Everyday Improvisation

These well-constructed interactive lessons provide a smooth and easy way to teach improvisation and composition to elementary students. Each plan starts with a song, chant, or poem, provides prompts for active listening, and invites students to improvise individually or as a group.  Each activity concludes with a rubric-measured assessment. Kids will enjoy singing and moving to the songs, playing classroom instruments, and manipulating the cartoon-style graphics on the interactive whiteboard.
