Music Grade 3
Hello from Mrs. Verdichizzi! I miss you all so much and I hope that you are all healthy and safe.
Our time together this year in music is now coming to an end. I thank all of you who participated each week in music activities. I hope you were able to find an activity that you liked from the choices that were listed and that you were able to learn about music notes, sounds, rhythms, and instruments.
If you want to contact me, you still can anytime. Just send an email to mverdich@catskillcsd.org. I will be checking email often and I will respond as soon as possible.
If you have something you would like me to see, you can have your parents/guardians help you take a picture or video of it and attach it to an email that you send me. Please include your name on anything you send me.
I will still check my Music Grade 3 Google Classroom from time to time too, so feel free to leave a message there or check that classroom for activities you can do. You would need to make sure you have joined my classroom by entering this code: odikxvd Give it a try!
I wish you all the best. Remember, be respectful, be responsible, and stay safe and healthy!
Keep singing, keep listening, keep performing, and have fun!

HAVE FUN!
1) Click on this link and enjoy hearing the musical story, "Ah Music."

2) Try the worksheet below titled, "Treble Spelling Bee." Remember to use the two methods we learned in music class for letter naming the notes of the lines and spaces on the music staff. Always start from the bottom line or space of the music staff and use the spelling of the word face - F A C E to remember the names of the space notes, and our burger sentence - Every Good Burger Deserves Fries - to remember the names of the line notes.
When you finish the worksheet, you can have someone help you take a picture of the completed worksheet and email it to me at mverdich@catskillcsd.org.
