Holiday Group Lesson PlanYour group lesson or party might be anywhere from 40 minutes to 1.5 hours! In the download that you can get here, I’ve included a number of detailed plans for different lesson lengths.

  1. Ice Breaker Game (5-10 minutes)
  2. Holiday Rhythm Cup Explorations (20-30 minutes)
  3. Snacks (15 minutes)
  4. Name That Holiday Tune (This is your “extra game.” You may not need it and you might want to even play it during your snack time. But I promise, Holiday Rhythm Cup Explorations will be soooo fun, that I doubt you’ll need this one!) Feel free to have your students play their pieces for this one or just play from the list of pieces in the free game.

Try overlapping group lessons

Some of the BEST parties I’ve thrown have been ones where I have two groups that overlap, so we put snacks at the end of one group and at the beginning of the next group. So that schedule might look something like this:

4:00 – Group 1
4:40 – Group 2 comes and we have snacks
5:00 – Group 1 leaves and group 2 stays for the activities
5:40 – Group 2 leaves

Now get the FREE holiday music lesson plan + 2 free games!
