Repeat short, easy rhythmic and melodic phrases by singing back from memory
Building on the musical skills, knowledge and understanding acquired in Programme of Study 1, extend the range of pieces to be taught, ensuring that the chosen repertoire relates to the full range of learning objectives.
Use the holistic approach to teaching and learning.
Demonstrate different ways of interpreting the music and encourage learners to apply their own creative ideas, e.g. using ideas in the song to generate their own compositions.
Choose a wide range of repertoire that:
- consolidates and extends technical skills and knowledge
- uses simple key signatures
- possibly includes compound time
- includes a larger variety of rhythmic groupings
- includes a more extended pitch range
Ask learners to sing songs that have simple independent accompaniments, e.g. folk-songs.
Sections of any song where the accompaniment is independent of the melody may need more practice.
Show learners how to practise their songs and make improvements.
