Favorite Web Sites
http://www.musicintheclassroom.com
http://kids.niehs.nih.gov/musicchild.htm
This website is a great resource for songs in the classroom. There are easily well over 100 songs that are suitable and appropriate for elementary children. Another great aspect to this website is when you click on a song, it actually plays the music in the background so you know exactly what it should sound like.

Lot of interactive websites for kids to use. Students can tune a radio to listen to some classical music, create thier own music, and listent to and match instruments to sounds. (Creating Music and Fun With Music were two fo my favorite on this site).
The Sounds of Brazil
http://www.lessonplanspage.com/ScienceRainStick48.htm? ?
This website is a lesson plan that involves the students discovering the sites and sounds of the wonderful rain forests of Brazil, most importantly the Amazon! Students are able to create their own rain stick and mimic the sounds of the rain forests. You could also integrate the rainstorm activity into this lesson, where the students are using their hands and feet to make an interactive rainstorm!

I found this website to be helpful in giving ideas on how to teach students about jazz music and the history of it. I think it is important to expose students to different types of music as well as where music comes from. This website can also be used as an interactive website for students to discover more information on jazz music.

Integrating Music into the Elementary Classroom (with CD)
6th Edition (2004)
William M. Anderson, Joy E. Lawrence
The market-leading text for the Elementary School Music Methods course, INTEGRATING MUSIC IN THE ELEMENTARY CLASSROOM boasts an author team who helped set the national standards for teaching music in elementary schools. The first to emphasize the theme of integrating music throughout the school day, Anderson and Lawrence show future educators how to make music an effective part of the entire elementary curriculum.
The text introduces the songs, instruments, sources of age-appropriate music, and methods of making music in a multicultural environment--making the text perfect for students with no prior knowledge of the fundamentals of music. With easy-to-use techniques for teaching young children how to sing, play instruments, move to music, create music, listen to music, and understand music, this text relates music to all subject areas. Notably, the authors provide sample lesson plans for kindergarten through grade six, along with more than 150 songs from different cultures and historical periods.
