#66 Music Lesson Spotlight Scottish Dance Music

13m · Diverse Learning in Schools · 24 Oct 11:28

Go through a super engaging music lesson plan with me, Jenny Licko as I share my expertise on Scottish music. I’ve taught this lesson hundreds of time and it’s one of those no fail, super rewarding lessons to teach. 
Not only suitable for most music state standards, the national standards for the arts and the PYP framework this lesson on Scottish dance music is a dive into some history, culture and legends. A large part of the activities have a focus time signature and that relationship to various Scottish dances.  There is also a brief introduction of the bagpipes, and other traditional Scottish instruments, but we dive deeper in those instruments on the podcast #63 Scottish instrumental music.

Using a children's classic story is a great way to engage students because they already know a lot about the story! You are speaking their language! Peter Pan was written by Scottish Born James M.

Lesson Spotlight Scottish Instrumental Music

I’m going through one of my favorite 4th grade music lesson plans step by step and giving you the lesson plan to download and access to the lesson for remote learners!!! Yep, you get it all - one stop shop - except it’s FREE. The Scottish Highland Bagpipe is a part of this lesson, but so are other instruments such as the Celtic drum (Bodhran), fiddle, accordion, and the voice! This lesson reinforces elements of time signature, how rhythms and sounds send signals, dance, and history.

Cultural Folklore

Finding culturally diverse resources to use in your classroom can be a challenge. I love using Folklore because there is just so much you can do with these legends, stories, and myths. In this episode, I give you a folktale you can use in your class that comes from Brazilian culture. You can also get the full lesson created for your classroom and for remote learners!
