25 Days of Classrooms: Traveling Musician

This month I am sharing stories from

classrooms in Berwyn South District 100.

Day 11: Traveling Musician with Doug Henager (PE at Piper and Irving)

     This post cheats a little bit.  For all the previous posts, I have actually been in the classrooms I blogged about.  This one, however, is an exception.  The teacher, Doug Henager, has been on the move.  The only way I have caught him is on Twitter. He travels between two schools to teach PE, and lately he hasn't been staying in his gym.

     Doug is a PE teacher, but he also plays the guitar!  He has been spotted bringing his guitar into classrooms to share his talents with students.

This was his first musical sighting, in Ms. Smetko's room in November!

He was already a celebrity in the preschool world but Mr. H just took it up a notch by taking the time to learn one of our favorite Jim Gill songs! #irvingpride #sillydancecontest Thanks @Piper_PE pic.twitter.com/hDtlU0JRv0

Here is one of him in his own gym at Irving.

Pretty soon Mr. Henager will be performing on a stadium tour #fitness #fitnessmotivation #Health #physed #irvingpride #d100pride #music pic.twitter.com/VnTPnJJsLO

Keep your eyes on Twitter for more performances by Mr. Henager!  Thanks for bringing what you love to not only your classroom, but other teachers' classrooms as well.  If you want to see great videos of his PE class in action, follow him on Twitter!  He's @Piper_PE.
