Wee Falorie Man

This catchy little song is great for:

• Preparing and practising 6/8 metre.
• Feeling the beat in 6/8 metre.
• Working with 3 of the most common rhythms in 6/8 metre: ti-ti-ti (group of 3 quavers / eighth notes); ta-ti (crotchet, quaver / quarter note, eighth note); tum (dotted crotchet / dotted quarter note).
• Teaching the melodic element 'fa'.
• Singing around the tonic triad (s-m-d; m-d-s,)
• Working with the interval of an octave - working on finding and identifying an octave and singing it in tune.
• Singing as part of an Irish unit, or to celebrate St. Patrick's Day!
