Description

Music Around the World Lessons and Activities

Take your students on a journey through the world with this Elementary World Music Unit!

With over 50 pages full of traditional songs from 12 countries your students will gain a deeper understanding of cultural identity and tolerance. This 50+ page binder will last you 36 weeks if you teach one song every three weeks (this is how I teach the content).

A World Music Tour That is Different than the Rest

What sets this product apart is that the majority of the featured music and games are typically absent from other World Music Units. Each sheet music is accompanied by English translations, themed games, and dance. The slides are filled with vibrant colors and cool illustrations to make things fun for kids.

A flexible musical game plan that is suitable for grades 3 through 7, kids will love humming and dancing to melodies from around the world. Whether it's clapping to Tue Tue or doing their best troika dance while singing Sleigh Ride, this unit builds a sense of wonder and appreciation for cultures from around the world. What a fun way to teach empathy!

Why This Product?

Easy to use: Slides are designed for projecting onto your interactive board. Instructions for all games and songs are included.

Full of content: World Music Songs and Games covers rhythm and tonal patterns, games, songs, and sheet music for unique and engaging song collections.

Inclusive education: This music lesson plan also works well for including students from Muslim and Jewish faiths.


This is an amazing resource for your elementary music classroom when you are looking to add music from around the world to your curriculum. World Music Songs and Games covers rhythm and tonal patterns, games, songs and sheet music
