Savannah, one of my choral students who really loves to sing, recorded this commercial jingle in GarageBand when she was in 6th Grade:

Please take a moment to visit the ELCO Middle School Music Website. It includes information that may be useful in your classes. If you go to the Classroom Music Page and visit the "Grade Level Pages" you will find Musical Instrument of the World activities with YouTube links. Worksheets (pdf) are available for you as well. Social Studies teachers as well as your Music Educators may be interested in this. Feel free to use any of this in your classes. It was good practice for website development using Dreamweaver.

GarageBand File sample of Commercial Project used in presentation (will only open if you have a Mac with current GarageBand). I am not sure if this will open since it deals with multitracked audio files and video. I have done some recording session work with songwriters from Nashville and have done bass tracks for them here in PA, saved the track as an mp3 file, sent it back to them in Nashville, and then the artists plug it right into the song's GarageBand file.
