The 4th Graders have been creating jingles to promote healthy choices.  Some students have chosen to write a jingle about a food while others have decided to write about exercise or the importance of sleep!  Below are links to some of our jingle performances.  Keep checking back here- I will be adding to the list over the next few weeks!

2nd Grade Studies Instrument Families!

2nd Grade has begun listening to the different instrument families of the orchestra.  We have been discussing the differences between the woodwind and brass families at length because they sound so similar!  Below is the website we visited to listen to instruments we know and had never heard of before.  There are many activities for students on the site, so have fun visiting!  If you try one of the 'home activities', share it with me when you next come to Music!

4th Grade Recorder Centers

Opera Funtime!

5th Grade has been learning about the differences between Opera and Musical performances.  We spent some time with this Opera website last week.  We passed the Opera trivia with an average of 8-10 correct.  Many students asked for the link to play "Whack-a-Tenor".  You will find it below!

Have lots of Opera fun :)
