This week we focused on Thanksgiving.
Kindergarten
Our focus was on feeling fast and slow beat.
- Sang about eating Turkey! The song went slower the more turkey we ate...until we fell asleep.
- Listened to Air and Badinerie both by Bach
- moved how the music made us feel
- decided which piece was fast and which was slow
- tried to find the beat
- used beat to speed our singing up or slow it down
- played the hand drum to show beat
Grade 1/2
Our focus this week was solo singing and pitch matching
- Played Five Fat Turkeys
- identified different Timbre's of voices
- sang solo and matched pitch
- played a fun guessing game
Grade 3/4
