Well it's Wednesday and there is 1 more day in this school week. No school for kiddos on Friday! Teachers have Professional Development training.
We have had a super week in music class!
PK has done 2 Quaver lessons. The first one was about 5 green frogs who were sitting on a log and couldn't count backwards from 5-1. They asked a dragonfly for help. After learning this story, we sang the song "5 green and speckled frogs". The second lesson was about high and low and magic words. Our friends Boobam and Songbird never got a sucker from their bird friend because they didn't say the word "Please". After learning this story, we sang a song called "High Low Wherever You Go(please say please and thank you).
We used scarves to move to high and low sounds in Tchaikovsky's Chinese Dance from the Nutcracker.
Kindergarten has had a super fun week. We had an introduction to rhythm this week. We used rhythm sticks, scarves, and beanbags to help us with this lesson. We sang a few songs we have learned in the past few weeks also with this lesson. Kindergarten also played a fun game called "ABC Sing With Me" and we learned about rest (silent beats) in this game.
1st grade used rhythm sticks to echo some rhythmic patterns that I played for them. We watched a Quaver video about rhythm. We learned that bar lines help make measures.
Overall, it's been another fantastic week in the music classroom at Chapmanville Primary!!
