Play in simple chords and make the first phrase end on the dominant chord, the second phrase end on the tonic chord, preceded by the dominant.

Cause the pupils to march to the music, to clap all the beats, to clap the strong beats only, to clap loud for the strong accents and softer for the weak accents. Call attention to the pause at the end of the first phrase and call this pause the " half-way house " or some such name,... while the last chord is the " home." Show the children how to beat time to the music, and count " one, two " as they beat time. If this exercise is properly performed the pupils will realise the beat, * accent, and the effect of phrase. The importance of insisting on and impressing phrase- divisions cannot be exaggerated, for children will. unconsciously begin to listen to music as it appears in the phrase, and not to the separate sounds that make up the phrase. Thus the music will have a certain meaning to them from the very first, and they will realise the effect of sounds in their relation- ship to the musical scheme as it is made by beat, accent, and phrase.
