Taming the Anthill is a collection of games, contests, discipline techniques (oops - classroom management skills), and practical suggestions for introducing fundamental skills of singing, listening, music reading, composing and keyboard. Oh yes, there are a few alka-helpers thrown in to help preserve your mental heath. Some of the ideas in this book were developed from seeds planted by teachers older and wiser than I. Other strategies have evolved in my classroom through trial and error, tears and love. You may possess the newest piano in your district or the state's finest stereo system, but until you create an environment in which the kids become your allies in the battle of musical wills, no plan of instruction can truly flourish. You've got to tame the anthill.
