Easter

The song "Easter" works well for teaching the rhythmic element "tum ti" (dotted crotchet quaver) as there are two clear examples with "tas" (crotchets) either side of this rhythm.
The melodic element "ti" can be prepared and practised with this song as it is only sung in the context of steps.
