Just wanted to give a short update on my action research so far. The music/ writing prompts have been going perfectly so far. The only hiccup was the first day I tried implementing music. For some reason the speakers just didn't want to play. But eventually everything got under way. I'm really enjoying this research so far, and I'm learning a lot about how teachers can use music in the classroom. I've also thought of a few other ideas I'd like to test out involving music. I also think the students have been enjoying the music. Although they complain that it isn't modern enough when I start it, they work quietly the entire time they write. Their surveys also show that many do indeed believe they work better with the music.
I'll keep posting here (not even sure if anyone can read this) to keep others updated, including myself. Hopefully once I begin closely analyzing my data, I can find even more surprises evolving from this research.
