so our composer of the month for January was camille st saens and we had a lot of fun listening and acting out the Carnival of the Animals. My 1st and 3rd graders completed a writing activity describing their experience with carnival of the animals. They did an excellent job writing and Illustrating the piece.
February's composer is going to be John Williams. I plan to use some awesome listening glyphs and my ITunes account to download his awesome movie music.
February is another busy month with black history month/jazz month, Valentine's day, 100th day of school, jump rope for heart events (taking my kids from music class but a very good cause). My lesson plans are chalk full of fun stuff. We are also learning some songs in preparation for the concert for music in our schools month next month. We worked on "we the people" this week and had an awesome history/geography/music lesson.
I also had to decorate the front bulletin boards at Holden this month because it's music/PEs month to do this task. They turned out great! Will try and get some pictures soon.
