tough intro song with the leading tone into the tonic, and the 3rd to 4th degree in everybody-how....I'm trying to figure out what kinds of melodies are appropriate for this grade, and many have told me to avoid the 4th and 7th scale degrees, but this seems to work.
Thanks for posting! I'm teaching fast and slow to first graders for the first time and this gave me some ideas! I liked the line "You have two ears and one mouth for a reason."
Let's hear it for Cameron! ha! Like that you used two musical examples from the same composer. Also glad that you didn't use any High School Musical or Barney clips.
And good classroom management skills. Thanks for posting.

What is your rationale for seating the kiddos like this? Why not a circle? A circle is so much more appropriate for a music classroom.
Good lesson, nonetheless.

Nice teaching style, they had fun, and yet the class was still under control.
