Band Directors United V - Getting back to the roots.

An extremely successful series for band teachers, Band Directors United is continuing as a full day session to address the biggest and brightest topics in band. The idea of BDU is to unite band teachers to discuss, share and solve shared challenges and create better communication between colleagues. It's working to continue as "the best PD for Band Teachers at the conference".

The day will be split into 3 panels, each featuring unique presentations by a master teacher followed by group interaction and discussion.

AM: Assessment - Meaningful and effective assessment strategies.

AM/PM: Master panel - topics include: teaching fundamentals, classroom management, overcoming performance anxiety.

PM: Best practice forum (bring your best stuff to share).
