Our Kindergarteners have used stories to learn about high and low sounds. We've heard The Three Little Pigs, The Three Bears, Bear Can't Sleep and other songs and activities to discover high and low pitches. Recently, we read the book Little Blue and Little Yellow by Leo Lioni and have used colors to make rhythms with syllables and learn about short and long sounds.

Our Kinder friends spent some time on a farm learning songs about animals. We even had some puppets come and visit! We explored our different voices with How to Speak Moo.
We even went on a journey to find fast and slow sounds around the world! We "travelled" to Africa and found a fast song, "Juba." Then, we went to Japan and learned a slow song, "O ma washi," in Japanese! We are also learning to play passing games.
