Goldilocks, Goldilocks, run away! (Play and sing several times, getting faster). Goldilocks awoke with a start! She jumped out of bed and out the window!

Then Baby Bear piped up: Somebody’s been sleeping in my bed and here she is! Mama Bear spoke next: Somebody’s been sleeping in my bed. Papa Bear spoke first: Somebody’s been sleeping in my bed. Then Baby Bear piped up: Somebody’s been sitting in my chair and they broke it to bits!įinally, they went up the stairs and saw their beds.

Mama Bear spoke next: Somebody’s been sitting in my chair. Papa Bear spoke first: Somebody’s been sitting in my chair. Then Baby Bear piped up: Somebody’s been eating my porridge and they ate it all up!! (Go crazy on the instruments on this last part.) (Tap instruments on the bold syllables, as indicated in the lines that follow.) She tried the first two beds but the Baby Bear’s bed was the one that felt just right. There was a little bed that belonged to Baby Bear. There was a medium sized bed that belonged to Mama Bear. There was a big bed that belonged to Papa Bear. Then she decided to go upstairs, where she found three beds. The Baby Bear’s chair looked just right! Except – oops! It broke apart when she sat in it! Goldilocks tried out the first two chairs but they were too big. There was a little chair that belonged to Baby Bear. There was a medium-sized chair that belonged to Mama Bear. There was a big chair that belonged to Papa Bear. In the next room, she found three chairs. Goldilocks tasted each bowl, and the littlest bowl tasted just right, so she ate it all up. There was a little bowl that belonged to Baby Bear.

There was a medium-sized bowl that belonged to Mama Bear. There was a big bowl that belonged to Papa Bear. The first thing she saw was the table, laid out with three bowls of porridge. She knocked at the door but no one was home, so she thought she’d check out this little house in the woods. While they were gone, along came a little girl named Goldilocks. One day, their breakfast porridge was too hot, so they decided to take a walk and let it cool. Once upon a time, there were three bears, Papa Bear, Mama Bear and Baby Bear.

Each part above should be played on the instruments when that character is underlined. Students can be invited to join in the repeating lines. The teacher reads or tells the story using the suggested script that follows. Mi-So-La, Mi-So-La, La-So-Mi, with the lyrics: Goldilocks, Goldilocks, Gol-di-locks. She has the same rhythm as above and her melody is: Goldilocks is represented by the glockenspiel. The rhythm is as follows (88 = paired eighths, 4 = quarter, R = quarter rest): 88-4 88-4 4 – 4 – 4 R I’ve abbreviated the story line slightly so that there’s less talking for the teacher and the kids have the maximum opportunity for playing instruments. The baby bear is represented by the highest-pitched finger cymbals and bells. Next comes Mama Bear, represented by tambourines and/or smaller drums. The drums, the lowest instrument, are for the Papa Bear. This idea is not original to me (I’ve referenced some lesson plans below), but I found a way to involve students playing different instruments and repeating lines of the story. The story of the Three Bears is a fun way to help children learn about high, medium and low pitches. Paul Galdone’s book is a great accompaniment to this musical lesson.
