This just makes my life so much easier - to have a complete lesson plan so thoughtfully prepared. Thank you!
This resource is beautifully designed, easy to use and highly engaging for students. It was an excellent addition to my repertoire!

Description

Rain, Rain is a guided lesson using Orff instruments. This interactive presentation guides elementary music students through vocal explorations, speaking rhythms, playing body percussion, singing, mallet warm-ups, and play-alongs for the song Rain, Rain. This carefully sequenced lesson is perfect for teachers who are less confident with teaching instruments or who want an easy step-by-step guide for teaching Rain, Rain.
