The kids are still excited from Christmas and have lots of energy from being cooped up inside all day. To get them moving and engaged, I love to play this singing game with them in the winter! Little Snowflakes is a fun singing game that is perfect for practicing musical contour, steady beat, and quarter and eighth-note rhythms! Although this is a great song for the winter time, we play it all year by substituting the word snowflakes for feathers or raindrops! My students love this song from kindergarten to first grade and they love playing the game. <p></p><h1 style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><u>The Song</u></span></b></h1><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh3Gkje9RidlpmtNJ7B_9bBMr5iohgOj9zSTUxqKus2I3t2H8_2xEl9PdMJhh2WOuMr464IRZK7rmzeBT2boZ8OCoeRD1d76cNVvPk0fx78b7I8Yba7hCWPe7b6f4DUOu9SyncmiF7xJwK3u_dpjqT-edZKn143ueYwkQ-M7pEt-MNT7n9_W_wCKH5I" style="background-color: white; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="" data-original-height="546" data-original-width="1502" height="237" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh3Gkje9RidlpmtNJ7B_9bBMr5iohgOj9zSTUxqKus2I3t2H8_2xEl9PdMJhh2WOuMr464IRZK7rmzeBT2boZ8OCoeRD1d76cNVvPk0fx78b7I8Yba7hCWPe7b6f4DUOu9SyncmiF7xJwK3u_dpjqT-edZKn143ueYwkQ-M7pEt-MNT7n9_W_wCKH5I=w653-h237" width="653" /></a></p><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UL_zlGlpaJLVufXOL1VTNjsXhxXzZDPs/view?usp=sharing">Click Here to Listen</a></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><u>The Game</u></span></b></h2><p>My students always have a blast playing this game. We start by singing the song in a circle, with one student walking around with a "snowflake" (I use a feather, scarf or crumpled up piece of paper). The student holds the snowflake above the heads of the sitting students. When the song ends, the student under the snowflake is out and takes on the role of the person walking around the circle. It's a simple, but fun game!</p><p>My students enjoy this variation even more - we all walk around the the steady beat and sing the song, with one student holding the "snowflakes." At the end of the song, everyone else freezes and the student with the snowflakes throws them in the air. If one touches you, you're out. The last person standing wins! For the students who are out, I usually let them start join the person throwing the snowflakes or play some unpitched percussion instruments to the beat. Another great thing about this game is that it doesn't take too long to play, so it is easy to keep the littles attention.</p><span id="docs-internal-guid-adb47b34-7fff-d161-8531-b45fc98275e9"><h1 style="text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #444340; font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><b style="color: black; font-family: Times; white-space: normal;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><u>Teaching the Song</u></span></b></span></h1><div><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #444340; font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Times; white-space: normal;">To teach the song, I start by echo singing a line at a time. I show the contour on my body while I sing - sol on my head, mi on my shoulders, re on my knees and do on my toes. Once the students can sing it, I take a scarf out to show them the "wintery air." I ask them which way the melody blows for each line and mirror it with my scarf. To extend the lesson further, you could also give the students scarves to trace the contour with. </span></span>Then, I ask them to tap the snowflakes to the beat to prepare them for walking to the beat in a second for our game!</div><div><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #444340; font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Times; white-space: normal;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #444340; font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-54eb515b-7fff-0e2f-6db6-723a539f9839"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="border: none; display: inline-block; height: 351px; overflow: hidden; width: 624px;"><img height="351" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/gjvBmig49JVKCn1fizLHjkspkkCM3qOIGGgyX3SX8KXFk0TYpF3wx9OOH31Y5wN-PZcZjUjQ9x0zq1rfhtPJSV94OZQnlF3_Sm1MOjYnY149E3evVCsVj5iYCJ3wvCdUSuTOPLaXdkCFeAY35Y5XJzg" style="margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" width="624" /></span></span></span></span></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><span id="docs-internal-guid-4fa72e51-7fff-b92d-e463-e8a13fbec26d"><span style="color: #444340; font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="border: none; display: inline-block; height: 355px; overflow: hidden; width: 624px;"><img height="355" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/CP_f4KeSGDygAIEd2hySgJs069VPNULlbhmruEy531Ibt8jCnrlV2dp_mlINLV1XIshHxUwT1Wn_hh6hgvDlgEbRSz8B4vr13C2yoW1oy5R3l8M2whb76Z9-pB9IK1rNBvYhgmcY46OgSHLOyoNGics" style="margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" width="624" /></span></span></span></div><div><br /></div><div>After that, we play the game!</div><div><br /></div><div>In the next lesson, we review the song and the game and take it a step further by looking at the rhythms!

