Help needed for a Y4 music lesson tomorrow!

[doglover]

As a PPA cover teacher, I've just been told that I've got to teach music to a Y4 class tomorrow ......... horrors!! They're a 'challenging' bunch (ie behaviour is a REAL issue!!) and everyone dreads having them. I did a lesson with them a few weeks ago getting them to draw/paint whilst listening to a couple of contrasting pieces of music - they enjoyed this and were relatively calm! I don't have easy access to instruments during the hour and am struggling to think of activities that I can cope with with this difficult group. Hope someone can help! TIA

Caveat - I am not a teacher.

My son is Y4 and interested in music. One thing I have done with him before is to take the same song or instrument and look at how different bands / musicians have used it.

e.g. we compared Frank Sinatra's - My Way with Sid Vicious's etc
Trumpet Voluntary with Louis Armstrong etc.

If you have access to show video my son is also interested in how music is used in film (Ride of the Valkyries in Apocalypse Now caught his attention!)

Thanks for the help. Good ideas - love the film idea.
