Preschool Music Lesson Denise Gagne

Alright, now this is Mrs. Denise. I see she's videotaping. I'm videotaping so I can remember what I'm talking about. And then when other teachers want to see how to do a song or how to do a game, then I'll have a video that I can show them. Now, Mrs. Denise, Mr. Fred has gone home sick. He is not feeling well. Now, I can stay here or I can run over and just give her a hand cleaning. You give her a hand cleaning and if we need some help, who's a really responsible child that can go over and help? Me! I would say Eric. Okay, Eric, if I need help, you can go over to the next room and ask for help. Okay, and I will just clean the bathroom. But you know what? I don't think we're going to need any help because you're an awesome, awesome class. I brought in a new instrument today. These are my egg shakers and I made them. Sometimes they're called rattles.

Yeah, because we started already, but you guys are getting really good at singing this song. Yes. I'm going to get to the first one. Oh, I can see you really good. If I can see you, then I know you can see me. But if Liam and Malcolm snuggle back a little bit, then you'll be able to see better. That would be helpful. Thank you very much. Yes.

Okay, I brought in these eggs. I brought one that's wrapped in tinfoil. And I did that because sometimes when I make potatoes, I wrap them in tinfoil and I put them in the oven to bake. Have any of you had baked potatoes like that? No. Nobody had baked potatoes. Okay, let's pretend everybody's got a potato in their hand and we're going to count with those potatoes. One potato, two potato, three potato, four. Five potato, six potato, seven potato, four. Eight potato, nine potato, here comes number ten. Hot potato, hot potato, do it all again.

Okay, I'm going to give off the eggs and do you remember what we do when I give out instruments? We put them on the You put them on the floor and they don't touch. Everybody has their instruments and then it's fair because everybody gets to play them at the same time. Just like when you're at a restaurant and everybody waits until the last person has their dinner and then, oh, don't forget, don't pick them up yet. I want the blue one. Well, you know what, you're lucky because there's three blue ones coming. Can I have the orange one? Ready? There you go. Pick up those eggs. Pick up the eggs.

Can you stand up in a circle? Okay, stand up. Stand up and let's hold hands. Let's hold hands. I'll hold your hand. No. Please, it isn't nice to say no to someone. When they invite you to hold hands it's nice to say yes. Okay, bounce hands. Riding the roller coaster at the county fair. Riding the roller coaster up in the air. Hold hands, wave and play. Up in the air, waiting, waiting. Oh, sit down. You may not hold on hands like that, Liam. Liam, that's dangerous. You pull those other two boys down. Sit down where you are. That's dangerous when you do that. We can't play standing up games if you're not going to behave in a nice way. Okay, do it this way. Scarlett, can you find your place again? There's a spot right there. There's a spot right there for Scarlett. Riding the rollercoaster at the county fair. Have any of you been on a rollercoaster before? No! Show how the rollercoaster goes. I've been on one. Shh! Riding the rollercoaster at the county fair. Riding the rollercoaster up in the air. Liam, back to your spot. Waving up so high and going down so low. Riding the rollercoaster it's fun, you know. But if somebody's going to pull hard on the other hands we cannot do it. So Liam, can you do this the nice way? Are you sure? Okay, stand up. Everybody has to be really, really nice before we sit back down. Stay here. Riding the rollercoaster at the county fair. Riding the rollercoaster up in the air. Waving at the top and going down so low. Riding the rollercoaster it's fun, you know. Up, up, up, so high. Going down so low. Up, up, up, so high. Going down so low. And now we can sit down. Now we can sit down. I brought these. It's a bell set. But I can take the bells out of here. So I'm going to take two bells out. And I'm going to play a song. I need a helper. Angelina, would you stand up and hold this bell? Can you stand up and hold that bell? Angelina is going to be my high note. Lincoln is going to be my low note. Can you sit down on here? Sit down and you hold this note. So Angelina, come on over here. You hold this note way up high. So we have a high note and a low note. And I'm going to play a song that you might remember. I'll start again. One, two, hide my shoe. Three, four, jump out the door. Six, pick up sticks. Seven, eight, lay down straight. Nine, ten, a beat. I'm supposed to play the high note and I'm supposed to play the low note. Do you think you know? Can you point to Angelina or to Lincoln and show me which note to play? That's why Leah needs to stay sitting. Can you go back to your places in the circle? Sorry to let you go back. Okay, let's finish. Five, six, pick up sticks. Ready? Point to Angelina first. Five, pick up sticks. Six, pick up sticks. Can you sit right there, please? Okay, we're going to put bells away and you can sit down. Thank you for helping. Can you show me with your hands high and low sounds? Can you sit down, Lincoln? Scarlett, can you sit in your place? Thank you. One, two, tell my shoes three, four, shut the door. Oh, my goodness. Can you sit down, Lincoln? Then everybody can see better. You're right. Okay, let's sit down, but we'll do it with our arms. Scarlett, you need to stay in your place, please. Scarlett, you're going to need to stay in your place because when you sit in front of Madison, Madison can't see. Well, we've got other things to do today, but I wanted to practice high and low notes. Scarlett, you're not helping here. What have we got next? We've got open, shut. Do you remember this song from last week? Yeah. Open, shut. Give a little clap, clap, clap. This is easy. Open, shut. Give a little clap. Up, down, up. Down, down, down. Up, down.

Loud and wide, loud and wide, loud, loud. Louder, louder, louder, louder. That was pretty good. Can we stand up and let's try the up and down part with our arms. Up and down, down, up. I was in Sedona last week, and it was beautiful there. And we walked through the forest, and there was leaves falling from the trees. Have any of you seen leaves falling from the trees? No. So, I brought some scars, and I'm going to show you what I'd like us to do with the scars. Leaves are falling down, all around the town. Whirling, whirling in the wind, the leaves are falling down. And then there's a part where we get to toss the leaves up in the air and catch them. So, I'm going to give a scarf to everybody, and we're going to do the leaves up. I'll do the black one. You get what you get, and you don't get upset. You know what, we can't be fussy with the color of the scarf, because it will take too long to give out the scars. If you're joining us, you have to be appropriate. Angelina, one for you. Theo, one for you. And Cora wants pink. I don't know if I've got pink, maybe I do. Cora wants pink. And Tracyn wants yellow. Here you go, Tracyn, yellow for you. And would you like a pink? You don't take hers away, I have another one in here. And would you like a blue? Yes. That's okay, we're going to all spread out so we've got lots of room. Okay, find a space, you don't have to swish up, find a space. What color would you like? I want blue. Okay, blue it is. I got blue. Alright, I'm going to put the music on and we're going to try with those leaves. Oh, I'm going to do that. Find yourself some space, find a spot where nobody's standing. Leaves are falling down, all around the town. Burning, burning in the wind, the leaves are falling down. Toss them up. Toss, catch them. Toss, catch them. Leaves are falling down, all around the town. Burning, burning in the wind, the leaves are falling down. That's the tossing part. Toss them up. Leaves are falling down, all around the town. Burning, burning in the wind, the leaves are falling down. I want you to make a pile of leaves right here. Put all your scarves in a pile and stand back up so we've got lots of room. Find your own space. Are you making a pile in the middle? Oh no, we're making a pile in the middle. And do you know what we're going to pretend to do? We're going to pretend that we're working in the yard. So find a space, everybody put a bubble around you. Put a bubble around you so you're not right next to somebody else. Okay, have you helped your mom or your dad rake leaves up in the yard? No. No, we're not going to jump on those. Okay, so we're going to pretend to rake the leaves up. Rake the leaves up, rake the leaves for work. No chore we're not doing.
