Questions/instructions:

Let’s imagine that a school is going to have a fun day.

The children at the school have made up some advertisements for the radio, because they
want lots of people to come along. They want the ads to sound bright, and to have lively
tunes to go with the words.

Let’s listen to an advertisement that one of the children has made up.

Click the Fun Day button to start the video.

Here are the words that have been written for the ad.

Show word chart, and read the text.

The children like the words in this ad, but they want to put some different music to them
— music that would make the words sound bright and lively so that people will enjoy
listening to the ad.

Place chime bars in front of student and give them the beater.

I want you to make up some bright and lively music to go with the words, using these chime
bars. You can experiment and practise, and when you are ready I would like you to do your
fun day ad for me to listen to.

Remember, it needs to sound bright and lively. You need to say or sing the words along with your tune or rhythm.

You can practise now, then play it to me when you are ready.

Allow 2–3 minutes for practice. The student may feel more at ease if the teacher temporarily withdraws.

Now I would like you to play and sing your ad to me a couple of times.

Student performs ad, and their efforts are acknowledged by the teacher.
