skills.

Week 1: Introduction to the Holiday Concert


 Objective: Students will be introduced to the concert's theme and
start learning music.
 Activities:
o Icebreaker Activity: Discuss holiday traditions and songs
students are familiar with.
o Introduce the Concert Theme: Briefly talk about the concert
and the songs to be performed.
o Song Selection: Choose one song from between 3-5 songs for
the concert. This could include classic holiday songs like "Jingle
Bells," "Silent Night," "We Wish You a Merry Christmas," and a
couple of multicultural or non-religious songs to represent
diversity.
o Warm-up: Start with basic vocal warm-ups to help students
focus on proper breathing and diction.

(solo, chorus, instrumental).

and learn parts.

instruments (e.g., bells, tambourines, small percussion),
introduce them to some songs.
o Group Practice: Break the class into small groups (solos, duets,
chorus). Have students practice their sections.
o Whole Class Practice: All students sing together. Give
feedback on pitch, timing, and energy.
o
o Stage Directions: Practice basic stage presence—how to stand,
how to address the audience, and when to clap.
Homework: Practice the first song and memorize the lyrics.

the stage, and how they will interact during the performance.
