Looking for a way to incorporate the Little Blue Truck books into your music classroom or jazz up your reading time of the Little Blue Truck series? These songs written for the Little Blue Truck books summarize what happens in the book while using the almost the same exact melody. Once your students have learned the first melody for Little Blue Truck, the melody stays mostly the same but the lyrics change with each different Little Blue Truck book that you own. This makes it easier to plug into future lessons involving these books. Included in this collection are Little Blue Truck, Little Blue Truck Time for School, Little Blue Truck's Halloween, Little Blue Truck's Christmas, Little Blue Truck Makes a Friend, Good Night Little Blue Truck, and Little Blue Truck's Valentine's Day. For grades PreK-2nd grade. Ukulele chords included for accompaniment purposes.

Taking a break from our arrangements is the Bucket Drum Battle, a series of 8 different bucket drumming etudes that will work your kids silly! With a cutting edge template with modern fonts and a wide array of colors, this will be sure to get your kids hyped up for this coming year!

From the Grey Drum all the way to the Black Drum, your students will learn rhythms, sticking, and work individually to ace their rhythms. After you review the rhythms, sticking, and procedure with your students, play one of the accompaniment tracks (slow, medium, or brisk) and have them all perform together.

Then, ask students individually to play the battle piece. If they master it, add a bucket onto their name chart (included!). Play one, play all! Think of it like the "Recorder Karate" for bucket drums :)

Included you receive:

• 8 color coded rhythm etudes on PowerPoint and PDF
• Accompaniment mp3 files (slow, medium, brisk, 80-120bpm)
• Record keeping chart to for tracking student progress
• jpegs of each rhythm for printing
• Tips and techniques to watch out for printed on each slide

Don't have bucket drums? Try StickStations, hand drums, tubanos, rhythm sticks, or Orff instruments! Anything you can do a rhythm on!

Looking for a fun, exciting, challenging, and engaging way to reach students in your upper elementary or lower middle school grades? Try this all-inclusive lesson that will get your kids racing against the clock and each other with The Great Escape!

In “THE GREAT ESCAPE”, students will be given a specific amount of time to perform tasks successfully (as designed by the teacher). Each one of these tasks is a musical task and the theme for this escape room are the notes of the treble clef staff.

There are five rooms, and in each room are several "tasks" students will have to perform (either individually, as a class, A vs B, side by side, or however you wish). As soon as the task is completed, advance the slide for the correct answer (the teacher will control the game).

After a certain number of tasks, a key will be issued to exit the room and head into another room with a different set of tasks.

The five rooms and tasks are as follows:

• Room One: The Office (Name one note on the staff)
• Room Two: The Laboratory (Name two notes on the staff)
• Room Three: The Library (Spell out the word)
• Room Four: The Lounge (Pick the correct note to match the letter)
• Room Five: The Foyer (Pick the correct tile to match the word)

If students complete all tasks and open the door to all five rooms they win the game!

You can play this one of four ways

• Set a timer (5 minutes, 10 minutes, etc). You can designate how long students should receive to complete the entire game
• Keep track of time to beat another class or grade level
• Keep track of time and try again during another class to name it faster
• Play it side vs side, boys vs girls, and see who can get to the end the fastest (or before time ends)

If you would like music to accompany this to make it a bit more engaging, try using this in the background:

Escape Room Background Music

Have a terrific time with this and let us know how it goes!

Using Eric Carle's "Pancakes, Pancakes" and Judith Viorst's "Alexander, Who's Not (Do you hear me? I mean it!) Going to Move" learn about 16th notes using the chants composed for these books. Use the accompanying beat charts to decode for the 16th note rhythm. Accompanying worksheets can also help to reinforce writing 16th notes either digitally or on paper. Great for 2nd-3rd grade.

Ready to start your kids on boomwhackers (or would like an end of the year review?)

Here in this primary pack geared towards your younger students, you will get 3 great resources at 20% when purchased here all together!

• Boom and Response (Call and Response for Boomwhackers!)
  In this resource, there are 3 tracks totally 5 minutes that you can play for your students (and repeat if necessary). Each track is a specific amount of beats for the "Call" (4 beats, 6 beats, or 8 beats) with the same amount of empty beats that follow directly after -- and thats where you students submit their "Response"

• BoomBox (25 sight reading patterns for BEGINNING Boomwhackers!)
  Students will see a series of 8 to 12 boxes with corresponding boomwhacker colors filled in each box. When played, the teacher will count off the students to read down the Boomwhacker boxes from left to right, line by line.

