Summertime Rocks

It couldn't get any simpler than this halftime rock song. Focusing mostly on the rhythm section (electric guitars, basses, and drums), the song allows your students to either sing the lyrics as written or come up with their own sounds, melodies, lyrics, and so on. The two parts are basic and make even your older boys want to participate with nonsense syllables and easy rhythms and melodies.

Your students may wish to listen to the instrumental only recording to hear all the cool things going on before they attempt to add their own personal touches. By all means, allow them to improvise (D dorian) on any instrument or vocally.

As far as movement is concerned, we are betting they will be adding their own long before you bring up the subject. (from Music K-8, Vol. 8, No. 5)
