Change Sings
I love Amanda Gorman's poetry and couldn't wait to get this book. I've written a little song to go with it and added some Orff instruments. I suggest you find some un-pitched percussion to add to it, maybe egg shakers, maracas, claves or giro, or small hand drums on the beat. It would also be great with ukuleles - only needed the chords F and C. I usually teach the song first, read the book with the song (I usually sing as I turn each page), then teach the instrument parts and put them toge

This small group reader's theater is for 4 students. The names are girls but could be changed to include boys. This story is about Ruby Bridges told from the perspective of children living during that time. It was written for Black History Month.

Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Sleigh! by Mo Willem
Here's a fun book and song for your kids! I purposely made the instrumentation sound a bit like Jingle Bells. There is only one measure where they change, and they will need to practice that, but it shouldn't be too difficult. Remember to add a Hey! at the end on beat four!
