You’re here because you’re going to sing!

 

Here is a suggested approach for using the resources on this website.

You may want to reorder and mix up the various elements to suit your students,

children and learning situation.

​

1. Start your singing session with Holly’s Warm-up for your voices and bodies.

2. Choose the Song you want to sing.

3. Read the Story from Holly & Kevin aloud to your students.

4. Watch the Live Concert Video with the Wilds Band and children's choirs performing the song and doing actions; OR watch the Performance Video; read and sing along with the lyrics on screen.

5. Play the Teaching Video, listen to the lyrics being spoken, then learn the melody by echo-singing each phrase.

6. Play the Live Concert Video or Performance Video again, and sing the whole song through.

7. Watch the Action Video and learn the actions; they can help you memorize the lyrics.

8. Check out the Activity Videos that Tom leads; they are fun musical & physical games to intersperse with songs.

9. Watch the Voices Of Nature Rocks! Episode that is connected to the song you’re learning; it gives an overview of the ecological science behind the song lyrics.

10. Check out the Teacher Handbooks available for purchase. They provide curriculum-linked activities in science, social                studies, language arts and other subjects, along with beautiful black line illustrations.

​

Once you have one or two songs under your belt and you’ve learned the lyrics and actions, you can create your own singing sessions. Sing a song. Do an Activity. Learn a new song. Do another Activity. Sing another song. Voila!

You’re Singing Out For The Earth!
