Elizabeth Ann McAnally has written an excellent book, organized around the National Standards for Music Education, that every middle school--and upper elementary!--general music teacher will want to read and use. This is an easy read and is chock-a-block full of specific teaching strategies and games that are highly appealing, age-appropriate, and musical for today's middle schoolers. -- Persellin, Diane This book is an excellent resource for teaching general/vocal music to students in the middle years. It is based on real-world experiences from a veteran teacher who demonstrates compassion for meeting the challenges of teaching adolescents in an urban environment. Highly recommended! -- Virginia Lam Middle School General Music is firmly grounded in the belief that learning to do music results in learning about music. Instead of the far too-common drudgery of stereotypical worksheet-and-lecture music appreciation classes, McAnally offers activity-based music activities designed with the needs and interests of young adolescents in mind. These activities will apply equally well in school music situations with a variety of resources and budgets. McAnally's affinity for the middle school general music student shines through in this practical, approachable book. -- Patrick K.
