Today's relay
race is drawing whole notes around the staff lines and then
in the staff spaces. (show example) First we will draw
whole notes around the lines skipping up and down the staff.
To help us out,
for the first race I have put an 'x' over the lines as they
skip up and down. You will need to draw a whole note
around the 'x' over the next line up or down.
For
kindergarten, mainstreamed, or basic skills:
Draw
a very small 'x' over the line or in the space. The
student draws a whole note around the 'x.'
Hold out
your hand. Tag yourself and say "next line," (next
space) Now when you tag the next person, say "next
line." Play
game and give point to winning team (half - 1/2).
Okay, let's check
them. As I point to the whole notes, you say "next
line up" or "next line down." If it isn't
right you say, "too big" or "missed the line." Team
with most number correct receives a point.
Okay, let's
check them. As I point to the whole notes, you say "next
space up" or "next space down." If it isn't
right you say, "out of the space" or "missed the
space." Team
with most number correct receives a point.
