Overall rating 4 out of 54.5 (2 ratings)

Last updated 10 November 2011, created 17 June 2010, viewed 13,218

Songs with different features and vocal exercises. In a programme devised by primary music expert Helen Macgregor, presenter Renee Montemayor introduces simple vocal warm ups and teaches three easy to learn classroom songs step by step, with the help of two young musicians on xylophones and a primar More…y school choir. Two vocal tongue twisters are used for a warm-up exercise and then we learn three songs: Kye Kye Kule - a West African action song, The Frog Song - a simple Japanese song rehearsing pitch, John Kanaka - a sea shanty with call and refrain. Each song has a different feature and may be more appropriate to different age groups, they can be used as repertoire for developing Ongoing Skills (Units 1, 8 and 15) or within specific units, e.g. Kaeruno uta ga - Unit 5 Taking Off: Exploring pitch.

Great to use with all ages. Have used with P1 and P7! Like the cultural element.

Embedding video. In this modern world of Learning Platforms and Virtual Learning Environments, it would be handy if this video had the HTML code so teachers could embed it into their websites to actually use in the classroom. Far more powerful than putting in a weblink to the whole page...
