说明

An introduction activity to build student focus and the class ensemble. It can also be used to introduce other musical concepts like rhythm and notes.

路线

• First, practice the activity steps below one by one with each student.
  • Have students stand (or sit) in a comfortable circle.
  • “Today we’re going to Pass a Clap.” Turn to the first student on your left in the circle: “Let’s see if you and I can clap together once at the same time. We’ll take a deep breath in and open our arms, and then let our breath out and bring our hands in to try to clap together.”
  • Do this one by one—go around the circle and clap hands once together with each student.
• “Now let’s Pass a Clap around the whole circle. This means you’ll be clapping two times: once with the person on your right and then, when you “pass” it, once with the person on your left. I’ll start. Ready?”
• Pause for Reflection and build criteria for success after you pass it around the circle once.
  • Have students comment on how well they did and what they could do better.
  • 鼓励眼神交流。
  • 集思广益，您可以在没有声音的情况下相互发送信号以共同完成。
  • A predictable rhythm might emerge. Notice that and talk about rhythm.
  • Notice the student who wasn’t ready and their partner who noticed that and waited until they were.
• Then repeat for as many times as you would like, or until the group feels focused and successful.
• Variations: You can adapt it to pass anything:
  • Pass a phrase.
  • Pass a gesture.
  • Pass a handshake.
  • Pass a material. (This can be a great way to introduce new materials to the class.)
  • Pass a note–ascending and descending. Pass solfège (Do-re-mi, etc.).
  • Pass a salutation: “Hello,” “Take Care,” “So Long.” Get suggestions.
  • 传递一个词汇单词等。
