P1 - A4
Recognise and convey in their playing simple melodic patterns, e.g. repetition of main tune
Ask learners how many phrases there are in a short piece. Where do they start and finish?
Encourage learners to match physical movements to the structure when listening to the piece, e.g. tap the pulse on their knees for the first phrase, their heads for the second phrase, etc.
Listen to other short pieces and ask learners to indicate when the main tune is repeated: count the number of times it is repeated and describe what happens in between.
There are many opportunities to use a wide range of musical styles from around the world.
