171- Diversity in Music Education with Nate Holder

The Elementary Music Teacher Podcast: Music Education

Diversity in music education is so important. Making your classroom equitable starts with you first... understanding who you are, what your knowledge is, and where the holes are.

In this conversation with Nate Holder, we discuss:

• why it's important to learn and to keep relearning
• the importance of helping students to see themselves in your music classroom
• including music from your students culture in your classroom
• and much more
