TEACHING A SONG: • Practice the song and know it by heart • Being enthusiastic is more important than having a good voice. Animated and smile. • Catch their interest with a picture, object, or story. Relate it to life in a story. • Sing it from beginning to end. Allow them to participate with you while the listen. • Give the children something to listen for. • They can clap along while you sing it a second time • Use musical instruments, pictures, props, costumes, or gestures to remind children of words. • Teach the part that is repeated most often first and then teach other sections of the song. I’m a little teapot short and stout, Here is my handle and here is my spout. When I get all steamed up, hear me shout. Tip me over and pour me out.
Other MUSIC ideas to not Frog”get: • Act out the song – Pretend to be or do what the music says (Horses, Rabbits, etc.) • Guessing games • (Play Name That Tune – guess the sing with first 3-5 notes) • Let them choose the songs to sing • Vary the way you sing, listen to, and move • Sing 5 speckled Frogs in an opera voice, with a country twang, fast, like an old person without teeth, ….. • PIGGY BACK Song - Change the words to a song. • Instead of 5 frog’s – turtles or pigs etc. • Same tune different topic and words • (Sing:Twinkle Twinkle and ABC at the same time)
THE REBELLIOUS SINGER • What about a child who won’t sing or participate? • Don’t pressure • They usually know the songs and sing them at home. • Let them help with the props • Let them choose the song to sing • Have a teacher sit with them and sing • Say, “What is something teacher doesn’t like to do alone – sing. Will you help me?”
Assignments • Paper-Plate Tambourine! • Fold a paper plate in half. You can decorate it any way you choose but you need to have your names on the instrument. Punch the holes around the plate about 1” apart and lace together with yarn OR use stapler. When one small opening is left, fill with a small about of beans to make it shake! Finish closing your Tambourine! • Child Development Song Evaluations (7) • Music Lesson plan (with 2 activities) & Examples of those activities • Music Signs Option
