This material is part of the music concept-linked teaching aid series from the GoDoongDoong Symphony channel. It is a paper toy guide that shows you how to create a "Sharun" doll by cutting out a flat template and folding it into a three-dimensional figure that fits snugly on your finger.

[Recommended Lesson Flow]

Introduction (5 minutes): Begin by reviewing the quarter note (1 beat). Then, introduce a new character named "Sharun," whose head is completely white. Explain that Sharun produces a sound lasting twice as long as a quarter note. Use this opportunity to introduce the half note (2 beats) and accompany the explanation with a video.

Development (25 minutes): Follow the video step-by-step to assemble the puppet.

Assembly sequence: Cut and fold Sharun’s white face (note head) ➔ Punch finger holes ➔ Assemble the long note stem ➔ Attach the body and detail parts ➔ Complete the final assembly.

While touching Sharun’s white face, say, "Sharun’s head isn’t black but blank white, right? When you see a note like this, it sounds like ‘one, two’ — two beats." Use this explanation to introduce the concept.

Wrap-up (10 minutes): Place the completed Sharun puppet on your finger and play a ‘2-beat relay vocalization game.’ Following a steady tempo, whenever the teacher signals, raise the finger puppet and say “tta-ah, tta-ah,” practicing the precise 2-beat rhythm through coordinated body movement to conclude the lesson.

[Safety Guidelines]

When making finger puppets, a step involves cutting a square hole in the body or lower part using a knife. Because children using knives directly can be very dangerous, it is strongly advised that teachers or guardians pre-cut these holes beforehand to ensure safety and allow the lesson to proceed smoothly.
