The
visual field
is lengthened as the song builds from counting beats in twos,
adding two letter words for "ta" and "ti-ti",
pitch numbers from 1-7 become two letter syllables
for "Do" through "Ti", and, ending with
the text, which is mixed between single letters and
monosyllable words.

So-Do, or 5-1, see, Pitch

- Show beat
divisions in two, see, Rhythms
Drills
- Count the
beats, "this
song is counted in two's, starting with AND, 1,2, AND" (teacher/student-points)
- "Are there any patterns?
Where?" (highlight with marker), "Let's do it again and see."
- Draw an "X" over
the first beat in measures 6,7, and 8.
- Count the
song again, clapping when you get to the "X".
Continue to mark out the divisions where claps will occur,
and read beats again.
- Follow the
same steps for reading the rhythms.
- Read pitches
in rhythm. NUMBERS FIRST! (teacher/student-points)
- "Are there any patterns?
Where?" (highlight with marker), "Let's do it again and see."
- "Do
you see the pitches we sang in the pitch drill? Where are
they?"
- Sing pitches,
NUMBERS FIRST! (teacher/student-points)
- "X" out
the pitches to be clapped, one at a time, and practice
each time.
- Using the
text, practice the motor skills passage first, "X" out
the letters of BINGO one at a time.
- Add the
remaining text.
Reinforce reading skills by having a student
identify "known" words
within the text, i.e., dog, BINGO = bing and go.
"Which pitches
have the same ending sound as the word BINGO?"
For keyboard centers,
transfer using any fingers comfortable, except where enrichment seems
appropriate to skill level.
Using an "X" reinforces
the symbol for a beat in music |
