To make sure students understand what to do, we often match one or two together.<br />2. After the students match all of the pairs, they begin practicing the pairs on the recorder (yes, it is loud).<br />3. When everyone has finished matching, I play one of the patterns on the recorder and the students must identify it. Then, we all play it together.<br />4. I also let students play patterns alone for the class and we identify what was played (just like step 3, only students lead). They love this.<br /><br />I feel when using these folders in stations, the students lose the ear-training and solo experience.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02311228033530964858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6985063637757133138.post-62704767863025942472013-07-14T13:37:04.453-07:002013-07-14T13:37:04.453-07:00With your folder games, do you use them in station...With your folder games, do you use them in stations? Or are you passing the same game out to the entire class and everyone is doing them at the same time?
