Musical genres preschool

Your Name is a Song by Jamilah Thompkins-Bigelow and Luisa Uribe is a celebration that reminds us of the beauty, history, and magic behind names. I want to share a few name activities you can pair with this book. These would be perfect for Back to School activities, but they can be used any time of year.

We recently paid a visit to Austria during Project Around the World, and I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed the time. We did something a little different this time. We didn't pull our inspiration

So we’ve decided what we want to teach . We’ve chosen our musical materials . Now it’s time to plug it all in. Today I’m sharing how I’ve planned the first month of Kindergarten.

Take a Virtual Field Trip to the Symphony! Lesson plans and learning about instruments will be a breeze with these FREE ThingLink performances including the most common Instruments of the Orchestra and Band. Music videos include String, Woodwind, Brass, Percussion, & Keyboard families performing in various genres. Student learning is FUN with these NO-PREP teacher resources. Activities make GREAT MUSIC SUB PLANS & center ideas too. Click to see the post for more ideas #musiced #elementar

Easy way to share classical music with toddlers

Using re usable dry erase adhesive boards (wal mart - $3.49 for 3), Ive made personalized iPods for all three grades that I teach and one for me. After giving my initial music assessments and survey, I will list each classes favorite genres. The iPods will be used throughout the year in my classroom to post genres and songs we are studying. I found the center poster last week at Five Below :)
