JacketFlap tags: Old MacDonald had a Dragon, librarians, Add a tag
I received a request the other day from a school librarian to add audio narration to my book trailer for Old MacDonald had a Dragon. I hadn't seen the need for it before until she reminded me that many of her kindergartners and 1st graders might struggle with reading the captions on my trailer. Great point! So, here's a narrated version of the picture book's trailer. Let me know what you think.

JacketFlap tags: lesson plan, Old MacDonald had a Dragon, Add a tag
I just posted a new lesson plan on my website called "Recognizing Patterns in Music and Children’s Literature". It's designed to help students meet music education standards for identifying similar and dissimilar phrases presented aurally in a piece of music and identifying musical phrases in a song presented aurally. The lesson plan accomplishes this by allowing students to explore and learn about patterns in music, including verse/refrain form. It teaches them and gives them the opportunity to practice echoing simple melodic phrases and singing developmentally appropriate songs.
Oh, and it also uses my picture book Old MacDonald had a Dragon. Check it out.

Received updated sketches for Old MacDonald had a Dragon the other day. It's looking great! I can't wait to see the final art, or the book itself, which will come out Fall 2012
