Questions for discussion:

1. What has been your experiences in composing music? Do you have specific guidelines or have students create music, then give direction.

2. How are you reaching gifted and talented musicians within your class?

3. Should music be a “stand-alone” art or should we always have music and art tied together to create multi-media projects?
