Need Some Music? I Can Help With That

It's no secret I am dearly missing my Smartboard. One of the things I am missing the most is using the Classroom Timer. I loved students got a visual to see how much time was left and I could spice things up with changing the songs- upbeat to chill. It had it all.My old beloved timer from ClassTools

This year it is just my iPad and I. My old timer is not iPad friendly. This fact has left me  struggling to figure out how to add this tool back in, but I finally think I got it. If possible I might like it even more. I created my own playlist on YouTube! This way I can pull it right up on my iPad and BAM! I got what I need. I made the playlist public so I could share it with all of you. Just click on the picture and you can enjoy.

Currently there are 25 songs and quite the eclectic collection. There are a mix of tunes for clean up, turn and talk, attention getters, down time. Best part there are no ads for any of this videos & if you are lucky enough to show your students the videos too all the videos are school appropriate! As of now there is:

 TV show themes

Jeopardy

Price Is Right Theme & Losing Horn Sound

Magic School Bus

Sportscenter Theme

NBC Chimes

Spongebob 

Andy Griffith

Looney Tunes

Friends theme (instrumental) but feel free to do the claps...I know I will

Movie Soundtracks (I used these a lot with my old timer & loved them)

Pink Panther

Mission Impossible

Peanuts Themes

James Bond Theme

Ghostbuster

Friday Night Lights Theme

Home Alone

Ocean's Eleven

Batman

Some favorite songs:

Clair de Lune

Beethoven's Fur Elise

AC/DC's Thunderstruck (I only use the intro)

Green Onions

and my personal favorite this video is from one of my favorite local musician, Andre Villoch who wrote & shared this song when he was substitute teaching in 2nd grade (such a funny song) would be great for visualization

Do you have any favorite songs I should add? I would love to hear!
