Attention Pre-k and Kindergarten Educators: The Ultimate Beach-Themed Music Lesson Plan! Are you searching for music resources to captivate your students with a beach or ocean theme? Look no further! This comprehensive music lesson plan is designed with your needs in mind, packed with fun and interactive musical activities that will transport your students to the beach.

It was designed for PreK and kindergarten-aged kids, but lower elementary kids love these activities too!

My musical lesson plans teach basic musical concepts such as rhythm, singing, and movement, but are also great for developing coordination, gross and fine motor skills, and literacy skills. These lesson plans can be used as is or modified as needed, for toddlers, preschoolers, early elementary (kindergarten, first and second grade), and homeschool co-ops.

This easy-to-teach lesson plan requires simple materials - generally egg shakers, scarves, a Bluetooth speaker, and an optional piano, keyboard, ukulele, or guitar. All songs can also be sung a cappella if you don't play an instrument. You'll get activities themed for the lesson plan and instructions on how they should be performed, a complete list of songs to add to your playlist and any sheet music needed, complete with chords and notation. You can teach this lesson plan without an extensive musical background yourself!
