Presently, when the music classes have been taught in the typical classrooms of primary schools, there are some conditions such as time limit, the number of instructors and the number of students leading to the change of such teaching method. As a result, teaching method needs to be adapted to be a group teaching. The group teaching on traditional Thai musical instruments; however, is a challenging issue for teachers. This is because teachers have to create a teaching plan with several concerns including classroom management, teaching content and materials in order to achieve the expected course learning outcomes. The challenge in group teaching on playing musical instruments is to find a teaching technique which assists both teachers and students to accomplish their targets of understanding and practicing skills in&nbsp;<em>Khim</em>&nbsp;playing. This paper aims to present a teaching technique on the&nbsp;<em>Khim</em>&nbsp;instrument for primary school students. The study is based on the findings of a classroom action research. According to the research findings, the article is divided into three main parts: 1) the principal of practical teaching, 2) group teaching, and 3) memory stimulation technique. The teaching methods for developing memory skills are divided into three steps which are practicing on the&nbsp;<em>Khim</em> chart, coloring the sound points, and playing by imaging.</p> ER -
