I made six lessons: note length, rests, rhythm, scales, tempo (speed), and dynamics (volume). I recommend they be taught in that order. Each instrument shown under the "CRAFTS" tab corresponds to a lesson. (Note length - harmonicas, rhythm - castanets, tempo/speed - drums, and dynamics/volume - maracas.) However, they are not required and can be used with different lessons or not at all. When I taught these lessons, I also had a store-bought xylophone for the lesson on scales.

I recommend conducting the lessons in groups of three to five kids.

The button below will lead you to my personal notes for the lessons. However, I recommend you look on this page for the lessons and only use my notes if you wish to print anything out.
