When it was time to go on paternity leave for my first born, I decided to make video lessons so that my elementary students could continue working on the xylophone skills that I value while I'm gone. The goal for this project is to keep an over populated music classroom engaged for 50 minutes. Even though the videos are between 10 and 15 minutes, replay value is created by switching instruments, adding non-pitched percussion and competition.