We asked and answered questions about "The Little School Bus" and it was fun to see all the different things the illustrator did in this story. Here are the questions I used:<br />

We discussed our opinions and voted if we wanted to let the Pigeon Drive the Bus. Each student got a pigeon to color and then we put them on a graph to vote. Students came up one by one and told me why they think the pigeon should or should not drive the bus. <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_noK3FTJrq_M3dBZDhaTllDdU0/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank">Click here for the pigeons</a></div>

<br />
We studied our names this week and what makes us special.<br />
<br />
We took the book Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and read it on Monday. Here are some questions from my lesson:<br />
<strong style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; widows: 1;"><br /></strong>
<strong style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; widows: 1;">During Reading: </strong><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; widows: 1;">Ask the students some of the questions below.</span><br />
<ul style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; widows: 1;">
<li>Do you think all of the letters will be able to fit up in the top of the tree? Why or why not?</li>
<li>Have you ever climbed a tree? What was the experience like?</li>
<li>What might happen as more letters climb the tree?</li>
<li>Why do you think the letters all fell out of the tree? What happened?</li>
<li>Have you ever fallen down?</li>
<li>What happened when you fell?</li>
<li>Did someone come and help you? How did they help?</li>
<li>What happened to the letters when they fell down?</li>
<li>Where do you think the letters are going as their families help them get up from the letter pile? Why do you think this?</li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; padding: 0px; widows: 1;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; padding: 0px; widows: 1;">
Explain the difference between a letter and a word. Write "Chicka, chicka Boom Boom, Will there be enough room?" on the board. Ask students to find a letter, two letters, three letters. Find a word, two words, three words. Have names on sentence strips. Sort names according to how many letters they have on a pocket chart. </div>

<li>How did that make her feel?</li>
<li>Who was the student who said, "She has 13 letters in her name.?" (Victoria)</li>

<li>Who made a mistake in the story? (Victoria)</li>
<li>What did Mrs. Twinkle name her baby?"</li>

<br />
The first day we went over many procedures and got to know each other. <br />
We read Pete the Cat Rocking in my school shoes.<br />
<br />
The next day we read Pete the Cat I love my white shoes. All week we said "Do we get upset? Goodness No!"<br />
<br />
Here is a peek at my lesson plans:<br />
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; padding: 0px; widows: 1;">
Introduce the parts of the book: Cover, back cover, title. Who is on the cover? Where do you think Pete will be going in this book? How can you tell? When we read we make connections. A connection is something that makes you think of something else. I can make a connection to Pete the Cat going to school to our class going to school. Let's read to find out what happens when Pete the Cat goes to school.</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; padding: 0px; widows: 1;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I love Brain Breaks! </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We use several throughout the day and it keeps my students energized and focused. I decided to combine our concepts with brain breaks in a PowerPoint. This way students will drill and practice their concepts and have a short 10-20 second brain break in between. My students <b><span style="color: red;">love</span></b> this and it really keeps them motivated to drill those letters and sight words.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Check out the video demonstration.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The PowerPoint is editable so you can move the slides around to keep your students guessing what is coming next. You can also edit the timing of the slides if you would like to give your students more time or less. There is a slide for each Uppercase and Lowercase letter.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Intervention are <u>essential</u> to helping your students become proficient in fundamental skills for reading and math. As you assess your students and gather data you find some students who need extra support in gaining the skills you taught. Taking these students in a small group to reteach the concept allows students to get individualized and intense support.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The Interactive Intervention packet </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">(Lowercase Letters) </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">includes activities and interventions that help students become confident and help keep them engaged. These are activities I use in my small group that have helped my students master their lowercase letters and sounds.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">My favorite activity is the <b><span style="color: blue;">Cover Up Cards</span></b>. Students each get a card with letters on them. You can choose a red or blue card. The red card focuses on the first 13 letters (a-m) and the blue cards focus on the last 13 letters (n-z). There are also blank cards that you can write the letters your students need to work on.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">There are some different ways to play with the <b><span style="background-color: white; color: blue;">Cover Up Cards.</span></b> I like to use magnetic chips because the students love them, but you can use small erasers or even pennies. You call out a letter and students cover up that letter on their card.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: magenta;">Lotto Cards</span></b> are another quick and easy way to get your students to learn their letters. Flip over an alphabet flashcard and have your students place a marker on the matching letter. I print each sheet on a different color, which help me keep those cards together. The entire sheet assess all 26 letters. Students love trying to get their card filled up first!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Matching letters with manipulatives you have in the room is a great way to reinforce letter recognition. I have included several examples in the picture below (magnetic letters, bottle caps, letter beads) This can be an independent center as well. See if your students can name all the blue letters. Another fun way to asses your students.</span></div>

