Hi Lisa

The Manginot and The Complete Shireinu (both published by 
Trnascontinental www.eTranscon.com) are a must for any RS music 
teacher, old or new. Both have melody line, chords and translations 
where they're needed. They have a variety of songs for every holiday, 
and are well indexed so you can find anything easily. I've taken mine 
apart and put them into 3 ring binders, as I use them so much they 
were coming apart!

Do you learn new music by ear or do you read music? And are you 
teaching K-7 all at one time (we do!) or are they separated out by age 
or interest? 

Good luck in your new position. I've been teaching RS music for 
several years now, and our program is very successful. I'll be happy 
to share anything you need!

B'Shalom
