Music Resource Description
The second lesson in the Rhythm & Pulse series for Year 2 students aims to deepen their understanding of pulse through engaging and interactive activities. The objective is to reinforce their grasp of the concept by involving them in various clapping games that require coordination and attention to the steady beat. Key vocabulary for this lesson includes 'pulse', and resources are focused on partner activities and sequences of movements that align with rhythmic patterns.
The main portion of the lesson is filled with lively exercises starting with 'BOOM CHICK-A-BOOM' and 'WHO HAS A BROTHER?' where students listen and respond to musical tracks. The 'COPY ME' game encourages children to mirror actions set to the pulse, with a variety of movements such as clapping and tapping different body parts. An advanced version of this game, 'SWITCH', challenges students to keep up with changing actions while maintaining the pulse. Additionally, the classic clapping game 'A SAILOR WENT TO SEA SEA SEA' is taught, promoting partnership and coordination. Children are then invited to create their own clapping sequences with partners, fostering creativity and teamwork. Some pairs showcase their sequences, and the class attempts to replicate them. The lesson concludes with the song and game 'TONY CHESTNUT', which incorporates actions and gradually removes words to focus on the movements. The plenary involves singing 'GOODBYE EVERYONE' with actions, humming, and thinking the tune, wrapping up the session expressively. The National Curriculum goals tied to this lesson include using voices expressively, singing, chanting, and performing collaboratively.
