Using research-based fiction, each story is written from a music student teacher's perspective, highlighting possible (even typical) scenarios encountered during the internship. Designed to promote reflection, transferability, and a sense of "that could be me" for music student teachers. Names and stories are fictional, but topics and scenarios are derived from music education research and personal experience mentoring music student teachers. Nothing "new" to music student teachers-instead, the book serves as a tool for instructors and preservice educators to connect theories from university coursework to the school music classroom. Features 12 short stories on topics such as beginning the internship, student teacher motivation, classroom management in music, navigating student identities, the job search process, application for certification and licensure, and much more. "Debrief" section following each story, guiding the reader to consider related and tangential topics/scenarios. Individual reflective prompts for journaling, blogging, or other reflective writings. Activities for music student teaching seminar, designed to encourage pair/small group work, reflection, projection, and consider alternate "endings" to stories. Additional resource lists of supplementary texts, websites, and interview materials for music student teachers to "dive deeper" into select topics. Sample course calendar/integration of the text for both music-specific and general education seminars"--
