Freeze Game to Franz Haydn
I took a classical song, written by Franz Haydn(1732-1809) and turned it into a wonderful game about sound and silence! Children will tip-toe,wiggle, jump and gallop to the beautiful music and then FREEZE! on the silences. Great way to teach them about rests. You can also use it to teach form as each new section has a different movement as well as instrumentation.

Making Inferences Song - Inference
This an original audio recording about making inferences. This song could be used in conjunction with any lesson about the skill of making inferences. I've used it in the past after an introduction to inferences. My advice is to parse the song into phrases and ask the class to examine their meaning. Then use quotes from the song when students are attempting the skill.
Having taught first grade for nearly a decade, I've realized the power of music and its impact on children. It encourages

Had to Stand Up (Song)
“Had to Stand Up” addresses the need to stand up to racist behavior and be a strong ally to those who are experiencing prejudice and discrimination.

The song can also help children build an awareness of sensations and emotions, and connect these feelings to taking action in a difficult situation. This discussion guide is aimed at children in gr
