Master class “Kaleidoscope of New Year’s games”

Progress of the master class.

Good afternoon, dear colleagues and leaders of school government! Today I would like to present some practical aspects of my experience on the topic: “Kaleidoscope of New Year's games.”
- The purpose of the master class is to demonstrate and master games and game exercises,
which will help you effectively develop communication and social skills in schoolchildren during the New Year holidays.
- Today we will talk to you about mass music and round dance games in a circle and about New Year's games with the audience.
- On the eve of the New Year holidays, when there will be New Year's events in order to have fun and not harm your health, I want to talk about mass musical games in a circle and playful round dances. Musical games and round dances are faithful helpers in organizing New Year's holidays for children. They unite, bring together, and foster a sense of collectivism.
-Game round dances are a closed ring of children and characters holding hands, performing a whole range of game exercises, including music, singing, free movements, expressive reading poetry, pantomime.
- Game round dances are very diverse in their formations, but the initial form is a circle. The most common is double circle-circle in a circle. Let's form an outer and inner circle and face each other. The number of people in the inner circle must be equal to the number of people in the outer circle. Such round dances are held to get acquainted with big amount children.
Music sounds - you walk clockwise, as soon as the music stops sounding, you stop opposite each other, pronounce words accompanied by movements.
Hello Friend! (we shake hands)
What is your name? (put hand on shoulder)
Where have you been? (tugged her partner's ear)
I missed? (put your hand to your heart)
You came? (hands to the side)
Fine! (hug)
- We repeat this several times.
The game is being played.
- Next music game in double circle. Music sounds - you walk clockwise, as soon as the music stops sounding, you stop opposite each other and say your name or New Year's wishes. Since we have already met, let's tell each other a New Year's wish.
The game is being played.
- We remain in our places. Another musical game in a circle.
-Let's try to dance game round dances, in which the tempo of the music and the speed of movements gradually increase. Your task is to listen to the music and repeat the movements. Let's say the words and learn the movements.
Performance of musical New Year's round dances:
1. "We'll hang the balloons."
Lyrics of the song.
We will hang the balls, (connect fingers one by one to form circles)
And then the flashlights, (flashlights)
And then more rain (we draw the index fingers from top to bottom)
Let's not forget about snowflakes. (open palms)
Gilded fish, (two palms together)
Cheerful lights (sun)
Let's sketch out the tinsel (smooth hand movements in turn)
We continue the game. (clap our hands)
2. Second round dance. “We shovel snow with our hands...”
Lyrics of the song.
We rake the snow with our hands: we sculpt it, we sculpt it into a big lump.
And once again we rake it up: we sculpt, we sculpt into another lump.
We sculpt arms, sculpt legs to run along the path.
We sculpt eyes, sculpt eyebrows and a long nose with carrots.
3. Third round dance. "We'll go left now..."
Lyrics of the song.
We'll go right first one, two, three
Now let's go left one, two, three
Let's quickly get ready for the Christmas tree one, two, three
Let's disperse just as quickly, one, two, three
We'll sit down quietly one, two, three
And let's stand up slightly one, two, three
Dance our feet one, two, three
And clap your hands one, two, three
Musical games in a circle are a must. Despite their apparent simplicity and the main game point, their importance is difficult to overestimate. They develop a sense of rhythm and ear for music, help improve motor skills, and facilitate the adaptation process: they make children feel good about each other, liberate them, teach them to act together and cooperate.
I suggest you play. I will demonstrate the movements to the music, and you repeat after me.
Lyrics:
We took a large handful of snow (take a handful)
And they began to form lumps. (make lumps)
Let's squeeze the snow tightly in our hands and start playing snowballs!!! (compact the lumps, throw)

We laughed, everyone enjoyed it.
Now let's go back.

I offer New Year's games in a circle, which are accompanied by music.

As soon as the music stops, you need to take the toy from the chair. Those who don't have enough leave. The number of toys on the table is also reduced by one. The one who takes the last toy wins.

