What educators are saying
Great activity for practicing so mi and la that has the added buy in of being about Mariachi instruments. Students really enjoyed adding the song to the story.
This was a lot of fun! The story is really cute and there's so much you can do to spring from the book. I also enjoyed the cute little chant/steady beat/melody to say with my students. I looked the book up on YouTube and found a great read-along.
Description
Perfect for teachers honoring Hispanic Heritage Month or studying the music of Mexico, this activity includes everything you need to teach a fun lesson using J.D. Smith's beloved children's book "The Best Mariachi Band in the World."
Teach students a short song using ta/ti-ti and sol-mi, then transfer to Orff instruments to add another layer to the book.
