#mightywriters #songwriting day 4: posting this a day later because I had so many great people to hang with in real life! -YESTERDAY each composed novel lyrics to Mary had a Little Lamb and performed them to group accompaniment on guitar~ Some kids were shy, but with support from our fantastic teaching assistants everyone completed the project! We talked about the pattern of the lyrics and rhyme... We played "guess that instrument" to soundbites of a steel drum, banjo, accordion, didgeridoo, and kazoo (just to name a few). It has been a really beautiful week, and I am happy I took the time to #volunteer ^^ This morning I treated myself to a massage/Reiki session with my first Reiki instructor~ I remember when she taught me this #gandhi #quote 5 years ago! I definitely feel accomplished, practicing it this week #bethechange #mindfulness #practices #teaching #childrenarethefuture #education #selfexpression #collaboration #music #magic #tunes #creativity #writing #literacy #fun #nonprofit #volunteering (at The Reiki School + Clinic)
