Thanks again for the great assembly. Babcock was thrilled!
Students were excited! The teachers were enthusiastic. I heard,
'that was the best assembly I've ever been to' and, 'my students
learned more in that one assembly than they learned all year in
science!'

“Phil’s multisensory approach to the skill of reading easily tapped into the
children’s natural sense of rhythm and rhyme, giving them a view of reading that
immediately made sense. It was fantastic!”

and an insightful educator. His presentations cover all of the standards
while they teach kids how to have fun with music. His programs crossover into other areas in
the curriculum, and are as engaging as they are educational. Any time spent with
Phil's Music Through the Curriculum series is time well spent."
