Grade 1 Music Lessons for the FULL YEAR – Plan, Activities & Worksheets

If you’re teaching grade 1 music in Ontario (or elsewhere) and you’re NOT a specialist, these music lessons are the only resource you need. Music by Month lesson plans were created so that “regular teachers” can teach music like rock stars.

This is a full year elementary music curriculum bundle complete with lesson plans, worksheets, presentation files, sound clips and teacher explanations. So easy a sub can do it – but such high quality you’ll be proud to teach it yourself.

Grade 1 Music Lessons Included:

• September – Beat vs Rhythm
• October – Quarter Notes & Eighth Notes
• November – High, Low, & Melodic Contour
• Dec/Jan – Pitch – Mi, So, La, & Melodic Contour
• February – Loud & Soft Dynamics
• March – Accents, Staccato & Legato Sounds
• April – Timbre & Vocal Quality, Percussion
• May – Texture & Form, Echo, Call & Answer
• June – End of Year Review

Each Music-By-Month music lessons package includes:

• a 4 lesson progression (approx. 30 min in length) with EVERYTHING YOU NEED to teach the lessons effectively
• Clear, concise instructions – no long “teacher’s college” style plans to wade through!
• Printable instructional materials
• A Powerpoint presentation file for easy delivery of lessons (individual sound files of the musical examples are included so you can easily import it into Google Slides if desired)
• Assessment suggestions

Note: Lesson plans are not heavily themed so they can be used “off-time”. These grade 1 music lesson plans are designed to be sequential from month to month. While originally designed for the Ontario curriculum, these lessons will meet most other music curriculum guidelines.
