I don't know about your students, but mine love composing, so I try to incorporate a composing activity as much as possible in my private lessons. Today I'm sharing a new composing activity just in time for Thanksgiving! "I am Thankful" gives your pre-reading students the opportunity to think about what they're grateful for and express it in song.
Usually for composing activities I write the lyrics and choose the rhythms for my students then they plug in the notes/finger numbers then play the song. This composing activity is special because students get to write what they're thankful for and figure out the rhythms to go with it! Note: There are guide notes in some measures - which can easily be changed - and others are left blank so your students can create their own rhythm to match their lyrics. This activity will be FREE for a limited time on my TpT Store and my newly opened TopMusicMarketplace Store! Looking for more Thanksgiving activities for your lessons or music classroom? I created a Pinterest Board with many other games, songs and activities!
