Orff Schulwerk SMART Board lesson - The Months (Orff)

Orff Schulwerk lesson, Kindergarten - Scarecrow
This is an original arrangement of a song about a Scarecrow. I have used it with Kindergarten through 2nd grade students, and it always goes pretty well. One fun thing to do is turn on a black light or a strobe, and have one or two kids fly around the room as we sing the song.
Click on the scarecrow to hear an accompanying track; look in the attachments tab to see a pdf of the Orff instrumentation.
I hope you like it! Have a great day.
