Episode 10 Blog Notes: Great Music Games for the Primary/Elementary Classroom, Part 2

Introduction

For this episode 10, we are continuing to focus on ‘Great Music Games for the primary/elementary classroom’ and this is Part 2. This is a follow up from the last episode 9 plus several webinars that we have hosted about Music Games for the classroom within the last 12 months which can all be found in our Welcome to Music Membership. Today I’m going to share with you another 4 games – ‘Che Che Kule’ (for up to 8), ‘Mochi’ (for 8 plus), ‘Flea Fly Flo’ (for 6+) and ‘Four White Horses’ (for 8+). If you haven’t already, make sure you listen to the podcast or read the blog for Episode 9 to get the background of why games are important, the types of musical games we can use and some important guidelines that we can follow.

Let’s start at the very beginning…

Hello everyone, and it's so nice to have you here at the Welcome to Music podcast for music and classroom educators in Early Childhood and Primary/Elementary schools, music therapists, studio music teachers, parents, and anyone who uses music with kids to support their well-being and development from zero to 12 years. My name is Susie Davies-Splitter, and I've been teaching music to all ages in early childhood, schools and universities over many years. With my husband Phil, we run Welcome to Music where we create music resources, we have a membership community, and present training and programs for kids and educators. Our goal is to help build confidence and creativity and enrich lives through the joy of music. I hope that this podcast can support and inspire you and maybe even make your job a little easier through sharing tips, chats, lesson plans, interviews and great quality music resources to use with your children. I use an inclusive multi modal, multi-sensory and Orff based approach to help make the learning stick. Please enjoy the Welcome to Music podcast and find us at www.welcometomusic.net
