Less than $5 2nd Grade Social Emotional Learning Projects (by date, oldest first)

Are you looking for a fun and engaging way to add classical music to your classroom or homeschool? Classical music has been shown to provide numerous benefits for children, including reducing stress, improving focus and concentration, and increasing creativity. These activities are great for music appreciation and also help build social-emotional skills! Each activity is easy to set up (no glue required!) and a great way to engage students for the New Year in January.

Listening Buddies sheets feature a piece of classical music with the composer’s name. While the music plays, students draw a scene in the box inspired by the music. They can also explore the feelings and mood of a piece by choosing meaningful keywords that match their listening experience. Students color the listening buddy at the top of the page or you can print the color version.

There are no wrong answers, and no musical training is required. Just print and play! Music is available on YouTube or your preferred streaming service.

This activity pack features one music selection from January Mindful Listening! Students can color their black & white listening buddy page topper or you can print the color version.
