    Grade Three Unit Plan

    Joy and Winter Celebrations December 2016 8 classes

    Generative Topic: As students near the excitement of the winter celebrations


    and winter break, we will likely be singing some songs that are familiar to the
    students. This provides a wonderful opportunity to explore phrases, phrase
    length, and put a label on something they have likely been aware of for a long
    time. We will revisit all of the skills learned earlier in the year and focus our
    skills on to establishing repertoire that can be shared.
