Description
Kids love marching to music, and this Soldiers lesson plan gives them plenty of opportunity for some lively movement with lots of learning too. It’s a great lesson to practice contrasting pitches and tempos tapping rhythms and banging drums. This lesson plan is suitable for children from 2 – 6 years and is 11 pages long, including 6 printables.
The Soldiers digital lesson plan focuses on the following activities:
- Chime bars practice with resonator bells – Do-Re-Mi
- Tapping rhythms, recognising notation, and contrasting dynamics
- Playing a variety of percussion instruments, listening skills, recognising steady beat and the rhythm.
- Singing together, actions and motor skills
- Counting practice and building confidence
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 Soldiers 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.
