From body percussion to instruments
Instruments · Orff · 2 comments
This past month, as my fifth graders were learning tim-ka, or dotted eighth/sixteenth, I started going through my resources to see how I might best practice this rhythm with them. It's been many years since I've taught this concept--as I've not had students long enough to get to the rhythm--so I was excited to see what I could find in my resources! I found this resource which I admit I've heard great things about but just haven't used very much! Click on the picture to see the book at West Music. If you are an Orff-trained teacher, you likely have a well-worn version on your…

Musical Activities for Black History Month

Since we are nearing the end of the first week of February, I thought I'd blog about some of my favorite musical activities for Black History Month. Most of these activities could be used any time during the year--and in any classroom--but I know, for me, Black History Month is a great reminder to make sure I delve deeper into cultural and social contexts by reading, singing, and having thoughtful discussions with students! Picture Books One of my favorite ways to celebrate Black History Month is by reading children's literature about famous African-Americans, and teaching them about mu…
