This is a complete music curriculum for grades K-5. It is a rough outline, but it's exceptional good for teachers in a district without an outline as a jumping off point. There is no specific textbook associated with this so it is good for teachers without a textbook.

This is a wonderful activity that can be used to allow students to explore a percussion instrument on their own. This can be used to allow students to work in groups are independently. It also would allow students to "pair/share" or practice teaching a larger group. It also allows students to compose a short percussion piece at the end of the worksheet.

This is used to incorporate writing into an early elementary music classroom at the end of our marching band/brass instrument unit. It allows the teacher to include cross-curriculuar materials and full fills some districts requirement to incorporate writing into all curriculum.

I use this when teaching recorder. If you print it on card stock and laminate it, it does last awhile. I give each student a post-it note and have them write their name on it, then place it on their current job. We rotate jobs during class.

This worksheet allows students to become an active participant in experiencing how a woodwind instrument makes sound. This is a cross-curricular lesson incorporating both science and music.

These cards can be cut apart and laminated or placed on card stock to help students know the different between repeated music patterns, music patterns that step up and down, and musical patterns that jump. This is a fun manipulative that can be incorporated easily into any music curriculum.

This assessment goes along with the note pattern cards. The teacher can play the pattern and then have the students circle the correct symbol on their worksheet. The symbols used on the worksheet correspond with the symbols used on the manipulative cards.

These cards are to help students know the difference between stepping patterns, jumping patterns, and patterns that stay the same. Print these cards on card stock, laminate, and keep them together as a set. They can be used for a variety of occasions. PLUS they are a great hands-on manipulative for students who need to always have something in their hands.
