1
Activ-panel or smart board
Laptop or computer to play Powerpoint presentation Sol-Mi with the Bumble Bees (See Resource File)
IPod and speakers or stereo system to play Spotlight on Music recording found in
grade 1 page T-250, CD 11:24 (optional)
When using Sol-Mi with the Bumble Bees PowerPoint (Resource File) slides 6, 7 & 10, do not use slide show mode for students cannot move Bee icons, stick icons and notes. They can’t be dragged. So I just use the PowerPoint as is and students can drag bees to the beat boxes. Once an icon or note is dragged to the beat box it can’t be dragged back. If there needs to be a correction after an icon or note is dragged to the box, then use the back arrow button to go back.
