Kindergarten: this week we are learning Engine,Engine no. 9. It's a great way to get them moving and playing some instruments. We also reviewed Funga Alafia from last week. It's so precious to hear their singing voices!!
First grade: If your child is in first grade, ask them about Ebeneezer Sneezer. They seemed to enjoy this silly guy.
Second grade: we practiced a classic, Sally Go Round the Sun. They caught on fast and we added some instruments. They also met my " pet bird," Mr. Raisin who likes to be sung to.
Fourth and Fifth Grade: Fourth graders shared a small portion of what they learned last year with recorders. In light of peace day and constitution day coming up, we practiced "This is America" and a "Song of Peace." We also did some rhythm exercises on chairs. All sounded great!!
Third Grade: Third grade recorder information will be sent out beginning today. We will be practicing our "Song of Peace" along with other patriotic songs. We will also be reviewing the music staff in a game we play!
*Fourth graders should start to bring their recorders from home if they have one. If not, we have school recorders that are sanitized after every use.
** Class DoJo codes have been sent out. This is an optional website which allows parents to check up and see how his/her student is doing in music. Comments include: "On Task," "Participating," "Helping Others," "Distracted," and "Off Task." Please email me if you have any questions!! This is for you to view at home. We do not look at these during classes.
Again, feel free to contact me at [email protected] if you have any questions!
Thank you!
