Manage episode 223165670 series 2452952
The conversation today is with my good friend Matthew Potter who teaches middle school band in Chaska, MN. Matt has a lot of great insight for how to lead a band program at the middle school level. In our conversation today we get into the details of how Matt structures his lesson program and co-curricular offerings. In addition Matt talks about what it's like to teach at a middle school in a large school district and the ways he and his colleagues bridge music students together between buildings. There is a lot that we cover so I hope that if any of this interests you, that you will tune in!
