    This site provides several pieces that focus on certain musical performance skills. The resources are in the form of downloadable sheetmusic. This is a great site for honing in on one specific skill being taght at a time. Most teachers use method books in lesson, which are of course very beneficial but may not put enough emphasis on a specific musical concept. This site has music in several categoires including finger patterns, shifting, and rhythm to name a few. Some of the categories have downloadable curricula as well, making it a great guide for novice teacher or even experienced teachers looking for new materials to work with.

    StringSkills.com is an excellent free resource for string teaching materials. Compiled by Gabriel Villasurda, this site contains fingering charts/suggestions, rhythmic practices (and crazy tunes to help reinforce the learning) as well as bowing techniques, scales and shifting. There are even challenge pieces to be played on one string. Definitely worthwhile for string teachers.
  • kristineyang3 on 28 May 17
     
    This website has free, downloadable exercises that address many string techniques. There are exercises for bowings, finger patterns, scales of varying difficulties, shifting, rhythm, and key signatures. This could be a great resource to push students from a beginner/intermediate level to being able to play advanced repertoire that involve complex rhythms, articulations and key areas. I would like to use this for upper middle school students to prepare them for high school instrumental programs.

  • It is best to introduce the sol-fa names by learning to recognise the intervals in familiar nursery songs.
    • cheyroseb
      cheyroseb on 14 Feb 19
       
      Good to think about when building elementary curriculum and lessons.
  • It is best to introduce the sol-fa names by learning to recognise the intervals in familiar nursery songs.
  • Start by teaching your little one So-Mi, which in the scale of C is G and E and sounds like “cuckoo” or “see-saw.”

  • When So and Mi are familiar, you can introduce La (A).
    • cheyroseb
      cheyroseb on 14 Feb 19
       
      Good to have a step-by-step (pun intended) for introducing little ones to solfedge.
  • Next you can introduce both Dos, high Do and low Do or bottom C and top C.
    • cheyroseb
      cheyroseb on 14 Feb 19
       
      step 3
  • A very good song for teaching both Dos is The Balloon Song, which can be sung with real balloons and is always very popular! 
    • cheyroseb
      cheyroseb on 14 Feb 19
       
      Make lesson plan around this later.
  • Fixed Do ( used in a lot of the European countries ) where they actually use the sol-fa note names to identify notes rather than letter names (C-D-E etc.)  So this means the note names remain the same regardless of the key that is being played.
    • cheyroseb
      cheyroseb on 14 Feb 19
       
      An old professor told me fixed Do was helpful for producing musicians with perfect pitch, however that is not my goal when teaching solfege.
  • Movable Do  where Do is always the tonic. For example, in C major, C is do; in D major, D is do; in E-flat minor, E-flat is do, and so on. And the sol-fa syllables always stay the same when going from one key to the next regardless if there are sharps or flats.
    • cheyroseb
      cheyroseb on 14 Feb 19
       
      Moveable Do is helpful for sight-reading and pitch relation within scales.
  • The moveable method gets too complex for younger children, so I tend to use the fixed Do method, but just wanted to clarify the difference here.
    • cheyroseb
      cheyroseb on 14 Feb 19
       
      Could put every song in the same key for a while before explaining moveable do.

    This book looks at a holistic, artistic, and integrated approach to understanding the connections between music and children. The book discusses developmentally appropriate methods to understand the role of music in children's lives including play, games, creativity, and movement. The book also explores ways of applying music-making to benefit the whole child, by looking at multiple domains that the child can benefit from with music (social, emotional, physical, cognitive, and linguistic).
