Teach the arts, change the world
Get elementary music teacher resources from PBS Kids celebrity SteveSongs!
You know that when you teach music, you change the world.
You're an elementary music teacher, and you walk into class with high hopes. Then you realize you have no curriculum and no budget. Or you're an elementary classroom teacher. You believe that music should be a core subject, but there is no music teacher in your school. You’re expected to teach music even though you have no training. But it doesn't have to be like that...
Hey, I’m Joanna
Lover of travel and diverse cultures, bilingual undercover gringa, healthy diabetic, athlete, faith led, instructional designer, non-traditional teacher, married to a Dominican songwriter/singer and Spanish teacher, mama of the two most amazing kids in the world, nonprofit entrepreneur, and founder of the #WorldUpsideDown teacher movement.
Some teachers travel a straight path. Mine is a windy one. Our journeys may vary, but I think we have something in common. I think we agree that when we teach music, we change the world. And we're not the only ones. So I'm building a community for teachers on a mission to change the world for good. In fact, we're creating the #WorldUpsideDown teacher movement. Would you like to join?

PBS Kids Celebrity SteveSongs Creates Elementary Music Teacher Resources
Steve Roslonek aka PBS Kids celebrity SteveSongs has been writing and performing his award-winning music for kids and families for the past twenty years. But you have to see Steve in action to feel the magic. He blends participatory songs, clever stories, and great melodies to create what the Boston Globe called “not just a musical journey but an entertaining, interactive and educational one.”
In May 2008, Steve took on the exciting new role of “Mr. Steve,” co-host of the PBS KIDS preschool destination that features the popular shows Curious George, Clifford the Big Red Dog, Super Why, The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That and Peg + Cat. Steve performs original interactive songs that reinforce the day’s curriculum theme. He continues to tour the country performing at kids shows, teacher conferences, and libraries. Above all, Steve’s a great mentor for teachers and students alike!
In 2020, Steve partnered with World Upside Down to help elementary teachers integrate music into the classroom! So sign up for your free membership to get some of his magical resources!
