PLAN
STATE STANDARDS
K-2.MU.Re.7.2 Recognize and respond to foundational musical elements.
K-2.MU.Cr.1.1 Explore and experience musical ideas through simple rhythmic and melodic
patterns
LEARNING/BEHAVIORAL OBJECTIVES
Students will be able to:
 Sing the “Welcome Song” by themselves using good singing voices.
 Learn and sing “What Shall We Do?”
 Create rhythms with common notation using popsicle sticks.
RATIONALE
According to Rote Song Procedure, students develop their singing voice and creative movement
in preparation for reading notation. This process will help students learn a song quicker and
allow them to explore their voice and core elements of music.
In this lesson, class will start by singing the “Welcome Song” as a warmup and introduction to
music class. Here they can be reminded of what kind of voice we use in music class and what a
good singing voice should sound like. Then we will move on to the song “What Shall We Do?”
The students know two verses of the song already, so this part of class will consist of a quick
review of the previously learned verses and chorus, plus learning the remaining verses of the
song.
To end the lesson, students will be creating different rhythms using popsicle sticks. We will
practice and review how to make a quarter note, two eighth notes, and quarter rest out of
popsicle sticks. Then we will move on to creating! I will ask the students to create a rhythm of
one bar of four beats. In each beat, they can choose one of the three popsicle stick notation
marks and create their own rhythm. I will then ask for them to speak the rhythm allowed,
followed by the class participation.

ACCOMMODATIONS
For the first half of the lesson, I will evaluate students’ ability to use their singing voices and
ability to learn the song and will accommodate the students who might need a little extra
time/help learning the song, all while reinforcing the ideas of a good singing voice.
During the second half of the lesson, I will use proximity to ensure that all the students
understand how to create their rhythms with the popsicle sticks. If any students needs
accommodations during this part of the lesson, I will be walking around to help them with any
issues they run into.
CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT
When we are singing, I use a 1-10 volume scale, one, being quiet, and level ten going towards
yelling. I use this scale when students are not using good singing voices and if they are getting
out of control and yelling.
These students also love doing these activities like using the popsicle sticks. The students know
that the quicker we get through the lesson, the more time we will have to play the game or fun
part of the lesson.
IMPLEMENT
LESSON OPENING (hook)
 We will open the lesson with the “Welcome Song.”
TEACHING PROCEDURES
 Students will walk into the room and take their seats.
 We will sing the “Welcome Song” to begin class.
 If there are any issues with the song, we will review as a class.
 Then we will move on to “What Shall We Do?” This section of the lesson will start with
a quick review.
 Then I will teach the new verses of the song.
 After that, we will put the whole song together.
 The final section of the lesson will be creating a rhythm with popsicle sticks.
 The students will create one bar of four beats with popsicle sticks using a quarter note,
two eighth notes, and a quarter rest.
 We will review them as a class and give the students an individual opportunity to show
their rhythm.
Lesson Closing
 After the lesson has ended, I will ask the students, one at a time, to put the popsicle
sticks back in the container and line up. Once all the students are lined up at the door
and ready to go back to their classroom, I will excuse them from class.
Analyze
PRE/POST ASSESSMENT or EVALUATION
My assessments will take place during class, using proximity, and will assist students with the
concepts being taught. My post assessment will come from the progress made in class. From
there, I will use those results to plan the next lesson and teach the appropriate lessons/concepts.
REFLECT
I thought the lesson went well! The class did a great job of focusing throughout class. There
was the occasion when they would get a bit talkative and I would have to gather their attention.
The students seemed to enjoy the lesson and performed well with the activities. When singing
“What Shall We Do?” the class was moving a bit slower than usual. They had not seen the song
for about a week, so a majority of this activity was review. This caused an offset of the lesson
and resulted in rushing the final activity. I still think the lesson went well despite feeling a bit
rushed.
For the future, I should pay more attention the students’ progress and determine whether or not
I should spend more time on something or move on to the next activity. In this situation, I
probably should have moved on to the interactive rhythm activity, because the song we were
learning was used as a learning tool, not for performance. To ensure there is enough time for
the activity I want to get to, I will work on my awareness of student learning and progress, in
combination with the time given for class.