The presenter needs to write in advance on pieces of paper various words related to winter and the New Year, for example: Christmas tree, snowflake, icicle, frost, round dance, and so on. All the leaves are put into a bag or hat and the participants, in turn, must take them out and perform a song based on the word in the leaf.

Songs must be about winter. The winner is the participant who performed songs on all the sheets of paper pulled out for himself in accordance with the terms of the competition. If there are several such participants, it’s okay, there will be several winners, because it’s a new year!

New Year's competition No. 3: Ticket

All guests should line up in two circles: a large circle - men, a small circle (inside the large one) - women. Moreover, in a small circle there should be one less participant than in a large circle.

The presenter turns on the music and the two circles begin to move in different directions. After turning off the music, men need to embrace a woman - their ticket to the next stage. Anyone who doesn’t get a “ticket” is declared a hare. For him, the remaining participants come up with a fun task that must be completed in pairs. The “Hare” chooses a participant from the small circle as his assistant. After completing the task, the game continues.

New Year's competition No. 4: Musical thoughts

For this competition, you will need pre-prepared fragments of soundtracks with various songs in accordance with the number of guests. The presenter transforms into the image of a magician and chooses an assistant. Then the presenter approaches the male guest and moves his hands above his head, the assistant at this moment turns on the phonogram, and everyone present hears the musical thoughts of the guest:

Then the presenter approaches the guest woman and, moving his hands above her head, everyone can hear the musical thoughts of this heroine:

The host performs similar magical manipulations until the guests hear the musical thoughts of everyone present at the celebration.

New Year's competition No. 5: Talented musician

The presenter builds something like an organ or xylophone on the table from empty bottles and cans. Men take a spoon or fork and take turns trying to perform something musical on this non-standard one. Women in this competition act as judges; they choose the winner whose “work” turned out to be more melodic and pleasant to the ear.

Musical competitions for the New Year can and should be very different and their number can hardly be counted. Competitions should be selected in accordance with the number and age of guests. You can come up with your own competitions, spending a little time on it. But one thing is certain: the most anticipated holiday of the year will definitely be fun and unlike any other New Year, all guests will be happy. And all this thanks to music competitions.

Watch and listen to funny and positive New Year's songs from cartoons:

Musical games for the New Year are usually associated with the theme of winter, New Year's holiday, farewell to the old year and wishes for all the very best in the new year. It can be,which can be sung in chorus at the table or made part of a fun costume greeting.

Also very popular are quizzes about songs about winter or about the symbol of the next year (for example, on the eve of 2014 - songs about horses and steeds), dramatizations of favorite New Year's songs and, of course, various musical interpretations of the song that has become the anthem of this holiday “The Little Christmas Tree Is Cold in Winter "

Proposed New Year's music games universal, suitable for a company of any age and composition.

1. Musical game "Let's portray a New Year's song"

Basically, any song can be turned into funny scene, where people will represent each object, plant, phenomenon or person mentioned in the song. Consider simple accessories that will replace players' costumes.

For the New Year, “The little Christmas tree is cold in winter” is suitable. Roles for the players: Herringbone, Winter, Beads, Cowardly Gray Bunny, Gray wolf etc. Thus, everything that is sung about in the song is depicted: if it is sung that “the beads were hung,” it means that the “Beads” will have to hang right on the neck of the “Christmas Tree.”

You can also take other New Year-themed songs, where there is a lot of action in the text.

2. New Year's competition "Musical Hat".

This is also a song competition. We put a lot of cards in a hat with individual words from New Year's songs (“icicle”, “frost”, “winter”, “Father Frost”, “Snow Maiden”, etc.). The hat goes in a circle, the music has stopped, the one from whom the hat takes out a card, reads and performs a passage of the song (or simply names it) where this word appears.

If you want this entertainment to be more dynamic, then write on the cards, not just one word, but a whole phrase, then it will be easier for the guests to remember and there will be no pauses in the game, because the main thing is to amuse, and not to test the memory of the guests

3. Musical game: New Year's "Apozh"
