Diction Sub Plans- The latest product in my new series of Sub Plans for Chorus Teachers






Diction is so important for our choir singers, and if you need diction to be taught while you are absent for a day, these lessons are for you...and the good news is that you can do them with your students when you are in class with them too using this plan! It expands to as many as three days if you'd like it to do so through "enhancement" ideas that I've included to make it fun and to drive home the learning!

From tall mouths to voiced/unvoiced consonants, this 1-3 day lesson plan covers a lot.

What do you get?
*A 9-page google slide presentation with slides explaining exactly how to use the plan
*A link to a 20-page Google Doc that includes the YouTube links, video comprehension questions, answer keys and extension activity ideas like scavenger hunts and other gamification ideas to drive home the objectives of the lessons.

How can you use this lesson?
*As a one-day sub plan with a music or non-music sub.
*As a three-day lesson plan when you are with your students. You expand this lesson by choosing some or all of the extension activity ideas I've put into the Google Doc.
*If you are confident your sub can handle it, you can have them try some of the extension ideas that are included to extend this into a 2 or 3-day sub-plan.

Biggest Giveaway of Mr. D products EVER! For April 2024.

So many of you use my program, S-Cubed Sight Singing Program for Beginners, and I need your help getting the word out about this giveaway.  Please forward this to a choral colleague or post it on social media!  The only reason that people know about my program is because of teachers...just like you...and I am forever grateful!  

I remember this time of year when I was in the classroom as quite stressful.  The students (and I) had spring fever, but there was a spring show lying ahead...and standardized testing in the middle of the final preparation weeks.  

So much to do before finally getting to summer and taking time to breathe, rest and reset.

Teachers may or may not have the bandwidth to think about curriculum for next year, but in case you do....or if you know of a young teacher who is about to enter the workforce post-graduation this May...or if you know someone who is re-entering the classroom after a break...


They may just win it!

And they may also win some sub plans ...and a musical unit based on the Sound of Music!




And if they don't win it, but they enter the giveaway, they will get notified on the morning of April 28th about how to purchase the program 50% off S-Cubed, the sub plans and the musical unit any time on April 28, 29, and 30th.  I am going to be adding more sub plans and musical units into my store over the next few months for the 2024 back-to-school season, so keep an eye on my store and make sure to follow my email list.  Write "Subscribe" and send and email to inthemiddlewithmrd@gmail.com.

Go ahead...post this on social media where chorus teachers gather...send this to a colleague.  Let everyone know.
