Congratulations to the fifth graders on a Broadway-worthy Spring Sing performance!! Next week each class in first through fourth grades will have a "sharing day," which is their chance to perform for one another during their music time. If your child plays an instrument, takes a dance class, etc., and would like to share his talent with his peers, this is his chance! Students have been informed which day their "sharing day" will take place, so they should come prepared if they plan on performing for the class!
This week, the kindergarteners enjoyed performing a folk dance called "Kinderpolka."
First graders played several unpitched percussion instruments to a Spanish song in AB form. We discovered that students in Miss Shapiro's class know how to count to ten in five different languages!
Second graders reviewed macrobeat and microbeat by playing a singing game called "Cobbler, Cobbler Pass the Shoe. They also enjoyed doing a body percussion memory activity.
Third graders added the shekere part to their drumming ensemble this week, so now they know the low and high drum parts, the cowbell, and the shekere parts.
Fourth graders worked on a drumming ensemble this week. They learned parts for the low an high drums, cowbell, and shekere. They also enjoyed the "Question of the Day" drumming activity.
The fifth graders did a fantastic job in their Spring Sing! They learned about different Broadway shows and all kinds of different songs from Broadway musicals. They worked really hard and should be very proud of their performance!
