This podcast contains excerpts from a 3rd grade class lesson. In the lesson, I start with a poem, the have the students help create ostinati by using word chains. They practice the rhythms using body percussion and then move the body percussion to actual non-pitched percussion instruments. The next lesson, not included in this broadcast, would be to move the poem to pitched instruments as a melody. From there you can build a form and add other speech and movement.
