This guided lesson walks students in grades K–2 through playing “Star Light, Star Bright” on Orff instruments, one step at a time. Students warm up their voices, speak the rhythm, add body percussion, sing from iconic notation, practice with their mallets, and then play along with the recording. It works well if you’re new to teaching mallet instruments or want a clear sequence to follow.

      Thanks for the review!

  2. Andrea H. –

    Easy to understand and I liked that I was able to get my students using BOTH HANDS!! They like to just use one hand and that’s not going to work when we move on to more difficult music. Great resource, even for the big kids!!
