Music is good for the soul

Music Note, Quaver, Png, ...
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm when you get the blues
It only cost a dime, just a nickel a shoe
Does a million dollars worth of good for you
Get rhythm, when you get the blues
      

 Whenever I hear the term Rad Rhythm, the track 'Get Rhythm' by Johnny Cash begins to play in my head hence why I started this post with one of the verses from this classic song. 

Today our music specialist Caleb Strickland explained the basics behind the Rad Rhythm course. 

The Rad Rhythm course is a program that:


  1. Enables teachers without musical skills to teach music.
  2. Offers schools an affordable and effective music program.
  3. Provides an online, relevant and highly interactive learning platform that is in line with what the children of today expect and deserve.
  4. Teaches children the fundamentals of music and encourages them to think outside of the box.



I had some experience with the program last year. The kids LOVED it. Yes, it was loud but the kids were engaged. Rad Rhythm has both a theoretical and practical component to it. 

I will do most of the lessons with my students. I will take this on as another way to bond with them as we both learn.

Music has a funny way of bringing people together 😊 🎶
