This is a super lesson that you can keep very simple or extend depending upon the age of the children. In this photograph below - Year 4's are enjoying Bee's song. These four soloists have all thought of something to sing to the notes B, E or BEE such as ...
Be Careful, Be confident, Don't BE a bad loser, etc.
The reprise says – I can BE anything I'd like to BE but the very best thing I can BE is ME! And we start the lesson talking about the things the children would like to aspire to be good at, or, Be like.
The rest of the class prepared their motto's by working out the rhythm for the sentence, and then writing it out on laminated music – they could choose to play their tune using tuned percussion on B, E or a combination of both notes.
To get the most out of this booklet you will need a Stave House Board and Magnetic Character Set. See: Music Teaching Pack
