Featured Around the Piano Song for October and November “Dreams”
DREAMS
What is awesome about you? Do you feel free to dream your dreams? What is your path?
What does your perfect world look like?
Extension
DREAMS is an up-tempo song that works very well with featured singers (solos, duets, small groups). I recommend teaching by rote on this one. Let your students get really comfortable with singing a verse and the chorus with good volume and lots of energy. Point out the rhyme scheme in the verses. The second line should rhyme with “there.” When you are sure everyone understands the meaning of the song and the rhyme scheme send them off to write their own verses. You can spend team time on this, or you can let your students know that if they come up with a verse, you will all learn it the next time you sing DREAMS together.
