These classes have enjoyed mixing pop culture, video games, movement, and classical music in our "Grow a Garden" lessons! We have created a movement story for "Morning Mood" by Edvard Grieg and performed a circle dance with "Rondo Alla Turka" by Mozart. Everyone has enjoyed being creative by improvising sunny v. stormy gardens with crescendo and decrescendo.
Our 4th graders are preparing for our Veterans Day Celebration. They will perform We Love Our Veterans on November 10th at 9:30 and 11:15. Be on the lookout for your invitation.
We have explored movement with two different stories. We practiced silent movement like a mime with Be a Friend and did vocal and pathway exploration with Lines that Wiggle. We also learned a circle dance to "I Like You."
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.
