A Teacher's Reflection on the Make & Take Session by Kim Stubbs

​On Wednesday, September 21, the Alberta Orff Chapter hosted a sold out make and take event at Crawford Plains School.

The afternoon featured the creation of a ‘sub tub’ complete with several games for division 1 and 2 students that can be used when music teachers need a substitute teacher for the day. The centre games reinforce many concepts such as, rhythm, tempo and dynamics, and names of classroom and orchestra instruments. Students will enjoy rotating through a variety of activities, like card games, bingo, and even fishing for rhythms. Planning for a sub is now a cinch, thanks to our brand new ‘sub tub’. Thanks to the board members for all the prep work and planning they put in to another successful make and take.
