So, yesterday (Friday) I was assigned to sub as a music teacher for [View all]

grades K to 4. OK, I could handle it. I used the Promethean Board with Youtube vids and the kids liked it enough.

It was my last class at 2:02, and on a Friday. And this particular Promethean board had no audio. What to do?

I know kids. This was a third grade class, just waiting to be dismissed in 40 minutes.

So, instead of music, I put on "adventure" videos. And they went crazy!

Ziplining in Costa Rica. Wind-surfing. Barnstorming. Skydiving. Hot air balloons. Etc. Etc.

Time went quickly and I was a hero.

Ta-daa.
