The Elementary Music Teacher Podcast: Music Education 249: Designing a Curriculum that Works for You with Katie Jenks
In this episode, we chat with Katie Jenks not just about the Curriculum Design Roadmap course but also about the real struggles that we music teachers face everyday. We dive deep into the overwhelm that comes with having too little or too many resources in our hands, not knowing where to start with building a curriculum that is cohesive and makes sense for our students, and grasping at straws when it comes to writing daily and weekly lesson plans that are aligned to our long-term goals in music education.
These problems seem universal for music educators out there, and we talk about how the Curriculum Design Roadmap course provides solutions that will not seem like another overwhelming checklist we have to tick off one by one. Katie also shares her experience in going through the course — the clarity that comes with knowing when and how to use the resources available to her, the confidence in knowing that her curriculum building is headed into the right direction, and the feeling that this is a community rather than a one-time course that she has to finish.
