It’s all built in.     Here are a few ways I’ve been using MadLips in my school setting: Tell me what you think!!   I’ve just been having fun trying out the MadLips app… nothing too serious or official yet… I”m just dreaming of all the fun ways I can use this app to introduce a lesson, make an announcement, or just have fun.  I’ve linked these short YouTube videos to QR codes and posted them on the Music Memory wall. My students can scan the QR codes for the composer introduction and also the musical work we are exploring. Who could ever forget a talking composer…. especially if they are a bit off the wall! I don’t mind if you/ they laugh at me.. sometimes we have to live on the wild side and forget our pride and just go for it!! Yippee!
