Voi soittaa sekä hiirellä että näppäimistöllä, sekä melodiaa että sointuja yhtaikaa (ja tässäkin mielessä virtuaalinen, epätodellinen). Huom. toimii vakaammin IE -selaimella.

Rytmirinkula lasten musiikkikasvatukseen
Soiva metsä on ihana kirja. Se on maalattu kielellä ja sävelillä ja herkin, paikoin lystikkäinkin, kuvin. Se menee sydämeen niin montaa reittiä, että sen seurassa voi vain ihastella ja huokailla. Katri Kirkkopellon kirjoittama ja kuvittama Soiva metsä : Jean Sibeliuksen matkassa on lapsille kirjoitettu kuvitettu elämäntarina, jota on sopivasti ryyditetty säveltäjän lastenlasten muistamilla hauskoilla tapauksilla. Kieli soljuu, lauseet ovat lapsille sopivan lyhyitä, miltei runollisen kauniita. Sanoissa soi se musiikki, jonka Sibelius kuuli kaikin aistein ja jonka pappa tartutti lapsenlapseenkin: - Kuuletko, kuinka metsä tuoksuu! pappa huudahtaa. Tuuli humisee ja puut laulavat,kun juoksen pitkin metsäpolkua. Metsä soi! Vihreä laulaa!Kukat kuiskivat! hihkun iloisena. Katri Kirkkopellon kuvat ovat ilmeikkäitä ja viehättäviä, niissä elää Ainolan kodin tunnelma sadan vuoden takaa ja mummin puutarhan lumous. Tästä luonnon keskellä olevasta vihreästä maailmasta kumpusivat monet säveltäjän teoksista ja siellä oli lastenkin hauska leikkiä. Kokonaisuuden täydentää kirjan mukana tuleva CD, jolla Nazig Azezian (piano) ja Jussi Makkonen (sello) soittavat kuusi Sibeliuksen sävellystä. Osa niistä on päässyt mukaan kirjan tekstiinkin tai kuviin vaikkapa radiosta kuunneltuna lauluna. Tunnetuimmat CD:n teoksista ovat Valse triste ja Finlandia, mutta viehätyin kovasti myös Granen (Kuusi) ja Souvenir -sävellyksistä. Kirjan lopussa on lyhyt Jean Sibeliuksen elämäkerta. Tiedollista ainesta täydentää pieni sanasto, jossa selitetään lyhyesti ja nuoremmille lukijoille ymmärrettävästi muutama musiikkiin liittyvä sana kuten "sävellaji" ja "sinfonia". Kirja on kerrassaan hieno ja tutustumisen arvoinen. Lapset voivat lukea sitä itse, mutta se taipuu myös ääneen lukemiseen pienemmille vaikka pienissä osissa. Kuvasivut ovat isot, moniella tekstiä on vähän. Isommille kirjassa on sopivasti tietoa ja historiaa säveltäjästä. Aikuinenkin lukee, katselee ja kuuntelee tämän mielellään. Ulkomaalaisten ystävien iloksi tämä on julkaistu myös ruotsiksi ja englanniksi. Suosittelen! Katri Kirkkopelto: Soiva metsä : Jean Sibeliuksen matkassa. 36 s. Kustantaja: Lasten keskus 2015. Sisältää CD:n, jolla Sibeliuksen musiikkia soittavat Nazig Azezian (piano) ja Jussi Makkonen (sello). Nyt vietetään Kirjan vuoden Lasten- ja nuorten- kirjallisuuden viikkoa. KIRJAN lainasin naapurikunnan kirjastosta. MUUALLA tähän ovat ihastuneet Leena Lumi, Maria/Sinisen linnan kirjasto, Tuijata. Kulttuuripohdintoja, Pälvi Ahoinpelto/Valomerkki HAASTE: Osallistun Elämäkertahaasteeseen tällä kuvitetulla Sibeliuksen elämäkerralla lapsille.
I love games and so do my kiddos! During the month of June, I included this fun game in our primary centre rotation. BUSTED! What you need: A container of some sort. I used empty Lysol wipe containers. Coloured tongue dipressers. I got mine from Michaels. A thin permanent marker that you will write rhythms with. Don't forget to include some BUSTED sticks! I did 1/5 eighth notes, 1/5 quarter notes, 1/5 quarter rests, 1/5 half notes, and 1/5 Busted!. I made a nifty label! For the upper elementary ones that I will do next year, I think I'll make a vertical label... Put all of the sticks inside the container, with the rhythm side of each stick at the bottom. And voila! Your game is ready to be played! Click HERE for the game instructions and HERE the FREE printable label!
Earlier in the year, I used a caterpillar rhythm activity with my older student to help review basic rhythms. I still use the ones I've cre...
A new highly interactive early literacy storytime featuring instrument exploration, songs, fingerplays, dance and books for ages 3 and up. Created by Community Librarians Sheila Grier and Chandra vanEijinsbergen, Music, Movement, and Stories (MnMS for short) is one of my favorite new children’s programs for ages 3-5 at Deschutes Public Library. The music cd’s, books, and musical instruments circulate between all six branches. The program includes two stories and lots of dancing, singing and playing musical instruments. I joined Sheila and Chandra in our Early Learning Space at the Downtown Bend Library and we made some noise! We talked about the most asked about questions and shared favorite books and ideas. How did MnMS start? “Music Movement and Stories started when I began to read about doing a music program at our library and wondered why most music programs at libraries do not include the great books we have about...

