Have you been asked to teach F-2 classroom music in Term Three? Not sure where to start? Check out our latest resource – Lah-Lah’s Adventures: Music for Everyone

Developed through a partnership between the ACTF and Tina Harris and Mark Harris – two of the lead creatives behind the popular children’s series – Lah-Lah’s Adventures. Music for Everyone explores the elements of music as outlined in the Australian Curriculum in a fun and accessible way.

Fundamental musical concepts including rhythm, pitch, expression, form, timbre and texture are explained for teachers in video tutorials using everyday language, while music clips from the children’s television series illustrate these concepts for students. The simple lesson plans require little preparation or prior knowledge, and are mapped to the Australian Curriculum. Additional content includes a glossary and some practical tips for drawing on existing knowledge, skills and teaching practice.

Did you use Music for Everyone in Term Two? We would love to hear your feedback!