teaching I make them wait to use the bathroom. We have a bathroom in the

students must wait.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I also schedule
multiple bathroom breaks the first week.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">

to change your line up for lunch.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You

not expect the students to follow my morning procedure, but I do go over it
before the next day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have a folder for
each student.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The student is expected to
take out their folder and put it in their mailbox.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They need to get their snack out.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I arrange their snack by tables in a
bucket.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When it is snack time, I give
each table their bucket.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I show students
how to hang their book bag up and then they sit down at their table to begin
the school day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Whatever your morning
routine is, practice and model it with your students.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You will have to remind some of them several

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">To pack up I have students get
their folder and I have them color in their behavior chart.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This correlates to the color their clip is
on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The first few days I have all the
blues color in at one time, then the greens, etc.. so I can check it is done
correctly.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Students then go get their
bookbag and return to their seat.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Notice
they only have their folder first.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This
is so I check everyone’s folder off first before they pack up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They get their folder and color in and wait
for me to check it, then they get their bookbag and pack up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I like bookbags on the floor or the backs of
the chairs.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I say “Clear the decks” and
they say “Aye, Aye, Captain.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-no-proof: yes;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Want to help your students
succeed in their reading assessments?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have been targeting key
words and phrases used in the <span style="color: blue;">mclass TRC </span>reading books for years to help my
students feel confident and successful.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-no-proof: yes;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Many students have not been
exposed to certain words before they are expected to read them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With these books and resources, I ensure that
the students have practiced these words with me and indepenently.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-no-proof: yes;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have spent countless hours
searching for books that targeted the exact words needed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now, I have books that target those words and
phrases for me.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-no-proof: yes;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This packet is meant to
supplement your guided reading program and give support to students who are
struggling. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I went through and made a
list of every word that appears in the assessment books.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Most are common sight words, but some are
more complex words that I want to make sure the student has been exposed to.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-no-proof: yes;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Here is how I use the
books.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="color: red;">First</span> you need to print and
assemble the books.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-no-proof: yes;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">You can have the student
assemble the books or you </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-no-proof: yes;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">can pre make them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I have done both.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-no-proof: yes;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">It just depends
on how much time you have.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-no-proof: yes;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">You cut

<span style="mso-no-proof: yes;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">If you want the students to
put the book in order the same way each time, I suggest writing a number on
each picture so they can put the book in the order easily.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div>

Glue/Staple direction goes on top as the cover.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I find it easiest to staple.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>When you are done you have a great book the student can use over and
over again.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I kept this packet black and
white to allow </span></span></div>

<br />
I use my iPads everyday in Kindergarten centers. I started with two iPads and now I am at five, the perfect number for my centers. I like the iPad mini for my little ones, but iPads work great as well.<br />
When I had only two iPads I would rotate them with another center so the students had to take turns. I set a timer and when the time was up the students switched out. Sometimes, we did have two students on one iPad and they learned to share. It can work!<br />
<br />
I have a station table for iPads only, with a list of the student assignments. <span style="color: magenta;">You can get one by clicking here:</span> <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Center-Management-for-IPADS-1985129" target="_blank">Editable iPad Student Assignment</a><br />

<br />
On occasion I do have to separate a student from the table so they will focus, but mostly the students love working together and talking about the app they are on.<br />
<br />
I also number each iPad so students know what iPad they are assigned to. <span style="color: magenta;">Here is a link to the Wallpaper I use:</span> <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Center-Management-for-IPADS-1985129" target="_blank">IPAD Wallpaper</a><br />

