Life Song: A Perfect Free Lesson Plan for Teachers

Music Puts Us (And Students) in Good Moods

And that’s why we can leverage it for learning in our classrooms!

I created an activity I call “Life Song”
It is a ton of fun and I have learned SO much from my students from the lesson.

Not only that, kids LOVE it.

They are:
Engaged.
Interested.
Communicative.

When can you use it?
This is PERFECT for:

– A fun 5-minute starter to your class- listen to 1-song each day and have students explain their choice to the rest of the class
– Creating a classroom playlist that you know kids will love!
– An SEL activity to learn more about kids on a deeper life level
– A curricular component for reading, English, or other communication classes

Attached below is the file you can access
I am sending you the exact document I used with my middle school and high school students, of course, you can change it to fit the needs of your kids’ age and ability.

Here is a PDF digital copy for you.

My life song may or may not be Whitney Houston’s Dance with Somebody
(I’m only partially kidding)

I hope you enjoy this engaging lesson!

Get ready for some audio awesome with students!
