You’ll find interactive ideas for teaching this song with movement and manipulatives which will help you with your fall music lessons and activities.
Toss some leaves around that you can make with this fun freebie!
“Toss the Leaves” with song, activities and manipulatives to get your students playing rhythms quickly.
Ultimately, that’s the point right? We just can’t dump the leaves on the ground and do nothing with them!
Watch the video for some fun ways to use the leaves in your fall music lessons and activities.
Thirdly, it’s time to get crafty!
And if you don’t like crafty, then this really not a craft will work for you too!
Using manipulatives in the music classroom can help your students understand concepts like 1 sound on the beat, 2 sounds on the beat and 2 beats is one sound (half note).
So when you’re planning your fall music lessons and activities, be sure to get this idea from the video.
It’s an idea that’s really helped me in my teaching and with my students.
Ultimately, you’ll have everything you need for K-6 students when you get the FREEBIES and this BUNDLE!
