These plans are not intended to read as a script, as everyone will have their own teaching style. More, I hope that they will provide you with in-depth guidance for a number of related activities that I have found in my years of teaching to be particularly effective and engaging combinations.

The Clocks & Mice lesson is also available as part of our seasonal bundle of lesson plans for the Autumn/Fall term   12 weeks of music lessons in suggested weekly order to help save time and keep things simple at the discounted price of $49

 

I have purchased every lesson you have available and LOVE them all!! I lead music classes for toddlers and preschoolers and I love how each of your lessons builds on each other. They are easy to adapt for the different ages. The parents of my students love that their kids are learning early music education while having a blast and that the kids go home and sing and stomp out rhythms. I would highly recommend your plans to everyone. And I look forward to seeing the other lessons.

I purchased “Clocks and Mice” to teach to my 3-5 year old preschool class. They loved the songs, games and playing the chime bars so much that I stretched this lesson over three weeks! (The music class is once a week.) Now we are transitioning to “Cat’s and Kittens” which is a perfect compliment to “Clocks and Mice.” They are learning so much through play and music with these two lessons.
I find these lesson plans perfect for preschoolers and easy for me to follow. I will never teach a music class without one! Thank you for providing such a wonderful resource.

    It was such a relief to come across your site! This will be my first full year teaching a music class so being able to just order the lesson plan ( and at such an affordable price) saves me so much time. I love love love the clocks and mice lesson and will purchasing a new lesson for each week I teach!

    I downloaded the clocks and mice lesson plan and LOVED it. I’d like to start a music program in my classroom based on your lessons. Is there a way to purchase more than one lesson at a time from you? I’d love to buy 30-40 lessons from you to fill up an entire school year if I could!
