Students should stand and demonstrate good singing posture. Play the video and check for participation.

3. Repertoire

This is a new song this week, so they are still learning. For each video, do the following:
  1. Play and students follow along silently.
  2. Play and students hum.
  3. Play and students sing on the syllable "doo".
  4. Play and students sing the words. 
Repeat this process for each section. Other students should be at volume level 1 (quiet). Please write down any students who are misbehaving. Seating charts are in the sub binder on my desk.
