Rhythm videos



Hi!
I mainly look for activities on YouTube and Pinterest. There are videos with usefull ideas easy to adapt for your CLIL lessons.
This is one of my favourite activities to do with my 11-year-old students: rhythm with ordinary objects (usually, chopsticks and plastic caps). In one of these videos, they are reinforcing the rhythmicpattern with spoken words (in this case, in Spanish, but you can use words in English).

And this is my favourite one. With my 7 and 8-year-old students, we create our own musical instruments with recycled materials. To boost their creativity, I usually show them this video, where Les Luthiers mke a sort of xylophone out of rubber balls. The musical bit starts at 1:30.

Penny Lane

Activity shared by M.Consuelo Manchado. My project is a mural compound by different collages that students would do in teams. Those works represent all the scenes depicted in the song "Penny Lane", by The Beatles. A label with the extract of the lyrics would be displayed as well. This project should be devoloped both in the English and Art lessons, as there are some grammar structures to be taught and research to be done (apart from activities related to the lyrics itself). I think this song provides a good opportunity to learn some things about other cutures (in this case, the Brithish culture). It would be interesting to compare and contrast different features in our towns and theirs. For example, means of transport (the double-decker bus), red post boxes, police officers' helmet and uniform, how the queu at the bus stop... So many differences! Apart from that, in the project students will learn about the band itself, their members. It would be a good start...
