Now you will become my echo. I will sing a musical phrase, and you will repeat it like an echo. And when I raise our clasped hands up, we will all loudly shout “Hurray!” Is the task clear? 1.

I was very pleased to meet you today, but our watch tells me that the time for our meeting is coming to an end. I would really like you to decorate this Christmas tree now. If you are in a bad mood right now, attach a white ball to the Christmas tree. If you are in a great mood, attach a red balloon. (children decorate the Christmas tree) I wish you all the best, my friends! In memory of our meeting, I give you this most wonderful, funny watch.

Techniques for learning a song in a music lesson

The choice of song to learn in a music lesson is not arbitrary. A school song must meet certain requirements determined by the level of vocal training of students. Songs for younger schoolchildren are especially carefully selected.

Their form should be extremely concise, limited to one period. The melody is emphatically expressive, bright, melodious, with a clearly drawn melodic pattern. The rhythm is simple, alternating no more than three types of durations. In this case, the vocal performance should be natural and clear, the tone should be diatonic, the range should be no more than an octave. These criteria are usually met by folk songs, the high artistry of which is undeniable. The melodies of folk songs are well perceived and absorbed by children.

It would not be amiss to say here that if the students liked the song, then difficulties in learning it are easier to overcome. Children react very sensitively to the melody and lyrics of a song, to its melody, expressiveness, and general emotional mood.

Increasing the complexity of the vocal repertoire is permissible only after students learn to easily cope with the tasks set at the initial stage: purity of intonation, correct tempo rhythm, sense of dynamics, etc. But even after complicating the repertoire for learning, one must remember the basic requirements for school songs. They should captivate children with their melody and lyrics.

So, work on the song began. The process of learning a song is quite complex; it consists of repeated repetitions of phrases, verses, and choruses with students. At the same time, time is limited to academic hours and other thematic planning points. In such conditions, the method of working on a song using educational role-playing games and musical tasks based on the material of the song being learned is very productive. In this case, the most important tasks are the correct pitch intonation of the melody, clarity of rhythm, freedom of breathing, ease of sound formation, expressiveness of dynamics and correct articulation.

Simple one-voice choruses of folk songs are usually learned in their entirety, without breaking them up into phrases.

The teacher performs the chant or phrase of the song 2–3 times. The same material is then played on the instrument at a slow tempo. After this, the children are invited to sing the fragment they heard on their own.

The first sound is the most difficult for children, so it is necessary to help students sing it with an instrument or voice with intonation correctness and pitch accuracy. There is no need to rely on children’s ear for music and memory; in most of them they are poorly developed and unstable. Therefore, it is always necessary to give students a point of support, the right mood, by singing or playing on an instrument the fragments of the song they are learning together with the children.

Do not forget that vocal tasks must constantly change during repeated repetitions of phrases, fragments, and verses. This switching of attention from task to task instead of tedious and not always pleasant mechanical repetitions will make the process of unlearning an exciting game.

Each task proposed by the teacher must be justified, based on deep preliminary analytical work on the work. The teacher must immediately analyze the children’s singing, snatch distortions and shortcomings from the sounding material, and the next task is to correct or completely eliminate them. This means that in the vocal and technical arsenal of a music teacher there must be all sorts of techniques, methods, so-called “tricks” to eliminate the shortcomings of the individual and group sound of a song.

It is best to consolidate the material learned by schoolchildren (phrases, verses, choruses) in small groups of 5-6 people, giving others the opportunity to listen and evaluate the singing of their classmates. Then the composition of the groups is changed in such a way that all students in the class go through the task of consolidating the learned material. Children who sing poorly should be given the opportunity to sing the consolidation task several times, including them in different singing groups.

When learning a song, you can and even should practice using musical notation. In my lessons, I give children the opportunity to follow the musical text while singing using the Finale computer program. This multifunctional music editor allows you to use a cursor moving over the notes to create an extraordinary educational effect, built according to the scheme: “hear - see - sing - remember”.
