Description
We take current vocabulary from the teachers as the basis for lyric writing and creating songs from scratch with the students; a song is created using vocabulary and current topics as their subjects. Students participate in the writing of the song (and performance when they choose to be so bold!). Students will create rhythms and patterns using music manipulative tools. Students will read music notation by relating solfege and numbers as a way to create and build melodies.

Students Will
  • Build a stronger vocabulary with the use of prepositions
  • Learn Song and lyric writing techniques
  • Use a strong level of creativity to learn material
  • Successful Lyric Writing, Sheila Davis, 9780898792836
