TRANSCRIPT
Wed 8:45 AM SINGIN' SHACHARIT CIRCLETIME
Rm 2048 Emily Aronoff Teck
This experiential workshop will model songs and strategies to engage young children with the Shacharit liturgy and themes inspired by that liturgy. Participants will be asked to discover their inner child as we pray, sing, dance, move and learn together. The focus of the workshop will be employing participants with transferable skills so that they can implement these musical, prayerful experiences with children in classroom or morning "Tot Shabbat" settings.
Singin’ Circletime Shacharit will expose young children to the concepts and ideas that are foundational to an understanding of a Jewish prayer service. A planned, guided set of experiences organized around listening, singing, moving, breathing and learning with the following tunes that will transmit knowledge of Judaism to the student through music. This experience is a piece of a foundation for young children or a supplement to other prayer experiences for older community members

What do you want your children to know about Prayer?
Goals
To utilize music as a tool to teach Jewish values, prayer and concepts in Early Childhood environments.
To empower all educators with the tools necessary to access and engage with Jewish music.
To provide multi modal learning Jewish music learning experiences that will empower young students to engage with their Judaism.
Outcomes
Students will be able to retain basic facts about key Jewish liturgical prayers and concepts
Students will build positive associations with Judaic learning
Students will have the ability to engage with their families through prayer and music
Valuable Jewish music transmits information and
culture simultaneously Musical elements in a single piece has
the ability to be developmentally appropriate for a wide range of ages and abilities, allowing children and their families to engage meaningfully together
Technology allows the easy and enjoyable sharing of the work of students with their community
Jewish music learning is foundational to future prayer experiences
Students will…
sing a repertoire of Jewish songs and prayers to display confidence, expression and an awareness of musical elements such as pitch and rhythm
Sing alone and with others Articulate, when prompted, basic Jewish concepts and ideas
embedded within the Jewish morning service explore vocal sounds, use the voice to imitate sounds and
communicate feelings, develop language and speech through new vocabulary acquisition in song lyrics
sing in unison simple songs of an appropriate pitch range in their entirety and from memory
explore and make choices about sound express the meaning of songs through movement, art and
discussion explore concepts such as pitch, rhythm, tempo, duration and
dynamics through the use of instruments and utilization of voice
Curriculum experts Wiggins and McTighe created this visual to illustrate their curricular approach “Learning by Design” This is additionally helpful because it provide clear levels of modifications for older students or student who use the same songs and prayers for multiple years.
