Over the past several years, I have created three different thematic units for music that I teach 4th - 6th graders: Musical Genres, Hits Through the Ages, and Musical Legends. Each unit is a year in length, at a pace of one lesson per week. Each lesson requires between 35 - 60 minutes depending on how you pace them. All lessons include a graphic organizer for students to take detailed notes, wall art for your classroom, and were designed to engage students through the use of multimedia, built in participation, and interesting content. Clicking on the name of each lesson will take you to its online version. I’m in the process of adding online versions for all of my lessons. The ETA for completion will be 2026. The PowerPoint downloads are currently not working. I will fix this soon. For detailed information about each unit, please download the included lesson plan at the bottom of each column. |
