Musical Concepts Lesson Plan: Fast and Slow

February 22, 2024 by Megan

As part of my ongoing series of preschool lesson plans focusing on particular music concepts, I introduce the “Fast and Slow” lesson plan.

 

 

 

This plan will help students:

  • Learn the concept of musical tempos
  • Feel both fast and slow pulses in music
  • Respond with creative expression to fast and slow music
  • Have fun while learning these concepts!

So if you’re looking for enjoyable and interactive activities, the Fast and Slow Preschool Lesson Plan might be the perfect resource for you! My music lesson plans last for around 30 minutes but can be customized to meet your specific requirements and schedule.

What is in the lesson plan?

  • A list of simple materials (most of which you probably already have)
  • A selection of songs to add to your playlist
  • Detailed instructions for carrying out ten dynamic activities
  • Storybook recommendations that tie into the theme of the lesson
  • Sheet music with lyrics, notations, and chord symbols
