Listening (Model Lesson) - Music Lesson Plan

This music lesson plan introduces kindergarten students to the "Pink Panther Theme" song. The teacher will play excerpts of the song and lead an interactive activity where some students search for "clues" with magnifying glasses while others hide scarves. As the music changes from loud to soft, the clue hiders will pop up and wave their scarves. The goal is for students to learn about the dynamics (different levels of loud and soft) in music.

asking what they think he is looking for or if they recognize him, then zoom out to show whole
picture

1. Tell them that we are going to be detectives today and proceed to have them listen to a
clip of the song
2. Ask the students what they thought it sounded like they were doing in the song and what
they noticed about the music
3. Listen to the clip a second time. This time having the students pat their hands on their
knees to mimic tiptoeing
4. Listen to the clip a third time. This time having the students pretend to hide and then
popping up to wave their hands around when the music changes
5. Tell the students that you are going to play a game
6. Explain that those with magnifying glasses are detectives who will tiptoes around the
carpet in search of “clues” while the music is soft and must freeze in whatever spot they
are in when the music becomes loud
7. Tell the rest of the students that the scarf is a “clue” that the students must hide from the
detectives while the music is soft and that when the music becomes loud they should pop
up and wave the their scarfs in the air before hiding again
8. Divide the students into two groups
9. Remind them to keep their hands to themselves and not to run
10. 10. Have the group with scarfs find a home spot on the carpet where they will stay
for the duration of the song and have the group with magnifying glasses form a line at the
edge of the carpet
11. 11. Play the song all the way through then have the groups switch and play the
game a second time so that the students get an opportunity to be both the detective and
the clue hider

considered the dynamics of a song then define (dynamics: different levels of loud and soft in a
