How to get their attention (musically)!
Visiting a friends new baby, my husband asked, “Why does the baby just look at you?” ME: “I‘m the one who sings to him!”
This is the same for my new student teachers in the 5 year old class. Stop talking to them, they will hear, listen and respond much better if you sing what you want them to do. “Time for a circle, time for a circle, time for a circle, here we go!” They hear talking all day long, everyday! Do the unexpected and sing your way through class!
Now the funny thing is if you want them to quickly learn a song, and participate in singing, STOP singing! “Grey Squirrel, Grey Squirrel, swish your bushy ________”
Here’s a great one for quick participation, babies – age 6.
Enjoy the visuals for a reminder of the treats! One of hundreds of downloads included in membership.
Hope to see you this summer!
