Mr. Stern's Sinister Plan:
To perform,.. to entertain,.. to make students laugh till they cry,..
to implant musicality and creativeness into the students thinking and subconscious movement without them realizing that they are actually learning music concepts!
(And to make core teachers believe that all we do in music class is play!)
Mwa- ha-ha !
