This week (10/24-10/28)

This week in....

Kindergarten- students sang and acted out "I'm a Little Ghost." We listened to several songs and decided whether walking or jogging fit best with each. We sang and danced to the "Hokey Pokey", learned a Halloween poem, and moved to show music getting louder and softer.

1st/2nd grade- students were assessed on their knowledge of the musical opposites. We also followed a listening map to go with the spooky piece "In the Hall of the Mountain King." Students sang "Pick a Pumpkin" while patting the strong and weak beats.

3rd/4th grade- students played "Hot Cross Buns" on recorders and learned to play "Gently Sleep." Students worked on matching pitch with singing part of the song "Hey Jack!" We continued to learn to read notes on the staff with Mad Minutes and practiced singing and doing sign language with the song "Sing."

5th grade- students played "Gently Sleep" and other songs on recorders. We also began learning "Wavin' Flag" in Spanish and began watching part of the film "Sister Act 2."

Sing along tomorrow at 2:45pm!
Happy Halloween!
