources to help us build the kind of people we want to inhabit our world! 

Thanks for Whatever

Was super duper excited to come across your song Whatever. I always like to start off my “Anti-Bullying” unit with a song and follow-up activities, but admittedly, I need to jazz up this part!! This is wonderful and I am looking forward to using it with my kids soon! Thanks so much!

Bless the Mess

Your song Messy is a hidden treasure! Love the “bless the mess.” Perfect for stressful times. Not just for kids.

Great bundle resource for my after-school girls group! Love the lesson plans!

Digging Deeper

My students LOVE your songs!!! They make for great conversations and digging deeper into our reading!!! Can’t wait to use all of them!

What an excellent way to bring musical intelligence into mainstream learning. So vital and yet far too rare for many teens especially! Thanks!

Heart and Soul

My elementary GLEE CLUB sang this song and absolutely adored the music. I have to admit I got a little teary-eyed hearing them sing this! The piano part is also really fitting and beautiful to play. My kids sang it with such heart and soul! Thanks!!!
