If we are playing a rousing game of ¡Cucharas! or walking around doing task cards, stations like Pop Latino and Shakira radio are always up-beat and a hit. If I want students to settle down and focus on a writing assignment, I play a station like Baladas or Canciones Románticos. Which one I use depends on the activity and what mood I am trying to set.

Christian music on pandora how to#
Wondering how to play Pandora in your classroom? I use this Bose bluetooth speaker (not an affiliate link) and my iPhone to play music since most districts frown upon streaming music on school computers. There are many different styles of instrumental Christian music, but all of them are designed to create a calm and reflective atmosphere that will help listeners to focus on their faith. Students are always fascinated by what is popular in music from country to country.

Playing music is a wonderful gateway to discussions on pop culture, as well. offers three levels of membership: Free, Unlimited (4.99/mo) and Premium (9.99/mo). Working on a Cuba unit? Play Cuban music that week! Kids working on biographies of famous Latinos? Introduce them to influential musicians with a station like Salsa Radio or Buena Vista Social Club. I don’t think I have ever met a high student that didn’t like music and it provides the perfect backdrop to quiet work time or a lively game. Music complements a foreign language class perfectly because it exposes students to the language and culture in a fun and engaging way. The ads in Spanish are a bonus for language development, too! Few things warm my Spanish teaching heart more than catching a student singing along to a song in Spanish. I love using Pandora because it both introduces students to new songs regularly AND also plays those favorites we’ve given a thumbs-up to often. Even those students that rolled their eyes at the beginning of the semester about having to listen to music in Spanish look around and ask me to turn it on. It is eerily quiet and I honestly feel slightly uncomfortable. That is how I feel when there is no music playing in my classroom.
