Yeees that‘s fine. A music teacher’s job can’t always be easy.

But maybe looking for other ways to engage with music and enjoy it help you out here. 💪

Here are some ideas that we and other music teachers are using in their music lessons.

😬Boring Christmas Songs?

Which songs can you sing with kids around Christmas?

☃️🤔
As music teachers Christmas time can be quite busy. Also many times it needs a spontaneous “can you sing some Christmas songs with the kids?”.

😍
We put together a list of 9 FUN Christmas songs. It is all songs that are not necessarily easy but which have funny lyrics or a creative song structure.

❓Do you agree with our song choices? Let us know what you sing with children to have a good time around Christmas. 😊👇

🥶Is it cold?

Winter is a great chance for us music teachers to include seasonal materials.

🎅❄️☃️
Everything that has to do with snow, Christmas or these things will stick with the students much better than songs and exercises that you can do all year.

❄️
Try these “Rhythmic Rhymes” as a change for your class and let us know how it goes. 😊

❓Are you changing your materials in winter season a bit?

This Saturday we were part of a wonderful event: The Christmas Bazaar of the Anglican Church Mallorca in Palma! 🙂

Thank you to everybody from the church who invited us and sang along with us when we brought some Christmas songs (and thank you to the kids who joined us on stage!)! Izzy Newman thanks for the great support and sharing the stage and equipment with us. 🎅

It was a lovely event with lovely people and we hope that we can repeat it again soon. 😊🎵

😅 Best Christmas song?

The most famous christmas song might actually be “Last Christmas”.

🤓
Students in every music school right now start asking their teachers: “Can we play Last Christmas?” But the melody is actually not easy to play!

❤️
For all you beginners out there (and teachers who want some good note sheets): We put together an easy step by step guide, including:
✅ Simplified melody version
✅ Real Melody version

🧑‍🏫 Teachers:
Are you a fan of this song or is it too much already? 😆

😗 is that okay?

No, it’s not! ❗️

This is not an article about “parents just dropping off kids to have some free time”.

In this post we talk about your great chance as a parent to positively influence your child’s music education - and how your role as a parent and caretaker calls for action.

👥 Parents:
What do you do to support your child?

🧑‍🏫 Teachers:
Do your students’ parents support them the way they should?

WHAT⁉️ Easy?.
Yes. And groovy and fun and so much more.

🤔
Have you heard a music teacher starting to gett all mathematical with eight notes? “They last half a beat and if you take two it’s a quarter and…”

😮
For little children that is too much info!

😊
Instead try it with activities that bring natural rhythm and that introduce these new note shapes in a fun way (eighth even have TWO shapes…).

Yip, that’s how most children (and actually also adults) learn the whole note. And that’s okay. 👍

Take it from there and learn about the shape, the rhythm and how to draw the note. For exploring this note value in a fun way you can now find 3 EASY STEPS that we put together for you as a free article. 😊
