Lesson details

I can perform songs with two or more layers, singing my part accurately and keeping a steady pulse.

Warming up prepares us for rehearsing and performing safely and helps us do our best.
A rehearsal helps us prepare for a performance and can help us feel less nervous.
A conductor give us musical signals, to help us perform well.
An audience wants to enjoy a successful musical performance with us.

Warm up - a sequence of exercises used to prepare the mind, body and voice for singing / playing instruments
Rehearse - to practise in order to improve and prepare for performance
Perform - presenting our work in front of others
Conductor - a person who directs musicians or singers
Audience - a group of people gathered to listen and watch a live performance

If we know our songs well, we do not need to rehearse before a performance.

A rehearsal can really help to settle the nerves, helping us know what will happen and how things will feel different during the performance.

This might be a great time to let pupils be the conductor!