• Boom in a FLASH! (Boomwhackers against the clock!)
  Students will see one Boomwhacker color appear on the screen (PowerPoint presentation). The student who is holding that Boomwhacker must play the note (on the ground, hand, elbow, desk, whatever have you!), and then they automatically advance to the next slide... to another color!

  Keep it going, keep reading because... they're being timed! They will have 30 seconds to amass as many notes as they can (timer included) before the time runs out and they look at their high score (which is kept below).

Enjoy these and let us know how it goes with your kids!

Looking for something challenging for your 4th and 5th graders (or even early middle schoolers?) This game is fast paced and has these kids racing to dictate what they hear in a new game called "Rhythm Clockout!"

In this lesson, students will hear a 4 to 6 beat rhythm (with 8 preparatory beats) followed by a 3, 5, 7, or 9 second timer immediately following the rhythm. As soon as that timer begins (or even before for some of your advanced kids), have the students dictate what they heard before the timer runs out!

You can do this one of a few ways

• Print out notecards and have them line it up on their floor/desk
• Have them write it out on the whiteboard
• Draw it on their tablet (if applicable)
• Use Popsicle sticks for iconic notation
• Use your own type of notation

In all of these examples are quarter rests, half notes, eighth notes, and quarter notes. You can use the printouts included to print your own and cut them up, or even use your class set

There are 22 examples in this one with the electric guitar leading the melodic figures for the kids to notate. Most are around 100-120bpm, but some advanced ones go a bit faster

Lesson pro tip:

Wanna challenge the kids? Have a team vs team, kid vs kid, A vs B, etc and see who can get the most right (percentage of right notes) or even the right answer before the timer ends

Have a great time with this one, my upper elementary kids get super psyched!

Need to connect with your kids with their pop music through general music? Involve them in bucket drumming with Our #1 selling Imagine Dragons' hit, "Believer"!

There are three all-color coded slides along with the form identifiers listed next to each phrase. Discuss form with the students and teach them (by rote) the rhythms on the powerpoint with the corresponding repeats (most are repeated 4, 6, or 8 times). Then, apply it to drums!

All regular notation is to be played on the buckets (or drums, or ground, however you wish), and the X notation (with a down stem) are played as stick clicks above their head (or you could apply it to a tambourine or other auxiliary instrument)

Here's the track so you can play along...

Have fun with this and let us know how it goes!

A game that will keep your 4th and 5th graders entertained, engaged, and competitively charged, here's RHYTHM IMPOSTER inspired by "Among Us"!

In Rhythm Imposter, you will see 2 or 3 "crewmates" assigned with different instruments (either a trumpet, violin, or xylophone).

A musical example will be played where all of the crewmates will play their assigned rhythms on their instruments.

During the example, You, along with your students, will soon find out that the trumpet, violin, or xylophone did NOT play the correct rhythm!

Your task is to decide which crewmate is the IMPOSTER by selecting the one crewmate instrumentalist who didn't play their rhythm correct (or even at all!). Advance the slide and check your answer and go through the rounds!

Included in this resource are

• Mp3 examples embedded in each question (with trumpet, violin, and xylophone sounds) with a 4 beat countoff
• A printout where you can replicate and cut out cards (if you want the students to place on the floor or hold up to show which one was the imposter)
• 4 levels of rhythms with 2 and 3 imposters, along with a level where you can find the crewmate (and the rest of the instruments are imposters!

All examples have quarter, eighth note pairs, quarter rests and half notes (in Levels 3 and on)

Have a terrific time with this while your kids study polyphony!

A departure from our typical popular music fare, we now offer you "The Imperial March" from John Williams' Star Wars franchise!

There are five color coded slides along with the form and instrumental identifiers listed next to each phrase. Discuss form with the students (a great way to talk about the variations of the theme with inclusion or exclusions of certain instrument groupings) and teach them (by rote) the rhythms on the powerpoint with the corresponding repeats (most are repeated 2 times). Then, apply it to drums!

All regular notation is to be played on the buckets (or drums, or ground, however you wish), and the X notation (with a down stem) are played as stick clicks above their head (or you could apply it to a tambourine or other auxiliary instrument)

This one is great to work on 16th note triplets -- work on those alternating hands! :D

Here's the track so you can play along... (recorded by the LSO)
