With this fun lesson plan your students will practice expressive contrast, ensemble skills, and clear musical thinking.
In this lesson, students will explore how a single song can evolve across cultures and styles, using the familiar tune "The Lion Sleeps Tonight."
This lesson plan teaches young students how the same song can feel totally different depending on how it’s sung or played. We do this with the song, "La Bamba" which was first documented in the 1800's.
This lesson plan will focus on analyzing how one melody can last for hundreds of years and be interpreted many different ways. We do this using Elvis Presley's "I Can't Help Falling in Love With You."
