Lesson 23

Product Description

FIND/HOLD/DRILL Tool

This program is cumulative in nature. For best results, begin with
Lesson 1.

Congratulations to you for making it to Lesson 23! You are going to learn a critical skill in this lesson that will help your students enormously as the difficulty increases in the sight singing examples.

We have three major goals with S-Cubed:
Create success with each progressive step
Develop independence and self-reliance among our sight singers.
To arrive successfully at 2-part sight singing that includes difficult skips and syncopated rhythms.

In this two-day lesson, we focus on an important skill called
FIND/HOLD/DRILL. We actually take our students through the process of using this valuable pitch-finding skill seven times on Day 2 in order to raise their comfort level in using it.

In this two-day lesson, you will receive:

1 Sight Singing example that includes dotted-quarter eighth note combinations and difficult intervals.
1 Group Rhythm Exercises in 2-parts during which you emphasize performing with balance as well as continuing to help your students learn to see some short cuts that will help them avoid mistakes when performing in 2-parts.
You will get two pages of interesting discussion guidelines to help prepare your students for the importance of this tool.
You will get a list of several sight singing tools that you can give to your students.
You will get special written guidelines for the procedures of Day 2 as well as special video teaching tips for this all-important day.
You will get two hand-outs to give to your students that include guidelines for the use of the FIND/HOLD/DRILL tool.
As always, you will get links to videos of Mr D actually implementing the lesson to his own students.

Your students will stop moaning when you pull out the Sight Singing materials with S-Cubed! It is the 21st century way to improve how you teach Sight Singing. It is carefully progressive in sequence in a manner that encourages and increases the chances of success for your Upper Elementary and Middle School students each and every day. The daily success helps them to be more likely to enjoy the process of learning to Sight Sing.

The method is developed by a real teacher in a real classroom. S-Cubed is like a teacher workshop that includes lesson plans and lesson guidance by a teacher who is using it in his classroom everyday. These are real materials that are used in my classroom daily. \
