Pitch Activity Book - Sing The Register

The "Sing The Register" activity from the Activity Book is an engaging and musical way to take attendance in the classroom. It involves the teacher singing a greeting to each child, which the child then echoes back. The standard response from the students is "Hello Mrs Johnson," matching the melody and words sung by the teacher. This not only adds a fun twist to a daily routine but also encourages children to practice their singing in a relaxed and familiar setting.

The beauty of this activity lies in its flexibility. Teachers have the option to vary the lyrics and melodies, perhaps asking a question like "Adam, are you here?" to which Adam could melodically answer "I'm here today." This can be an excellent opportunity to incorporate new musical notes that the children have learned, further reinforcing their musical education. For those ready to take it to the next level, an extension activity allows children to improvise their own melodies or choose from a variety of responses, fostering creativity and confidence in their musical abilities.
