Come Forth Every Day

Welcome to the 2nd Grade 2025-2026 Musical Journey!

 Our Second Grade students will be reviewing

 their treble clef staff note reading skills 

and

their rhythmic recognition of note values and names.

The music classes always begin with a sacred movement song to reinforce concepts of beat/rhythm/melody as we celebrate our love of God!  

Students will work with boom whackers and xylophones, sing, dance, learn about different instruments and hear stories about music from around the world, composers and performers.

Our Goals:

Reading music: Letter names

Understanding Rhythm 

Recognizing different instruments

Performing solo

Performing as a group

Comparing vocal and instrumental music

Using our voices correctly

Using a correct mallet grip

Our new sacred action song is "Get it Read." The Second Graders love to sing and dance as they pray. They continue to review their note values and the letter names of the treble clef staff. Their repertoire is growing as they learn new songs while continuing to polish songs for upcoming performances.

They are working hard learning the accompaniment for Yo Tengo Un Amigo Que Me Ama on the Boomwhackers. It is challenging to sing and remember when to play.

These musicians reviewed our treble clef note names and the note values for whole, half, quarter and a pair of eighth notes. They had a great deal of fun using that knowledge to play the Boomwhackers.

They prepared the Responsorial Psalm for the September 8th Mass and sang a song  in preparation for Hispanic Heritage month.
