Activity Cards for Preparation and Practice
by Susan Brumfield
New and experienced teachers alike will find First, We Sing! to be a practical, flexible and creative resource for bringing Kodaly's approach into American music classrooms.
These Activity Cards provide fast, fun and creative ways to give your students a workout in each of the six skill areas:
- Reading
- Writing
- Partwork
- Memory
- Listening
- Creating
Each 5-7 minute rhythm or melody activity is designed to assess either readiness or mastery at each step in the process, and students love the fun game-like context in which they used in each lesson.
4 activities are printed on each sheet in the pack (printed on 8½" x 11" sturdy card stock) - cut them apart and sort by color heading for quick and easy access!
