Happy New Year!

With the start of the year we are exploring people and places around the world!  We are finding where different places are on the map.  We are sharing about our family traditions and foods during music time. In class students will learn about Martin Luther King through song.  We have learned all about:

• Rhythmic Exploration: Being able to recognize and clap simple rhythms after listening

• Repeating the Solfege (Do-Re-Mi): Adding the challenge of also singing it backwards

• Encouraging Sharing Opportunities: Chances to trade or share instruments during music free-play

• Creating their own intervals with a synthesized keyboard