UPDATE: Hello everyone! I have been at a new school with nearly 3x the students! Eek! Interactive notebooks haven't been feasible here, so I haven't been keeping up with them. I do have some of the things I've use available for free (see the links below) and I'm working on uploading more! https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Music-Interactive-Notebook-Pages-Rhythms-475383 https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Music-Interactive-Notebook-Pages-Dynamics-Tempos-Articulations-424104 Several of my wonderful readers have asked/emailed about how I use interactive notebooks in the music room. Hopefully this post can help you, in case you decide to use them in your own classroom. Let me caution you - This is only my 2nd year using them. I decided to "give it one more go" before I pass judgement on the idea as a whole. Last year, I used them often in the first semester, but they somewhat "fizzled" out in the second - I even decided to keep my 5th graders notebooks and recycle them for third this year. Pros - I like the idea of having a place for students to log what they've learned, reflect on what they've heard, and post assignments and compositions, not to mention something they can take with them when they go on to middle school. The students have been positive about using the notebooks and seem to enjoy them. Cons - I do not like the 1) time it takes to use the notebooks and, honestly, the 2) time it takes for me to create things to go inside the notebooks (Have you seen your average 3rd grader make a foldable? Eeek), 3) the cost (or acquisition) of materials (makers, pens, glue, paper, and the notebooks themselves). Some basics: * I only use notebooks with grades 3-5. You might just pick one or two grades to "try it out". * Find a convenient place to store them and an efficient way to pass them out/clean them up. I store them on a bookshelf by homeroom teacher. On the cover, I've written the student's name, grade, and teacher in permanent marker. I color-code (using a marker dot or sticker) each journal based on where the student sits (if they sit on the red risers, they have a red dot, etc). Journals can be passed out quickly during our normal greeting/warm-up routine. * Create a sense of "ownership" for the students - praise their good work, allow them to share with others, ask to use theirs as "model" for other classes/grades, put a cute sticker on a particularly worthy assignment * Create meaningful assignments that are aligned with your curriculum. For me, this is why so much of my notebook is a "work in progress". I've had to "grow" my curriculum with my students. This is my 3rd year with them, and it is the first year that I've though, "Whew, they are pretty much on-pace with where they should be." * Keep it simple - If I can use the large paper-cutter to crop a worksheet, rather than hand 25 scissors to 3rd graders, I'll do myself, thanks. If it will take me twenty minutes to fold 20 foldables when it would take a 4th grader 20 minutes to fold 1, I'll do it. If I can glue in a page and spare 30 glue-bottles from the fingers of 30 5th graders, I'll do that too. See what I mean about cons (taking a lot of your time)? * If you want to have an organized notebook (a section for rhythm, a section for melodies, etc), you'll need to plan out nearly all the components ahead of time. I do a basic "notebook" planning page per nine weeks, where I list things I want to create or have the students create to put in their notebooks. Then, I simply have the students enter in notes and assignments as we complete them. Many teachers have their student's notebooks number by page (i.e. pages 20-35 are rhythmic pages), but those teachers are usually teaching only one classroom of students, not multiple classes and grade levels. Anyway, here are a few pages from my current 3rd grade "model" notebook. We'll begin working in our notebooks next week (fingers crossed). Here's the title-page for our notebooks. I let the students decorate it themselves, as long as what they draw is music-related. I set a time limit of 10 minutes for this activity and I usually multi-task by playing a song we're learning or will learn, or have learned, or will listen to, etc, while they complete this task. This sheet includes the musical vocabulary the students will learn over the first nine-weeks. Words highlighted in yellow are words the students are learning/have learned. At the end of the first nine weeks, the students put a green dot next to words they are sure they know, and a red dot next to words they are unsure of this. This gives me the opportunity to see what we need to revisit or relearn. Vocabulary words are posted on the word wall and on the "vocabulary wall" which is a large pocket chart (I forgot to take a picture of this but I will post it soon - it is very effective). This little page is quite interactive. The students illustrate each vocabulary word. We use these words ALL the time (they are also on the word wall and currently on the vocabulary wall as we are reviewing them). Here are some rhythm pages for 3rd grade. In addition to basic rhythms (whole note/rest, half note/rest, quarter note/rest, eighth notes and sixteenth notes), my 3rd graders also learn the dotted half note, tika-ti (2 sixteenths, one eighth), and ti-tika (1 eighth, 2 sixteenths). I usually also touch on syn-co-pa (eighth quarter eighth) and tam-ti (dotted quarter eighth) because these rhythms are common in some of the recorder and choral music we do. One Beat Rhythms Two Beat Rhythms Four Beat Rhythms I'll also be including some rhythm practice pages and a few rhythm composition activities that the students will glue in. Here are a few melodic-based pages. Melodic Shape Activity Melodic Vocabulary with Illustrations Do Re Mi Song Activity Treble Clef - corresponds to boomwhacker colors Music Street I like the music street printable. Students fill in the solfa as we learn them. Some students can use the floor staff, while others track the movement in their notebooks (as we discuss steps, skips, and leaps). I also plan to include some sight-reading practice pages (more soon). Students can also log listening experiences. I like to include these basic vocabulary pages so students can refer to them. And short assignments, like the ones described in 3rd Grade Listening Recommendations , can also be logged here. Listening Recommendations Exploration Report Two years ago, I had a moderate obsession with foldables. I'm currently "researching" (and by that, I mean browsing Pinterest) to see which foldables to incorporate in the interactive notebook. Love this book! Orchestral Instruments Foldable Pentatonic Page from previous notebooks Recorder Fingerings Foldable Rhythm Value Look Book - I'll probably use this again See what I mean? Obsessed. This year, I've already created one new foldable: I love it because it was so simple to create (just print, cut out the square for the students). I'm thinking we could use a few of these as we study composers. That's about all I have for right now. I'll update soon!
