There are so many different places you can start from when creating a Curriculum Outline. A curriculum outline is a broad overview of your entire program, across all grade levels. It’s a zoomed out picture of what concepts you want to cover, and what grades will cover them. I’ve written about a c
Today I'm giving a glance into my first day of school lesson plans, from TK - 5th grade. In the first day of music class, students are arguably the most attentive they will be all year. This puts a unique pressure on the first day's lesson plan to set the tone for the rest of our time together.
The first time I taught a group of kindergartens I was pretty excited. This age is so fun! But as the group walked in I realized the HUGE struggle it is to get Kindergarteners to do anything on their first day of school. It's the most adorable little struggle to get them to sit on the rug

For many families, piano lessons are the first musical activity a child pursues. Often these lessons start at a very young age - 6 or 7 years old. With my piano students one of the first questions I ask in the very first lesson is "Why do you want to take piano lessons?" A variation of the

Virtual Sheet Music® Premium High-Quality digital sheet music for viola, bWV 1007-1012, revised edition March 2019. High-quality, speedy download. Good service! Nice basically clean edition bowings for Bach works will always be up to the performer's discretion, it would be impossible to satisfy every musical aesthetic in any single edition. Really appreciate digital downloads! And the mp3 are valuable to assist with keeping the rhythm honest while learning...before adding one's own personal "breathing" spots to make it musical. I was looking for some music for my nephew,a viola pupil 8 years old and I started with these pieces as a gift for her future years (I hope).I was very satisfied of the quality of both the sheet music and the audio files and I subscribed a membership. I was looking for this piece from when I played as a child, its exactly as I remembered it, for a great price too. Very pretty selection.

Tell your children that you are having your own Primary Singing time Olympics!!! Write these events on different pieces of paper and tape them onto the chalkboard. Call on a child to come up and choose an event! Here are the events for our review: High Jump, Shot Put, Volleyball, Javelin, Archery, Discus, High Dive, Pass the Torch and Olympic Ring Toss. High Jump - Put song titles on small squares of paper and stack them high on the wall (blue sticky tape). Have a child jump as high as they can and grab the song!!! Shot Put - Put numbers representing songs (or song titles) in the bottom of a muffin tin. Let a child stand from a line and see if they can toss a cotton ball (ahem... I mean, shot put) into one!!! Volley Ball - Choose a song that needs reviewing and while you sing, see if your children can keep the balloon in the air. Let them toss it around to each other (they MUST stay in their seat!). Javelin - Straw = javelin :) Put down some tape lines on the floor and write different ways to sing on them. Let the child who chose "Javelin" from the blackboard throw the straw (javelin). Which ever line is below the straw, is the way to sing. Choose a song that needs reviewing or a fun song! Discus - This is the same thing as the javelin but with a paper plate "discus"!!! Have fun! Archery - For this event you will need paper plates, string to hang them, tape, and rubber bands. The child will get 3 chances to shoot a rubber band and hit a paper plate target. On each target is an action to do while you sing. Here are some examples: Swimming - move arms like swimming forward Running - Run in place Rowing - row like your in a kayak Jumping - jump up and down Kicking - kick your foot like you are kicking a soccer ball Tae Kwan Do - move arms like karate moves (facial expressions are optional :)) High Diving - Let a child stand from a chair and try to drop a clothes pin into a bottle. Number each clothes pin and the one that goes in the bottle is the song to sing! Pass the Torch - Choose a song that needs reviewing and let the children pass the Olympic Torch around as you sing. Make sure every child gets a chance to touch it! You could have the pianist stop at random and the child holding the torch must say the next phrase to the song...then, continue on. This torch was made from a paper towel tube and tissue paper. ***(The Olympic Flame is lighted by the Olympic torch during the opening ceremonies. The flame is a symbol of peace. Thousands of relay runners from many countries carry it to the stadium of the city hosting the games. The flame is passed by hand from one runner to the next.) Olympic Ring Toss - Set out pop bottles and on each have a song to sing. Hand the child the colored rings and let them try to make a ring around one of them. The one they get is the song you sing!!! If you want to make your own, here is a picture of a simple ring toss to make. It's made from paper plates and paper towel tubes. For the rings, cut out the inside of the paper plate and color them with markers. And for the other part, cut a small hole in a paper plate and stick the paper towel tube in it. Secure with tape. ***"The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle..." - Pierre de Coubertin Thanks to all the wonderful comments that were left this past week!!! We are so glad you are using these ideas and adapting them for your own Primary!!! ~iheartprimarymusic
