4 Corners of Fun - Special Area Ideas for 3-6

Music

Find a song you like to listen to or sing on your own. 

(4th grade has been using the song, Africa, by Toto https://www.youtube.com/watch?

v=DwfY9Gre7SI but you can use any song.)

Then, get a drum and rhythm sticks.  If you don’t have these instruments at home, get

creative! (For example, you could use a plastic kitchen bowl turned upside down as a drum

and wooden kitchen spoons as rhythm sticks.)

As you play or sing your song, the sticks will play a steady beat on the verses and the drums

will play on every beat 2 and 4 of each four-beat count on the chorus parts.  If the music has other parts to the song, get creative and make up a pattern on your instrument. Have

fun!
