JoyTunes makes absolutely phenomenal piano learning apps, especially PianoMaestro, which I use with my second graders. They download the app on their iPads, and it guides them through the basics of piano playing, all the way through playing simple songs and melodies. It's definitely worth checking out!

I know this isn't a "website", per se, but I need to share Dudamel conducting the fourth movement of Dvorak's "New World Symphony" since I just bookmarked the listening map. This is such a wonderful performance, and it demonstrates how crucial the conductor is in coercing a certain sound from the performers!

This is a great website called wheeldecide.com. It's one of the only "spinner" websites I've been able to find, and it works perfectly for when you've got some extra time with your younger elementary students. I just load up the songs and games they know, and I let one of the students spin the wheel and we sing and/or play whatever song/game comes up. They love it!

Carnegie Hall made an animated and interactive listening map for all four movements of Dvorak's "New World Symphony" and it's wonderful! I use this with my sixth graders during our music history unit!

This is a VERY old website, but if you teach square dancing (we do "Camptown Races" in fourth grade), this is the resource for you! You can click around to find detailed names and instructions for probably any square dance move you can think of, and each one also includes an animated GIF showing what each move should look like. This was a great resource for me as a non-dancer!

If you teach any sea chanteys, you might be able to find some information as well as an authentic recording of them at this website by the Hyde Street Chantey Singers. (I've found that Firefox works best for this website, for some reason.) I use this site when we learn "John Kanaka" in fifth grade.

This is a great Prezi I happened to find as I was looking for resources to teach "Sansa Kroma" to my third graders. If you use that song in your setting, it's worth checking out!

This is an excellent, short article about the history of the blues that my fifth graders read during our blues unit.

If you're not using Kahoot yet, you're missing out! It's a great place to find and create review quizzes that students can interact with using their iPads (or even their own phones for older kids). They absolutely love when we play Kahoot in our classroom!

This site is FANTASTIC, and I hope it never goes away! It's got each instrument's preeminent part from Britten's "Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra" and I use it as review as well as for a summative listening assessment where students have to identify the instrument that's playing.
