We begin each lesson every day reading a version from a children's Bible of the Battle of Jericho. Then I try to have a small activity daily for reinforcement. I also try to have a main theme for them to learn or explore.
This unit we learned about instruments to go along with blowing horns to knock wall over. They also loved knocking over the block walls I built.
Along with the instrument theme, we read Pots and Pans. They enjoyed using kitchen items to make music!
We participated in the Mommy's and Me class at the library and enjoyed playing with bells!
We also played with kinder music instruments that were bought at a yard sale along with other rattles. We read "How Big is Baby Elmo" because of the part where it says he's in a band. That is by far the boys' favorite book!
Eventually, I broke out my old keyboard and let them explore the music and keys on it. They loved it!
