I was completely thrilled about my first week of music class and I hope your child felt the same way. Through singing and movement, children experienced some basic music concepts at an age-appropriate way.
Here are some of our highlights so far:
Grade 1 and 2 students focused on experiencing body percussion and listening for beats vs. rests. Grade 3 students began working on the creation of a "soundscape" by using non-pitched instruments (e.g. wood, metal, membrane and shake/scrape instruments). Grade 4 students had an African experience as they sang and moved to the song Funga Alafia accompanied by the djembe.
