Music 5 minute sitting activities

These two activities are great for establishing focus and attention when the students first sit down, or after students have been more active moving around the classroom. It calms them quickly and allows you to move on to the next part of your lesson with ease.

I always sit students in a circle and sit in the circle, Open Close Them is a winner every time, the Beehive song takes a little practise especially with the more complicated finger movements at the end. The students love to sing the final phrase over and over.
