My First Grade Music Book

This workbook for children correlates with An American Methodology (item 839409). The teacher is encouraged to use additional songs and activities to enhance reading and writing skills. The book is written sequentially, but the teacher should feel free to change the order of the pages to suit the needs of the classroom.

 Part of the series of five sequential workbooks, based on American folksongs and children's rhymes, this book covers the following topics: 

• rhythmic elements of beat
• rhythm
• ta
• ti-ti
• ta-rest
• two-beat meter
• melodic elements of so and mi
• la in a so-la-so-mi pattern.

The worksheets may be used as masters for transparencies, individual worksheets, or may be bound in book form as a workbook for each student - the material comes as loose pages inside a packet, and is copy-permissible (for educational purposes) to the purchaser of the workbook.
