4/26- Music Blog- K, 4,5

1st Grade

1st Grade have started Boomwhackers.
These are pitched instruments in which they play melody to an accompaniment video
to begin learning to read actual notes. 


5th Grade

The 5th grade has been recently learning about Classical Music Composers.
They studied a unit on Jacques Offenbach and his famous piece and dance "The Can-Can"
Here they are learning a choreographed dance routine to the music of Offenbach's Can-Can with the use of rhythm sticks and stools as percussion instruments.

4th Grade

The 4th grade have been working on a project that involved both music and art.







They traced their silhouettes while playing a musical instrument 
and then created collages
 that addressed the following questions. 



Who am I as a musician?
What is my musical personality? 
What traits do I aspire to possess as a musician?
What does music make me think and feel?
