Plans for grades 3-5: Please show the following video about instrument families. After the video, you can use the instrument families PowerPoint. You'll need to click on the file to download it first and put it in presenter mode. There are directions in the first few slides and sound clips on the slides with questions. Please be sure to label the corners in the room (I usually tape labels on the walls) so students will know which corner to go to for answers. If they get too rowdy, you can have students point to the corners for the answers. After the game, students can play the sorting game, which are the green cards in baggies on top of the piano. In this game, students are to sort the cards according to numbers of syllables in the words and read the rhythms out loud to each other. One of my classes decided to use the cards as a matching game: putting them all face down and flipping over cards to try and match rhythm patterns (the words won't match, but the patterns will). There are enough sets for 9 groups.
Grades K-2: These grades can do a modified instrument families lesson. Have them watch the video below for instruments. They can try some of the ppt as well. Grade 2 can probable handle moving to and from corners. K and 1 might need to hold up numbers of fingers for their answers. You can also have them look at the below file that has school terms and rhythm patters with it. These slides are very similar to what are on the green cards/matching game. They can tell you how many syllables are in the words. The older students can tell you the names of the notes and symbols. Grades 1 and 2 would enjoy the matching game (face down and flipping them over). Kindergarten can try some freeze dance if there is extra time. There are CDs on the bookshelf you can look through.
