Today’s podcast is about attention.

How do you get it, and how do you keep it?

There are many tools that we can access and use as teachers to gain our students attention, and this episode is about sharing one of them, which is totally learnable - and that is the power of humour.

Today I’ve also got a story for you about how a wonderful band director I knew engaged their band, however this episode isn’t just for band directors. This session is useful for anyone teaching ... just about anything! The lessons learned are useful in any situation.

Here at the Fun Music Company we’re committed to helping music teachers make their lessons more fun and engaging, so over the next few months we will be publishing lots of music jokes and other tools for making music lessons fun.

We are even starting a new email list very soon with a “joke of the day” for music teachers. It isn't available just yet, but will be very soon.

In the meantime, you can start with this: 10 Music Theory Jokes for every occasion.
