A "Strategy to Teach so mi" provides a thorough approach to recognise and identify, both aurally and visually, the interval between so and mi and be able to reproduce it using handsigns, stick notation and staff notation. It can be used to prepare students to be able to read, write, perform and create using the notes "so" and "mi". "A strategy to teach so mi" is free, and for a limited time we have also provided free so mi resources listed below.
A strategy that provides a step by step method for preparing, naming and practising the melodic elements "so" and "mi".
This simple song which only uses the rhythmic elements "ta" and "ti-ti" and is ideal for preparing, making conscious and practising "so" and "mi".
"Jump High" starts with a rising minor 3rd interval, "mi-so". This is not often found in songs, making this song useful in giving students the opportunity to practise this interval in a new context.
"Clap Your Hands Melodic Contour Chart" helps visually reinforce the high and low notes in the song.
This activity asks students to re-write the song starting on a different note.
