Description
Jump Right In! is a curriculum built upon the ideas of Music Learning Theory created by Edwin Gordon. While using my Jump Right In books I noticed it was difficult at times to find songs that were focused on concepts I wanted to teach quickly due to the sheer volume of material in each grade level. To make it easier for me to use my books I created spreadsheets for each grade so I could plan more effectively.
The Kindergarten spreadsheet lists the following items for each song in the Kindergarten book:
- Page in Jump Right In Book
- Disc and Track Number
- Tonality and Resting Tone
- Meter with macro/microbeats
- Keyality and Range
- Materials needed
- How the song and activities help support student learning and musical independence
This resource does not include the teaching plans for each song in the book.
