Louis Armstrong 1901-1971
Charlie Parker 1920-1955
Week of 8/31-9/4
Last week students continued their study of rhythm, using bucket drumming to get practical experience with specific rhythms and vocabulary. We ended the week by finishing our study of half notes. We had a playing quiz this week, also. On Friday, students were able to join my Google Classroom in order to access learning materials and future assignments. All slideshows will be posted as we complete them in class so that students will have access and be able to study and practice independently (from home, if they have a computer or smart phone.)
On Monday 8/31, students will have another vocabulary quiz. We will be learning about the importance of the half rest this week.
