Kodaly Inspired Classroom: Back to School {First Day Activities} - 0 views

  • "Down, Down Baby" is from the Amidons. SO FUN! Apparently this is a favorite, because it's being sung on the bus!
    • cheyroseb
       
      This would also be a fun circle game to play at the end of class if you find yourself with a little time left over.
  • Mamalama: I learned this in Level 3, and we take it a bit faster than in this video, but it is SO FUN! I even had a student get the last part after just a few listenings. CRAZY!

      I like this one as an elementary vocal warm up as well.

Planbook.com - Online Teacher Lesson Planning - 0 views

  •  
    This is an online platform for lesson planning. I have always used a notebook but I am considering shifting to using plan book. Mainly because if there is an unexpected day where there is no class, the teacher can shift all of the classes over one day.

  • Jump in, Jump Out
    • cheyroseb
       
      I like this for older grades (4-5). They'll have more patience to wait for the circle to come all the way around.
  • Bee Bee Bumblebee, Can You Sing Your Name for Me
    • cheyroseb
       
      I love this as a first day of music activity for Kindergarten
  • Say Your Name
    • cheyroseb
       
      This game would also work for a composer or instrument unit. Students could have cards or nametags with the picture on the front and use that instead of their name.

  • Up the Ladder
    • cheyroseb
       
      This seems like a really fun game for 2nd and 3rd grade :) Older grades could even incorporate their own body percussion associated with their name.
  • There is a Class
    • cheyroseb
       
      LOVE THIS WOW
  • Who’s that Tapping At my Window
    • cheyroseb
       
      I would use this for 1st grade. It's simple enough to teach, but complex enough to assess where they are with certain concepts.
  •  
    An excellent set of first day of music activities to help teachers learn names and establish classroom routine.

      Not saying "this song is bad" but "I don't like this song because it's too slow/quiet, etc.)

    Many people avoid the LoC like it is the black plague.  However, even though it seems like it would be boring and stiff, they have many amazing resources and their digital catalogue is growing by leaps and bounds every day!  Additionally, if you cannot find something fully digitized and you believe the the LoC has it somewhere, just ask a librarian and they will be more than happy to help!

Getting Started with Firefox extension - Diigo help - 0 views

  •  Feature Highlight: Highlights Diigo saves the day with "highlights". Highlights let you select the important snippets on a page and store them in your library with the page's bookmark. Let's try it. Just open a page, maybe one of your old-school bookmarks or one of your new cat bookmarks, and find the information on that page you actually care about. Select that important text. Got it? Okay, now put your hemet on, 'cause this might blow your mind! Click the highlight icon on the Diigo toolbar. It's the one with the "T" on a page with a yellow highlighter. You will notice that the selected text gets a yellow background. This means that the text has been saved in your library, and as long as you have the Diigo add-on the text will be highlighted on the page! How's that for easy?   Now you've highlighted the text. It will appear in your library within the bookmark for the page it is on. Go to your library and you can see how it works. If you're not sure how to get to your library, just click the second icon on the toolbar (Diigo icon to the left of the search bar) and then select "My Library »".
  • Sticky Notes on the Web What? I can put a sticky note on a web page? How? Oh, that's right! Diigo. Just right-click anywhere on the page and choose to "add a floating sticky note". Type up your note and choose "Post", then move the note anywhere on the page. You have to type a note first, before you move it where you want, otherwise there's nothing to move!

  •  
    This site gives students the ability to create satisfying compositions that explore texture using loops that are designed to fit in with each other. Perfectly suited for differentiation, students can create works that are simple or complex.

    Incredibox is a great website to explore musical creation and entertainment. Incredibox invites you to become the conductor of a group of human beatbox. You can share your compositions with others from all over. It's a really fun website that even students will enjoy using.
  •  
    Incredibox is a neat web-based app where seven loops at a time are available for students to use at a time. They may remove and add loops at any point, and there are unlocked special content available for certain combinations. This makes it seem like a game. Students can share their compositions, but unfortunately cannot download it without paying. Regardless, this is a fun activity where all the loops sound good-no matter what the combination.
  •  
    Students can arrange an acapella mix using different beat boxers and vocals. 
  •  
    I love this program.  Great for the kids on a snow day, or a day we cannot get in the band room, but can use the computer room.
  •  
    This is a unique website which allows the user to create rhythm loops with characters in costume representing the individual loops. It is an easy-to-use program which allows the user to create endless combinations of rhythm patterns and sound effects. Selecting the correct combination of figures will unlock bonus features. The program is fun for all ages.
  •  
    This is a website for students to compose beatbox-type songs. Students can combine melodies, rhythms, sound effects and voices to compose their piece.
  •  
    This is user friendly, fun, loop-based software where users can mix their favorite loops and then record and easily share their creations with others. This program is free to use on a computer and can be purchased for an iphone or ipad.
  •  
    I have LOVED this website so much. I use it in class on a regular basis for a variety of uses. It is used as meaningful sub plans, rewards, and to explore creativity and composition. I also use it to discuss beatboxing and form.
  •  
    This is an excellent website that produces high levels of student engagement and buy-in. It allows students to "mix" their own music using pre-created beats, rhythms, and melodies.
  •  
    This is the link for our incredibox software we used in class. Make sure you save to the email stacipendry@yahoo.com so I can see your pieces. Version one will not record

    Incredibox is a web-based mixing tool, and its purpose is to create mixes with pre-set loops including, beats, effects, voices, and melodies. In each "dude", the user needs to select a "clothing piece" that contains a specific loops. The user begins creating their mixes, and can add and delete them as needed. Musically speaking, it is a teaching tool because the user learns how to mix loops ate certain points. It enhance several concepts such as rhtyhm and meter. It can be used by elementary and secondary-level students.
