There is one thing that I use in my studio that I think I cannot ever be without: removable highlighter tape! I use this for all ages of students and it is a wonderfully effective tool to draw attention to trouble spots in music. I use it in the following ways:
- Highlight missed notes, staccatos, metronome markings, practically anything.
- Ask students to place mark their own music with the tape as you discuss the trouble spots.
- Ask students to highlight assignments in their journal that they have forgotten.
Here are 2 places that you can purchase removable highlighter tape:
Highlightertapes.com (Note: The Avid Aviator owner contacted me 3/2012 to let me know he has an entire site devoted to highlighter tape now! Hence the new URL.)
Music Educators Marketplace
This is one product that I always make sure I have in stock before I begin the teaching year.
