This is a website that seems to have an endless supply of resources!  There are many multicultural resources, opportunities to link up with other elementary music teachers, as well as many links to free copies of songs and lessons.

Artie Almeida has a ton of free downloads to accompany not only her lessons that are in her books, but also free printables that can be used in many original lessons.  Many of her ideas are unique to other lessons I have seen around.

This website has some fantastic options for teaching students about music from around the world.  It also gives them a chance to explore different cultures and different ways of life than they are used to.  I like to use these sort of lessons in conjunction with Google Maps Street View where you can go and explore the area you are learning about on the computer.

This could be a great resource as a fun follow up with certain topics students are learning.  It could also be a good individual time to explore what they are interested in, whether it be at school or at home!

This website is fantastic for students as individuals or as a full class activity! Step by step it takes them on a safari to learn about each instrument of the orchestra using Benjamin Britten's "A Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra". It is kid-friendly and would be great for students in 2nd and 3rd grade. It tests their listening skills using games deciphering things like notes in a sequence, or high and low.

I have found this website useful countless times!  You can search generally or specifically for pre made presentations for SmartNotebook that you can then download and edit as you wish to fit your own classroom needs.  It could be used in any type of music classroom.

Though the songs found on this blog are public domain, she posts them directly here to cut out the leg work of finding them and also tells exactly what she does with each song and what concepts she teaches!  Perfect resource for any general music teacher.

This site has tons of games that are perfect for all ages in the elementary music classroom!

Simple tool to help my students hear the steady beat when we are working with rhythms!  It could also be a great tool to help them see the different tempi.

This site is fantastic for Elementary Aged students!  There are tons of games that my students love (especially when we're reading notes), and so much information and recordings.  It's a great supplement to any lesson!
