Interactive handout/companion website for ILMEA Summer Learning Series session. Description of session follows: Do you struggle with composing in your classroom and don't seem to know where to start? Do you love composing and need some new ideas? If either is true, this session is for you. In this session, you will be introduced to numerous compositional frameworks and projects to get your students (and yourself) engaging and playing with sound in new and deeply meaningful ways. From tech-based tools to composing with children's literature, from mapping and soundscapes to musical storytelling, in this session, you will explore the joys (and struggles) of composing with your students while also discussing topics like conflict management and assessment. You will walk away with some ready-made projects to try, some pieces that you've composed, and plenty of your own creative compositional ideas.
