Chords
Use our chordal lesson plans to harmonzie a song. Children may add to the performance by improvising on non-pitched percussion. Teaching chords is easily accomplished using our search options for music with two through seven chords. Use in conjunction with our colored bands to make learning easier, available in Malmark, Inc.'s online store.
Each Chord lesson plan includes the melody of the song with the harmonic outline. For older students, the text of the song is printed with the color-coded chords included above so that the appropriate chord can be rung while singing the text. For those who are not yet literate, we suggest that great success will be met when the chord chart is used so that the teacher may point to the appropriate chord tracking for the students in tempo and rhythm. Both of these methods can be presented through a computer-generated slideshow presentation or interactive whiteboard.
