Keeping the beat is an important skill for students to practice as they become musicians. 1st graders started the year off with the song "William He Had Seven Sons." We came up with steady beat motions to represent the things the sons did, and each student got a turn to strum the steady beat on the Autoharp!
Can your child sing you this song? The words are:
William he had seven sons,
Seven sons, seven sons.
William he had seven sons,
And this is what they did.
