How can I teach my students to sight-sing when I have them for such a limited class time? Sight-Sing a Song will help you do just that – teach your students to sight-sing with confidence. This well-designed sight-singing approach by master teacher and choral director Audrey Snyder progresses in an easy step-by-step fashion through a variety of exercises that culminates with a special song students will be able to sight-sing! Each lesson includes helpful Teacher Tips that focus on the music concepts being presented, a suggested teaching sequence to use when presenting each exercise, keys to sight-singing success, options for enrichment and motivation, and two student reproducible pages filled with sight-reading exercises. Exercises and songs are presented in the keys of C major and F major, so students will also experience moveable “Do.” After students have perfected each exercise a cappella on their own, they can enhance the learning process further by performing with the rhythm accompaniment tracks that can be accessed online. Performance/ accompaniment tracks for the songs are also included. Time is short. Let's start sight-singing! Available: Book/Online Audio. Suggested for grades 2-6.
