Creative Connections and the Art of Play in the Music Classroom by Jane Barbe.
Movement, creative props, and instruments are the keys to hands-on activities that reinforce pitch matching, note-reading, steady beat, rhythm, instrument ID, and basic symbols. Play the Rhythm Roller Coaster dice game; identify instruments played by children in a tent; learn notes in a floor staff game; play a stop-and-go game of playing/ moving/singing the music, all the while continuing to “sing” the song in your head. Much more!
