Activities in this teaching pack include display posters to practise singing lines from different songs using low and high pitches and a set of cards to play and perform melodies for lines from a song about working on board a ship using high and low pitches.

The interactive presentation can be used to explore how to sing and play sea shanty songs about working on board a ship using high and low pitches.

This lesson is part of a music scheme of work to get the children to select, compose and play some of the different sounds using high and low pitches that can be made by ships and boats when at sea and in harbours. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
