    Active Listening Activities

    Active Listening is embedded in the ways that we teach in the elementary music classroom. Today on Teaching Music Tomorrow, Anne & Victoria are discussing specific active listening lessons to keep your students engaged and making music. Victoria shares a listening activity perfect for a “one off” lesson, the end of class, or to introduce movement vocabulary:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4WPCBieSESI  Movement sequence:  0:00 - With feet planted in place, improvise movements to follow the melodic contour of the trumpet  0:14 - Sway slowly in place  (can you sway your feet? Your head? Can you sway forward and back? Side to side?  0:54 - Tiptoe in open space to the rhythm of the percussion 1:26 - standing in place, move right arm when the clarinet plays. Move left arm when Louis sings the response  2:01 - Move in open space, wiggling fingers in the air as the piano plays 2:34 - Spin during the trumpet’s long note, then slowly sit down  2:57 - Lay still on the ground and listen to the rest of the piece  Anne shares a way to introduce the song Carnavalito, before you teach the broken circle dance. Students will listen for rhythm, steady beat, and ostinato, throughout the clear sectional form of the piece. Check out the recording by Shenanigans here: https://youtu.be/XeVkU5rh6Hk?si=dGzwl7reN1w2TbbB Look for an example of the broken circle dance by Rob Amchin here: https://youtu.be/xPKBHAl2uwY?si=Sool6SJJs0SL1AqO (this example uses different music, but the moves are the same: marching for the A section and skipping for the B section).

    Moving in Open Space

    We’re back for another season of Teaching Music Tomorrow! Today, Anne and Victoria are talking all about open space, and how to scaffold the opportunity to move independently in the elementary music classroom. Anne shares how she begins in self-space with the song Allie Galloo, and how she scaffolds allowing kindergarten students to move to a new “spot” to explore non locomotor movement in new locations and shared space. She also shares how she sequences Mouse Mousie for students to be successful moving in open space. Victoria shares how she uses Ickle Ockle as an opportunity for students to not only practice musical concepts and skills, but also practice movement skills. She discusses ways for students to visualize “swimming” through open space to stay safe. Like this episode?

    Kindergarten Music Series: Closing Activities

    Closing Activities are an important part of routine for both students and teachers in Kindergarten music. We want to leave students with a positive, music making experience as they leave the music room. Included in these closing activities are often opportunities for reviewing the learning objectives for the day, as well as the actual nuts and bolts of managing students through the transition of leaving the music room and rejoining their teacher. You as the teacher can decide whether the students need something higher or lower energy at the end of class to make that transition successful. In this episode of Teaching Music Tomorrow, Anne shares the book, "The Old Black Fly" and Victoria shares the game "Zapatitos Blancos."
