Milestone
Today (February 19th, 2022) marks a posting anniversary, I’ve been blogging for 500 days, starting with the first post How to Color Code Music Notes for LD & Special Needs Distance Learning. In that time, I’ve started six blog categories that contain detailed posts on various musical topics.
It has been my goal to write fun and informative posts with lots of colorful examples, soundtracks, and videos. If you’ve liked what you’ve seen so far, please come again.
Thanks for reading,
