Winding it Back

Winding It Back provides a curriculum framework and practical suggestions for inclusive classrooms. The book's framework is centered on these core principles:

1. Honoring individual learning needs of all students
2. Providing multiple access points and learning levels
3. Providing adequate learning conditions for all students within the music classroom

Musical examples, lesson ideas, videos, sequencing ideas, and assessment tools are provided. The techniques have been tested and work with students in the music classroom and rehearsal.

Included is access to a companion website that has supplemental material for each chapter, video demonstrations, and all the songs referenced in the book.

Contributors include Alice Hammel, Ryan Hourigan, Herbert  Marshall, Joy Anderson, Heather Russell, Roberta  Hickox, Taylor Walkup, Jill Reese, Evan Bruno, Susan Harvey, and David Stringham.
