Scottish Work Song Music Lesson

Scottish Work Song Music Lesson Plan

5th Grade

As a Cultural Arts in Education teacher who has given workshops at over 200 schools, I've taught this lesson to over 50 classes and perfected it along the way.

This lesson is so complete that you can hand it over to a substitute teacher or use all the materials and information to re-create your own lesson!

Scottish Work Song MUSIC LESSON INCLUDES:

-The Entire Lesson Plan

-The Music Education National Standards implemented

-Audio files to use in the classroom for learning, practicing and performing

-Lyrics to the Songs

-Music Score to the Songs

-Music arrangement of a Scottish work song for recorder

-Inquiry based curriculum structure suggestions used by PYP International Schools

The students gain the most insight about the elements of music when they are coming from a place of understanding about the creation process. Therefore, I create my cultural music lessons around conceptual learning.
