Assignment 1:

Read John Finney's article From Resentment to Enchantment: What a Class of Thirteen Year Olds and Their Music Teacher Tell Us about Music Education.

• What do you think about the school having an "Expressive Arts Department," rather than the traditional separation here in the US of fine arts and performing arts?
  
• In general, what makes a "good" music classroom experience?