<br />
I give a through explanation of how to use the iPad to the class and then I go over it with a small group at my table, making sure each student knows the expectations. I explain the volume control and the reason they have to stay in their seat. They are not allowed to walk around with the iPad. If they need help they are to raise their hand and wait. Can be hard for a five year old, but when I tell them they will lose their turn on the iPad, they usually don't get up.<br />
<br />
The most important thing that helps my centers is Guided Access. It is a feature found on the iPad and it locks the app so student cannot visit any other apps. Here is how you enable it.<br />
<br />
1. Go to Settings<br />
2. Click on General and scroll down until you see Accessibility.<br />
3. Scroll down until you see Guided Access. It is under the Learning Title.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
4. Click on Guided Access and slide the button so it is on and showing green.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWNyEQ9SJipVR40dj7L12pLQo6-EJiK9aj4PEn0DCMrG8YKvmqb0lzd8dNj8qH2cVrSfSfiDavRtcoH_6JUoLsC596K7ZDniHcMGpWOsd5yCOMrU70r7hFbKLFmKHcop7pmSIr6i4XXQg/s1600/IMG_0034.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWNyEQ9SJipVR40dj7L12pLQo6-EJiK9aj4PEn0DCMrG8YKvmqb0lzd8dNj8qH2cVrSfSfiDavRtcoH_6JUoLsC596K7ZDniHcMGpWOsd5yCOMrU70r7hFbKLFmKHcop7pmSIr6i4XXQg/s320/IMG_0034.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
5. I set a passcode to enable and disable the Guided Access. I find it helpful to enable the shortcut as well. You can even put time limits on so they only can play for a set amount of time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
6. Go to the app you want the student to stay on and click the home button 3 times. You will see this screen on whatever app you are on with the Guided Access Started Square:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
7. When you want to end Guided Access you will have to click the home button 3 times and put in your passcode. So if students click the home button too many times, they still won't be able to get out of the app without the passcode.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I choose a different app for the students to explore each week. I preview the app and show them some of the cool features and what I want them to try and accomplish with the app. They love the iPad station and I love the independence and key skills they are learning on it.</div>

It is thrilling to see all the things students can learn in a year. I am excited to share all the things I have learned and hear from you as well. I actually have heard from several people who use my blog and it has been nice to keep these connections. I am really "Singing a New Song" and hope that my followers will benefit from my music and education background. I have started with this new banner and button. I hope you like it and look forward to interacting with you soon.

I am excited to report that I am taking a new Kindergarten Position at my son's school in January. I have stopped teaching piano privately, so I will not be making any new resources. I thank all of you for your support and hope my materials continue to help teachers and students learn the joy of music. I will keep this blog up for all those teachers who are looking for songs and resources. Have a wonderful New Year!</div>

Here is how the incentive works:<br />
<br />
Students earn stars for different things during their lesson.<br />
I have chosen to give stars for the following items:<br />
<br />
1. Sight Reading: Each week the students sight read a piece during their lesson. If they are successful they earn a star.<br />
<br />
2. Rhythm: Each week the students perform a rhythm by clapping, counting and then playing them on a note or chord. They can also earn additional rhythm stars by counting while playing an assigned piece or performing a song with wonderful rhythm.<br />
<br />
3. Note Naming: The students always play their rhythm to a note or chord I have them name. I usually include notes they are struggling on. If they get them correct they win a star. I also have the students name notes in their assigned piece. More stars!<br />
<br />
4. Presentation: I give this star to students who come prepared with materials and present their assigned piece musically. Dynamics, articulation, pedaling, artistry all can encompass the presentation star.<br />
<br />
5. Practice: I assign goals for my students to accomplish each week and I can usually tell if they have practiced or not. You could modify this if you assign a practice log.<br />
<br />
6. Super Star: This is going to be stars students earn for special things like memorization, mastering a scale, performing, etc...<br />
<br />
Each student then chooses an alien on my stars board. The alien keep track of the stars they collect each week. I purchased some foam stars to stick up on the board and the students write the number of stars they earned at their lesson and stick the star next to their alien.<br />
<br />
It is up to you what the stars mean, but my students spend their stars on prizes. Different prizes cost different amounts. I have made several games revolving around this theme and hope to have them available soon. Here are some pictures of the stars board.<br />
