Musicplay Middle School Student Book

Musicplay Middle School Student Book By Denise Gagne

Book

76 pages

For grades 5-8 (especially 6)

Correlates to the Musicplay Middle School Teacher Guide (available separately, item 805032). A new concept in elementary music texts - softcover student books, priced so that your students can afford to purchase their own! Musicplay is a play based program - each week features a new game from which the musical concepts in the curriculum are taught. Children love music games - this is a text that will have your students really excited about learning music!

The separate teacher guide includes reproducible pages for the written exercises, so that the student books can be used for many years. Activities include practice learning conducting patterns, describe the elements of a piece and how they affect the mood of the piece, visit web sites to learn more (cultural information, instruments, etc.), write and perform a play using several Christmas songs, explain how the topic of a song is treated in other arts, accompany your singing on the guitar, write your own blues or rap song, identify the element that is changed in each verse of a song, and more.
