Simple Music Lesson - Indigenous Australian (NAIDOC) Composition and Performance
In this straightforward lesson children are introduced to Indigenous Australian music in the form of 'Songlines'.
Following the example of Indigenous Australian storytellers, children are encouraged to create their own musical composition using instruments, voice or a combination of both.
Children will experience composition, performing and conducting - all of which I have found the children to enjoy enormously.
Lesson plan attached which includes learning intentions and success criteria. I have also created a PowerPoint which can be used to assist in the introduction and teaching of the topic. The PowerPoint contains a short video.
Even if you do not use the lesson in its entirety, hopefully you will be able to make use of elements of the information I have provided. I have made every effort to make the lesson plan user friendly.
Running time: 1 - 1.5 hrs.
Feedback welcome as I am still very new to this.
