Up Up In The Sky

This happy, gentle song is great for:

  • Preparing the time signature 3/4.
  • Practising the rhythmic element 'tum ti' in 3/4.
  • Singing as a unison song for junior choirs. They love the bit where they get to 'stage whisper'!
  • Discovering 'melodic sequence'. There's an example in the first line (s-m-l-s; m-d-f-m)
