Send us a textBryson Tarbet, founder of That Music Teacher, takes us on a captivating journey through the world of accessible music education. Drawing from his personal experience with ADHD and sensory processing disorder, Bryson reveals how his quest to make the classroom more comfortable for himself evolved into a mission to ensure music is truly accessible for all students.What begins as a conversation about simple seating arrangements quickly expands into a masterclass on creating fully inclusive music environments. Bryson shares practical approaches like offering flexible seating options, adapting instruments with occupational therapists, and color-coding sheet music to help students make visual connections between notation and instrument fingerings. His ingenious solutions range from simple rubber bands that help students grasp mallets to sophisticated one-handed recorders for students with physical disabilities.Beyond the technical aspects of accessibility, Bryson offers a profound perspective on the psychological importance of inclusive music education. He explains how introducing instruments like recorders can create a level playing field where students who typically struggle academically can shine, as everyone starts at the same point regardless of past performance. This insight challenges us to rethink how we structure music education to ensure all students have opportunities to succeed.The conversation takes an unexpected turn when Bryson reveals how COVID-19 forced him to explore alternatives to traditional performance-based music education. This led to the discovery that many seemingly disengaged students were actually deeply musical—they simply resonated with production or technology rather than performance. This revelation has powerful implications for expanding our conception of what music education can and should be.Ready to make your music classroom more inclusive?

Show Notes: Discover how an elementary school music teacher from Ohio is revolutionizing education by creating sensory and emotionally inclusive classrooms. Through his personal experiences with ADHD and sensory processing disorder, Bryson Tarbet advocates for removing barriers and empowering students to embrace their unique selves. Join us on this episode of the Water Prairie Chronicles as Bryson shares his insights and strategies for incorporating music education to help students with ADHD and SPD develop self-regulation skills that extend beyond the classroom. In Episode 61 of the Water Prairie Chronicles, Tonya Wollum interviews Bryson Tarbet, an elementary school music teacher from Columbus, Ohio, who is an advocate for creating sensory and emotionally inclusive classrooms. Bryson shares his personal experiences of being diagnosed with ADHD as a child and sensory processing disorder (SPD) in recent years. He embraces his unique way of processing the world and uses his experiences to shape his teaching methods. In the Two Truths and a Lie game, Bryson reveals three facts about himself: he has been in multiple professional operas, a deer once jumped through his classroom window, and he aspired to be a paramedic when he was younger. Listeners are invited to guess which fact is a lie by posting in the comments. The conversation then focuses on ADHD and SPD, with Bryson explaining that both are neurological disorders affecting how individuals process the world. He shares how ADHD manifests for him, often resulting in hyper-fixation and forgetfulness. In contrast, his sensory processing disorder is characterized by sound sensitivities, which can lead to overstimulation and mood changes. Bryson embraces these challenges and aims to create a classroom where students can feel comfortable being themselves without conforming to neurotypical standards. Tonya asks Bryson about the importance of creating sensory-friendly classrooms. He explains that sensory needs are fundamental and meeting those needs helps prevent disruptive behaviors and promotes safety. Bryson emphasizes the significance of removing barriers and providing opportunities for students to regulate their sensory experiences, ensuring they do not feel punished for things beyond their control. Regarding music education, Bryson highlights how it can help students with ADHD and SPD develop self-regulation skills. As someone who found solace in music, he believes it offers validation and allows hyper-fixations to be channeled into something the world values. Bryson mentions that music education teaches collaboration, teamwork, and understanding individual contributions. He appreciates the flexibility music provides for movement, allowing students to learn in ways that suit their needs. Tonya and Bryson discuss how music education extends beyond the classroom. Music helps students understand their emotions and how different music can regulate them. By fostering introspection and reflection, music education equips students with tools applicable to various aspects of their lives. Challenges associated with teaching music in a sensory-friendly manner are also addressed. The music classroom presents distractions such as instruments, bright lights, and sound triggers. Bryson shares strategies he has implemented, including fidget tools and headphones for tactile feedback and sound dampening. These accommodations are available to all students, not just those with sensory needs, to promote inclusivity. In conclusion, Bryson's interview sheds light on the importance of creating inclusive classrooms that address the sensory and emotional needs of students. He demonstrates how music education can be a powerful tool for self-regulation and empowerment, allowing students to thrive beyond the classroom.

Today on TAP, I'm chatting with Anacrusic community member Bryson Tarbet about Special Learners in the Music Classroom. This is a topic that is pertinent to all of us as music teachers, since we so often see everyone in our building, and only for a limited amount of time. Bryson has some great tips for how to accommodate all of our students to make sure they have a fulfilling and meaningful musical experience--something that you can tell he is incredibly passionate about!
