More student quotables

A new cycle of general music classes started this week. To have the kids (and me) find out about their musical opinions and tastes, I have them do "musical conversations." I give them each a card with a question on it and they have to find the answer to it from several other people in class. These questions range from "What's your favorite radio station?" to "What kind of technology do you think will replace the iPod?"

One of the questions was "Do you play an instrument? If you don't, what would you like to learn to play?" One of the students' responses came from a classmate whom I knew had band lessons on Wednesdays, saxophone day. So what was written on the paper?

"He plays the tender sexaphone."

tee hee.

Also, if you want to do something tomorrow evening, give me a call. I'm going to my brother's house early in the evening as his wife is going to cook me dinner, but if I don't take off for State College tomorrow night, I'm game for some last-minute fun before I set off!
