Simply Speaking

This great teaching resource presents 14 activities for the music classroom centered around the idea of speech, chants and word rhythms.  Sue Mueller's extensive experience in the classroom, in addition to her well-received workshops and Orff courses, guarantees that this book will be a valuable tool for teaching musical concepts.  The activities are arranged in Orff style with lesson plans and objectives, teaching suggestions and a useful glossary of terms.  Each lesson is correlated to the MENC National Standards.  A CD-ROM is included with full-color and black-and-white visuals to supplement each lesson.  The visuals are suitable for your presentation software or your interactive whiteboard.
