Lizeth Gil- February 13^th, 2020

“I Know” Statement:

• I know how to keep a steady beat.

“I Can” Statement:

• I can sing a song in Spanish.

Materials:

• Laptop, phone, Baritone Ukulele, “Un elefante” by Claudina de Ferrari

Process:

1. Question for the beginning

• This song that I am going to sing is very special, listen to it and see what is so special about it (it is in Spanish)

2. Sing it for the first time and follow up on the question I asked
3. Ask another question

• So now we know that this song is in Spanish, this song is about someone, who is this song about?

4. Sing it again and follow up on the question that I asked
5. Explain to the students what the song is about since they do not know Spanish
6. I will sing it again and the students will tap their legs

• This will allow them to keep a steady beat and listen to the song once more

7. We will echo two measures at a time (My turn, Your turn)

• The students will still be tapping their legs while echo singing
• I will point at myself when it is my turn and at the students when it is their turn

8. We will echo one phrase at a time (My turn, Your turn)

• The students will still be tapping their legs while echo singing
• I will point at myself when it is my turn and at the students when it is their turn

9. Let’s try the whole song now

• The students will still be tapping their legs while singing

10. We will sing the whole song again and I will play Ukulele

• Instead of the students tapping their legs with both their hands, the students will be tapping the floor one hand at a time

11. We are going to try the song one more time with movements and I will be playing Ukulele

• The students will think about how elephants move
• The students will pick their own movements to do while singing

Assessment Statement:

I will be listening to see if the students can sing the words.
