Updates!
Today kindergartners played on the Orff instruments using mallets. We used the rhyme "Ninety-nine O'Clock". They continue to practice songs from Japan, India and the U.S. to perform after their Parade of Cultures.
March 21st was Bach's birthday! First-graders celebrated by listening to some of his most famous music and figuring out that, if he were alive today, he would be 326 years old.
Second-graders have been learning songs for their Earth Day show. One of the songs uses a few phrases in Swahili.
Third-graders are preparing to read syncopation and to listen to the first movement of Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 in C minor.
Fifth-graders have been learning vocal and instrumental parts for the song "We Are One" and hope to make recordings of it next week.
Recorder players are still earning belts and are preparing to play their first concert: Friday, April 15th, they will play onstage in the gym for an audience of Second-graders. This always creates a lot of excitement among the recorder players, as well as among the audience, who will have a chance to begin playing recorder next fall.
